Abstract

According to some institutes or researchers, artificial intelligence has been gathering momentum for several years now, and its recent developments, such as text and image generation, have turned it into an unavoidable topic relating to current transformation of the workplace. In addition, against the background of unceasing predictions in the media about the disappearance of jobs, this article aims to examine the current impact of artificial intelligence on specific professions and explore how the future of this technology is being evaluated. To this end, the article employs an analysis of adocumentary body composed of videos, journals, and notices produced by labour unions specifically targeting executive occupations. The article also aims to compare strategies and proposals that have been implemented by German and French trade unions. The research has sought to pinpoint the various issues relating to artificial intelligence identified by labour unions based on their strategic orientation and shifts in the treatment of this subject over the past years. In professions where unionisation is sometimes stigmatised, these are sectors in which certain tasks are directly affected by AI. The definition of artificial intelligence, both for union members and institutions, the level of regulation, and analysis of the impact of AI on work (revealing discrepancies in professions relevant to the unions) are topics that stand out the most in the documentation that has been produced
