A Pew Research Center poll spanning 37 countries found that a median of 46% of respondents believe artificial intelligence will destroy more jobs than it generates. Only 9% of those surveyed expect AI to result in a net increase in employment.
OpenAI published an analysis arguing that as AI systems approach or exceed human-level cognitive performance, policymakers need to prepare economic tools now rather than waiting for disruption to occur, as happened during past technological shifts like the Industrial Revolution. The piece frames AGI as fundamentally different from past automation waves because it could automate intelligence itself rather than just routine tasks, potentially affecting a much broader swath of jobs and industries simultaneously.
