US Unions Push for AI Worker Protection Amid Job Loss Concerns

Imagine robots and smart programs taking over jobs, like writing or driving.

Unions in the US are worried because this could make many people lose their jobs.

They want companies to be open about using AI and to protect workers.

Some places are trying to stop self-driving trucks, but it's not easy.

Some unions are winning, like getting AI rules in contracts.

Meanwhile, a sad story: a woman says an AI chatbot caused her son's death, and the court is listening.

It is a reminder that AI needs to be handled carefully.
