"IMF Warns: AI Set to Disrupt 40% of Global Jobs and Deepen Inequality"

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) predicts that artificial intelligence (AI) will impact nearly 40% of all jobs, potentially exacerbating inequality, with higher-income and younger workers likely to see wage increases while lower-income and older workers may fall behind. The IMF urges policymakers to address this trend and implement comprehensive social safety nets and retraining programs to make the AI transition more inclusive. As global leaders gather at the World Economic Forum, AI regulation is a hot topic, with the EU, China, and the US all taking steps to regulate the use and development of AI.
