Closed petition: Introduce a tax on AI usage & modify AI regulation to help UK jobs & workers

Closed on

We call on the Government to introduce a tax on AI usage to fund worker retraining and require AI impact assessments. We want the Government to protect workers from large-scale automation that may result from AI.

We are concerned that AI tools and advanced automation may be rapidly displacing human labour in multiple sectors. We believe that without Government intervention, we risk widespread job losses, wage depression, and social instability. We believe taxing AI usage can help fund retraining, while impact assessments can ensure responsible deployment. We believe that by doing this, the UK can preserve domestic jobs, protect vulnerable workers, and future proof our economy.
