Symposium abstract
The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the workplace has been tremendous, yet the impact of AI tools remains uncertain for underrepresented groups in the workplace. For this symposium, we are seeking passionate scholars to share their expertise and insights on the positive and negative impacts of AI on underrepresented groups in the workplace, including women, migrants, refugees, older workers, employees with disabilities, LGBTQ individuals, and indigenous employees. We invite conceptual and empirical papers that explore the effects of AI adoption in the workplace on these groups. Submissions from cross-cultural contexts are particularly welcome.
We look forward to receiving your initial short abstract by November 29, 2024.
Warm regards,
Xiaoxia Zhu, Huong Le, and Jill Bradley-Geist
