In this episode of our podcast series, The AI Workplace, Sam Sedaei (associate, Chicago) and Hera Arsen (Director of Content) discuss recent developments in the rapidly evolving world of artificial intelligence (AI) and its application in the workplace. Sam and Hera delve into a proposed federal regulation that aims to prevent states from regulating AI for the next decade. They also discuss a significant collective action, which alleges that an employer’s use of AI-based hiring tools resulted in age, race, and disability-related discrimination. The podcast wraps up with an overview of new regulations in California concerning employers’ use of AI and automated decision-making systems. The regulations, which may take effect as early as July 1, 2025, clarify that using this technology to make employment decisions may violate the state’s anti-discrimination laws and outline the limitations on such use.
