AWARE Act
The AWARE Act directs the Bureau of Labor Statistics to start collecting data on how artificial intelligence is used in the workplace. This federal agency will gather information from both employers and workers regarding AI adoption, changes to job tasks, and impacts on hiring and wages. The bill requires this new data collection to begin within 18 months of the law's enactment. By expanding the agency's existing surveys, the legislation aims to provide better insights into how AI technology is reshaping the labor market.
