Artificial intelligence and jobs
How artificial intelligence and automation change the number and kinds of jobs, what protections and retraining workers whose work they take over get, and whether AI's profits are taxed or shared with the public.
What they call for
DemocratsRepublicans2 new members addressed this issue (with these filters). Many call for more than one thing.
Encourage AI development to create good-paying jobs
2 members“Johnny understands that AI is part of the future of job creation, economic growth, and increased government efficiency, and he is committed to making sure the United States is the global leader in the artificial intelligence sector.”View on their website ↗
“We can’t win the AI race without building the needed infrastructure here at home. That means investing in and utilizing the American workforce to build it, oversee it, and ensure the technology companies we use to create that infrastructure do so while respecting the principles of free speech, innovation, and our shared American values.”View on their website ↗
Retrain and prepare workers for jobs changed by AI
1 member“He also believes Americans should be equipped to harness these tools responsibly — expanding workforce training and education so more citizens can use AI to become more productive, competitive, and successful.”View on their website ↗
“I agree that we must capitalize on the enormous opportunities AI presents for productivity and economic growth. But we cannot leave American workers behind in the process. If we are asking our workforce to help America win the global race for AI leadership, we must also equip them with the skills needed to succeed in that future.”View on their website ↗
“That’s why I strongly support skilled job training that teaches workers how to use AI to enhance their work — not replace it. We should establish a strong baseline of education and training so American workers become more productive, more competitive, and never obsolete. We have to develop AI in a way that maintains and enhances the identity of workers who are made in the image of God, rather than undermining their God-given identities.”View on their website ↗
