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.
On 27 December 2010, the carmaker Audi announced its plans to create some 1,200 jobs in Germany in 2011. The company launched a new investment programme worth 11.6 billion euros which it wants to spend on new products, technologies and the enlargement of its sites between 2011 and 2015. Around 5 billion euros will be invested into Audi's sites in Ingolstadt and Neckarsulm.
