Will AI create more jobs than it destroys?

Question

No, AI won't create more jobs than it destroys. Experts predict that AI could create 58 million jobs, which is significant but not enough to negate the 375 million jobs it will remove over the next ten years.

This doesn't mean that there won't be more jobs from other sources to take their place. Businesses will likely be able to create more positions that revolve around creativity than mundane tasks with the introduction of AI, which will at least help offset this job loss.

However, it will be important for companies to quickly train and shift their employees over to new positions to prevent a significant economic downturn, especially since many of these employees will need to change occupations and learn an entirely new set of skills.
