AI and its impact on productivity and employment

the UN paper reminds us that for now at least, most of the disruption is in low-skilled work, and with that in mind, it argues that most of this disruption will occur in the developing world.

That isn’t to say that low-wage workers in western countries won’t be disrupted, not at all, but it argues that entire jobs are set to be eliminated entirely in the developing world.

This apparent disparity is in large part because the jobs that will become fully automated have largely disappeared from the western world already. So work may be brought back to the western world, but it will be done by robots rather than people.
