AI in 2024: Five trends workers need to know

The influence of artificial intelligence stands to make an even bigger impact this year in areas including hiring bias, inclusivity, regulation and more.

• AI的影響力繼續在今年帶來更大的衝擊，受影響的層面包含了hiring bias 聘用偏見、inclusivity 包容、regulation 規範等等。

Now that generative AI has been on employees' radars for more than a year, they're not only better positioned to understand its place in the contemporary work landscape, but also equipped to embrace the changes and possibility that comes with it.

• be positioned、be equipped：被動語態，說明受雇者在AI趨勢中處於什麼樣的狀態。
• position：位置或定位，指受雇者的立足點。
• equip：裝備物品的動作，在這裡則是指受雇者已經裝備好應對AI的能力或心態。

1. AI will encourage widespread inclusivity Artificial intelligence is likely to become a powerful tool for workers with disabilities – and those advances could drive change for all people. […]For example, as large language models continue to refine real-time, multilingual closed captioning, all people will have access to a wider and more diverse range of information.

• advance：進階、進步，可以當動詞或名詞使用，這裡是指人工智慧的發展。
• Closed captioning ：縮寫是cc ，也就是串流影片上會看到的字幕功能。
• access：途徑、管道，have access to something就是有管道可以取得某個事物

1. AI will make hiring – and layoff – processes more equitable Human-resource professionals are already prepared to use artificial intelligence in the hiring process to create a more equitable hiring landscape, but the current technology is far from perfect. In response, academics and industry experts are working to reduce algorithmic bias on electronic hiring platforms and other HR tools through AI.

• Far from ：表示完全否定的意思，例如far from perfect就是一點都不完美，far from enough就是根本不夠。
• algorithmic bias：演算法偏見，algorithmic是演算法algorithm的形容詞。

1. Workplaces will use AI to centre diversity in hiring and training  Beyond levelling the playing field for applications, evolving AI tools may also help to ensure traditionally marginalised people are not starting a new job on the back foot.

• Level the playing field：創造所有人公平競爭的環境
• marginalize：(V)邊緣化，邊緣是margin，紙張的邊緣就會說the margin of paper。
• on the back foot：用後腳站，延伸含義是處於劣勢或是失去優勢。

1. Employees want to work with AI, and employers will invest in upskilling While some experts say concerns about AI replacing some roles are valid, they also have simultaneously predicted that it won't eliminate all human jobs. Instead, workers will evolve to co-exist with this emerging technology, and the employees who are willing to learn and adapt to AI will see the greatest benefits.

• Invest in 是投資在某個事物
• upskill 是由up向上和skill技能兩個字組成，意思就是提升技能。在AI出現之後，雇主會投資更多來提升員工的技能。
• Emerging ：新興的、新出現的，由emerge 出現這個動詞衍伸的形容詞，例如新興經濟體 emerging economy。
• Adapt to：適應某件事物，後面會接上名詞，例如adapt to a new environment 適應新的環境。

1. AI regulation will continue to struggle to keep pace with the technology  As AI has come into mainstream usage, some technology leaders are calling for a push to define its boundaries. Regulators are tasked with expanding the technology, while also protecting the rights – and occupations – of a diverse human workforce.

• Struggle to ：掙扎著做什麼，表示做這件事很辛苦，例如：struggle to find a job很難找工作。
• Keep pace with ：保持和誰一樣的步調，或是跟上誰的腳步。
• Mainstream ：(adj) 主流，例如主流文化 mainstream culture。
• Call for ：呼籲、要求或是號召的意思，商業上常聽到call for proposal 就是號召大家提案。
• Task是一項任務或工作，在這裡則是動詞的被動語態be tasked with被交付任務。 Workforce 指的是勞動人口，或是一間公司的整體員工。例如：The company has a workforce of 50 people.
