Artificial intelligence is projected to impact nearly 40% of all jobs, potentially exacerbating inequality, according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
The IMF suggests that AI will likely worsen overall inequality and policymakers should address this issue to prevent social tensions.
In advanced economies, AI is expected to affect around 60% of jobs, with some workers benefiting from increased productivity while others may face job displacement.
Low-income countries may be less affected by AI due to lack of infrastructure and skilled workforces.
The IMF recommends establishing social safety nets and retraining programs to make the AI transition more inclusive.
