On 20 July 14:30-16:00 (CEST) we discussed the special focus on the 2023 edition of the OECD Employment Outlook - the impact of AI on the labour market. See the Replay here
Progress in AI has been such that, in some areas, its output has become indistinguishable from that of humans. These rapid developments, combined with the falling costs of producing and adopting these new technologies, suggest that OECD economies may be on the cusp of an AI revolution which could fundamentally change the workplace. While there are many potential benefits from AI, there are also significant risks that need to be urgently addressed. Policies and social dialogue can play a key role in mitigating these risks while not stifling the benefits. However, this requires better evidence, and the 2023 edition of the OECD Employment Outlook contributes to this goal.
