| dc.description.abstract | This article advocates the opinion that the right to work, recognized as a fundamental right of every person, is becoming increasingly difficult to exercise in the Republic of Bulgaria, despite its formal enshrinement in the Constitution. The state not only fails to guarantee its realization, but also does not create the necessary conditions for its enforcement. The article indicates the main obstacles to the right to work, but the emphasis is placed on the digitalization of labor and the introduction of artificial intelligence. Author’s special attention is paid to two of the most essential professions in any society, including Bulgaria – medicine and law. Artificial intelligence and related applications are displacing and rendering individual human labour in-creasingly unnecessary, which negatively affects the right to work. At this stage of development, technologies, software programs, ChatGPT, Zoom, Skype, Copilot, and many other forms of artificial intelligence still play a supporting role and do not yet pose an obvious threat of unemployment. However, the growing obsolescence of highly skilled labour and the loss of human relevance in the competition with increas-ingly advanced technologies should soon be expected. | |
