An Act providing for a report on artificial intelligence in the workforce; and imposing duties on the Department of Labor and Industry and Department of Community and Economic Development.
This bill directs Pennsylvania state agencies to conduct a comprehensive study on how artificial intelligence will affect the state's workforce and submit the findings to the General Assembly within 18 months. The report must identify which industries and worker demographics are most at risk of job displacement, outline the skills and education needed to adapt to this technology, and assess how much relevant workforce data is currently available or privately owned. By requiring collaboration with various stakeholders, the legislation aims to create a proactive plan that ensures access to necessary training and expertise for all segments of the current and future workforce.
