Robots Stole Blue Collar Jobs, Now AI Is Coming for White Collar Workers

#artificialintelligence

Robots might be taking over the blue-collar jobs of less-educated Americans, but artificial intelligence (AI) is poised to shake up college-educated employees in higher paying jobs, leaving no worker immune to the impact of technology on the American workforce. "[AI] will be used more extensively by the most high-paid and many of the best-educated workers," says Mark Muro, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institute. "Automation has usually tended to affect lower-pay workers. AI is going to be highly prevalent in the middle class, white collar office. It was surprising to see how clearly that jumped out."
