Summaries and Speakers
Impacts of Artificial Intelligence on Labour Relations
Artificial intelligence is the field of computer science that seeks to create systems through the development of algorithms that can recognise patterns, analyse images and other content, make medical diagnoses and make a range of decisions that can make everyday life easier for society. It’s no different in the field of employment relations, where we see software responsible for screening CVs, assessing emotions via video and even employee productivity. This presentation will try to present basic concepts about artificial intelligence and how it works, allowing us to understand the reason for the machine’s potential biases, as well as provide examples of tools that affect labour relations and how to implement them with legal certainty in a national context that has not yet been explicitly regulated, and finally, it will address key points of the main legal frameworks under discussion in the Brazilian legislative context.
