What is the impact of AI on employees?
As AI’s integration into society continues to grow, it is important to consider both its advantages and disadvantages. To maximise the benefits and minimise potential drawbacks of AI, proactive measures are needed. Scitechdaily reported that a research study by the American Psychological Association revealed that employees who engage frequently with artificial intelligence systems (AI) are more likely than others to feel loneliness. This can lead to insomnia or increased drinking after work. The study included participants from the United States as well as Taiwan, Indonesia and Malaysia. Its findings were consistent across cultures.
