A report from the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) reveals that nearly 8 million jobs in the UK are at risk of being lost due to advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), with women, younger workers, and those on lower wages most vulnerable. The report warns that entry level, part-time, and administrative roles are particularly susceptible to automation, as AI technology rapidly develops. The IPPR estimates that currently 11% of tasks across various job sectors are at risk of being replaced by AI, but this could rise to 59% in the future. The thinktank urges government, employers, and unions to take action to prevent a "jobs apocalypse."
