AI Workforce Impact
The broad economic effects of AI on employment — encompassing job displacement, job creation, wage changes, and the transformation of existing roles through AI augmentation.
The IMF estimates that 40% of global employment (1.32 billion jobs) has significant exposure to AI transformation. While 85 million jobs may be displaced, 97 million new roles are projected to emerge. AI job postings have grown 5.4x since 2019, with median AI engineer salaries reaching $185,000 in the US. 55% of companies are actively upskilling their workforce, and 26% of workers now use AI tools daily.
