INTERVIEW: Shaping AI or Being Shaped by It?

News
USF

AI is reshaping power, politics and society. The question is, who will shape AI? What does AI mean for workers, democracy, and our collective future?

In this timely conversation, we sit down with Karen Hao, author of Empire of AI, to unpack the politics behind today’s most influential technologies. As AI reshapes industries, workplaces, and societies, understanding how it works—and who controls it—has never been more urgent.

From a trade union perspective, this isn’t just a technical issue. It’s about power, rights, and the future of work. How do we protect workers in the age of automation? What does accountability look like when AI systems shape decisions affecting millions? And why should unions be at the forefront of this debate?

We explore why understanding AI is essential to defending democracy, and how workers can play a crucial role in shaping its development rather than being subjected to it.

If you care about the future of work, digital rights, and social justice, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
