About this listen

Meriem Regragui (Université Internationale de Rabat) delivers her talk, “How Will AI Transform Labour Rights?” at the What Are We Talking About When We Talk About AI? Symposium. October 9, 2025 at the University of Connecticut Humanities Institute.

In this episode, Meriem Regragui outlines the increasingly complicated relationship between AI and labor rights, particularly around how laws should be enacted to protect workers and their rights to dignity, privacy, and fair treatment. This issue is not only local, but also international in a way that forces a reconfiguration of employability, social protection, and redistribution. The revaluing of labor has thus become foundational to understanding the role of AI within broader conversations of labor rights. For Regragui, one of the most pressing issues for the future will be to clarify from a legal perspective what an equitable right to work will look like in the AI era. The human being must ultimately be at the center of these discussions.
