AI could replace three in five workers, warns an IMF report, signaling potential job loss and lower salaries. Discover the implications for the future of work.
According to a new International Monetary Fund (IMF) report, artificial intelligence (AI) could potentially replace three in five workers, with some jobs potentially disappearing altogether. The IMF also warned of lower salaries and cuts in hiring as a result of AI integration. A separate study from PwC revealed that bosses in Britain are adopting AI technology at a faster rate than their counterparts in the US, China, and Europe, which could have a larger impact on British workers. The IMF also noted that while younger workers could benefit from AI, older workers may struggle to adapt.

Knowledge work was never work
Knowledge work was always coordination between humans who couldn't share state directly. The artifacts were never the work. They were the overhead — and AI just made the overhead optional.
