This research explores the subservice AI framework and its usefulness in four aspects, namely, identifying benefits, privacy issues, and ethical concerns, for gig workers regarding compliance with Labor Laws on digital backgrounds. That is why, as the gig work grows, companies such as Uber and DoorDash more often use AI systems to monitor working hours, wages, and contractual terms that seek to enhance compliance with labour rights. However, AI monitoring is usually achieved by collecting large amounts of data that cause privacy issues and ethical issues like the ‘panopticon issue’ which affects the independence and health of the workers under constant surveillance. Employing an interpretivist philosophy with an inductive, exploratory research design, this study draws from secondary qualitative data in scholarly publications to assess the effects of AI on compliance monitoring. The thematic analysis shows that there are the post-possible enhancements that can be delivered by AI and at the same time it also signifies what cannot be done by AI. It is followed by the recommendation of separating the Human and AI monitoring, transparency, and acts of privacy control to the gig workers themselves to maintain the equal and fair treatment of the gig economy without soaring into invasive compliance and ethics in the digital world.
