More than 200 trade union members and technologists gathered in Sacramento this week at a first -of-its-kind conference to discuss how AI and other tech threatens workers.

Union representatives detailed ways AI threatens jobs, from screenwriting to driving taxis to ringing people up as a cashier.

The gathering comes as President-elect Donald Trump prepares to begin his second administration.

AI that makes predictions about workers, manages workers, or attempts to track and quantify their every move is also a major risk, says UC Berkeley Labor Center director Annette Bernhardt .

SAG-AFTRA executive director and chief negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland said that AI underscores why itâs important for workers to organize.
