Chapter 1 · AI is the future of work

More jobs are being created than replaced.

Employers around the world told the World Economic Forum what they expect by 2030. AI changes jobs; people who learn to use it get ahead.

170Mnew jobs created worldwide by 2030
92Mjobs displaced, mostly routine information work
78Mmore jobs overall: the net gain
The fear“AI will take all the jobs.”The facts

Employers expect 170 million new jobs and 92 million lost by 2030: a net gain of 78 million.

The fear“Only programmers will do well.”The facts

Care, health and education roles are among the jobs adding the most workers, and most jobs will be changed by AI rather than replaced.

The fear“I should stay away from AI.”The facts

AI and big data is the fastest-growing skill employers name. Learn to use it well, and honestly, in your studies.
