Ethics in the digital workplace
Digitisation and automation technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), can affect working conditions in a variety of ways and their use in the workplace raises a host of new ethical concerns.
According to German car manufacturer Audi, the Bavarian-based company did create 300 new jobs for university graduates in 2006 and plans to create about 350 new jobs for engineers and other university-trained personnel in 2007. About half of the new staff will be employed in the development division. Audi currently employs 44,970 people throughout Germany.
