What the petition asks
Make it illegal for jobs to be replaced by artificial intelligence and automation technology. The government needs to develop and pass strict employment and discrimination laws for the use of artificial intelligence in the workplace.
We want to avoid mass job losses. Some roles are at risk with little or no alternative employment opportunities available.
