"Survey Shows AI's Impact on Workforce and Job Prospects"

TL;DR Summary
A survey by staffing provider Adecco Group reveals that 41% of senior executives at large companies expect AI technology to lead to smaller workforces in the next five years. While AI is seen as a game changer, most executives feel they have not made enough progress in adopting the technology. Adecco's CEO emphasizes the need for companies to prepare for AI disruption by training their staff to work with AI, rather than relying on recruiting specialists from outside. The survey, conducted at 2,000 large companies worldwide, highlights the potential for AI to both eliminate repetitive tasks and create new roles, while also posing a threat of job losses.
