币界网报道:New research from professional services firm PwC finds that despite widespread concerns that artificial intelligence will replace jobs and cut employee salaries through automation, AI is actually making humans “more valuable, not less valuable.” “The reason people are anxious in this environment is the speed of technological innovation. The reality is that it’s happening at an unprecedented pace,” said Joe Atkinson, PwC’s global AI chief executive. “The report actually shows that AI is creating jobs,” Atkinson said. “We know that every industrial revolution has created more jobs than it has lost,” said Carol Stubbings, PwC’s global chief commercial officer for the UK. “The challenge is that the skills required for new jobs may be very different from the old ones.” According to the 2025 AI Jobs Barometer, employment and wages for almost all “AI-related occupations,” which include tasks that can be handled by AI technology, including customer service staff, software programmers and other highly automated jobs, are growing. The report analyzed more than 800 million job ads and thousands of corporate financial reports across six continents, dispelling six common myths about the impact of AI: Productivity: Since 2022, productivity in AI-intensive industries has increased nearly fourfold, and per capita income has increased three times faster than in other industries. Wages: Workers with AI skills have an average wage that is 56% higher, up from 25% last year. Wages in industries with the greatest AI impact are growing twice as fast as those in industries with the least impact. Number of jobs: From 2019 to 2024, employment in AI-low-penetration occupations will grow by 65%, and employment growth in AI-high-penetration occupations will also remain strong (38%). Inequality: AI-related jobs require fewer formal educations, creating broader opportunities for "millions of people". Skills: AI frees workers from tedious tasks, allowing them to practice more complex skills and increase the value of their jobs. Automation: Salaries for highly automated jobs are rising, and jobs are becoming more complex and creative. The study also pointed out that AI brings moderate employment growth in countries with declining working-age populations, improves productivity, fills job gaps, and drives business growth. The report emphasizes that AI should be regarded as a "growth strategy" and companies should help employees adapt to changes, jointly create new opportunities and sources of income, avoid being limited to automating old jobs, and create new jobs and industries in the future.
