No toda la inteligencia es artificial: viejas y nuevas formas de precarización en la economía digital

Abstract

This article aims to investigate the main features of work and employment in the digital age, considering the likely effects of digital technologies on the labor market and the disruptive panorama that is glimpsed with the rapid introduction of tools linked to Artificial Intelligence.  The text focuses first on the analyses that emerge in developed countries, with the intention of examining the issue in the light of the structural characteristics of Latin American labor markets and the progressive implementation of work on physical platforms. The analysis of digital jobs reveals new features of precariousness in the absence of trade unions, weakness of labor organizations and insufficient actions by governments to regulate the aforementioned jobs.
