Experts discuss the impact of AI on the job market

One theme I keep seeing in companies is that their “AI Policy” groups they set up in 2023 are now barriers. Often they were built to address potential ethical, privacy & security concerns that are no longer relevant with today’s AI (there are new concerns) and are unable to adapt

Based on both the best available survey data from a few months ago, and the rate of internal AI adoption I am seeing at many companies, I think it is pretty unlikely that AI is having a big impact on employment in a real way, at least not yet.

CEOs are now saying it out loud. AI will take away (a lot of) jobs. Ford (alone) says #AI will wipe out 50% of all white collar jobs. #FutureOfWork #HR #Leadership buff.ly/UKF5NCD pic.x.com/7D9ykRYa7Q
