In this seminar, Professor Arroyo will examine, from a gender-intersectional perspective, how the development of artificial intelligence is reshaping labour markets, as well as its broader implications for the future of work in the European Union. She will also address the challenges this transformation poses for labour public policy within the Union, emphasizing the need for inclusive responses that ensure no one is left behind.
