For the first time in generations, there is no guarantee that the lives of our children will be better and more prosperous than ours. Currently, the odds are they will be worse. This book asks the questions we should all be asking right now to ensure we play a much-needed role in shaping our futures. The AI Alarm Bell will: Highlight the industries and jobs most vulnerable to the growth in AI, and show how even career choices that were considered safe are at risk Explore the roles that AI cannot replicate, at least for now Identify new categories of jobs that we have currently barely thought about Define the potential impact on the world economy and how it will affect specific regions Outline the policy levers we have at our disposal that could be used to see off the worst shocks of AI stagflation
