Abstract

The advance of artificial intelligence has profoundly transformed working conditions, marking a shift from decent work to emerging work. This article analyzes how the lack of state regulation regarding new technologies leads to the erosion of fundamental labor rights and deepens the digital divide. It argues that equitable access to artificial intelligence must be recognized as an emerging human right, essential to ensuring equal opportunities, preventing new forms of discrimination, and safeguarding the principles of social justice within the future of work.
