But AIspy is especially worthwhile, because every bit of data is potentially valuable. Where does all this lead? AI ought to improve productivity. Some employees will appreciate more feedback on their work and wele a sense of how to do better. In addition, machines can help ensure that pay rises and promotions go to those who deserve them. Algorithms (計算程序 ), if designed correctly, can be more neutral. But what if their programmers are prejudiced? Algorithms can also have unintended consequences. The length of a mute (通勤時間 ) may predict whether an employee will quit a job, but this focus may harm poorer applicants. Older staff might work more slowly than younger ones and could risk losing their positions if all AI looks for is productivity. And AIspy may feel Orwellian—a sensitive matter now that people have begun to question how much Facebook and other tech giants know about their private lives. Firms can use AI to examine not just employees’ professional munications but their socialmedia profiles, too. The clue is in Slack’s name, which stands for “searchable log of all conversation and knowledge”. As regulators and employers weigh the pros and cons of AI in the workplace, three principles ought to guide its spread. First, personal information should not be included in data where possible. Microsoft, for example, has a product that shows individuals how they manage their time in the office, but gives managers information only in collective form. Second, the use of AI ought to be transparent (透明的 ). Employees should be told what technologies are being used in their workplaces and which data are being gathered. Last, countries should let individuals request their own data, whether they are exworkers wishing to doubt a dismissal or jobseekers hoping to demonstrate their ability to prospective employers.

However, we are disappointed to see in the right pie chart that only 55 percent of the people are willing to donate their blood while 34% are not. Another 11% even say they are indifferent to it. Recently many hospitals need blood desperately. If we donate our blood actively, we may not only help the person who needs it but also realize our selfvalue. Meanwhile, when we need blood, others will reach out their hands. Besides, helping others is a traditional Chinese virtue, our small act of kindness makes a great difference to people in need and even transforms their lives. Personally, I’ll make great efforts to help people around me and I’ll donate my pocket money to Project Hope to help students in poverty so that they can receive an equal chance of education. Plus, I am willing to donate my blood if possible. (157words)
