& Economic Implication

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming industries and societies worldwide with opportunities for automation, efficiency, and innovation. There are concerns regarding potential job displacement, especially for workers who may face challenges adapting to evolving job markets. Without appropriate support measures in place, AI could exacerbate existing socioeconomic inequalities, widening wealth disparities. Proactive measures are essential to mitigate these risks and foster an inclusive transition to an automated economy, which includes investing in education and training programs aimed at equipping workers with the skills required for the jobs of the future. Implementing policies to support displaced workers through retraining initiatives and job placement assistance can help alleviate the effect of automation-induced job loss. Fostering a lifelong learning and adaptation culture is crucial to preparing individuals to navigate the evolving landscape of technological change. By promoting continuous education and upskilling, organizational leaders can better equip their workforce to thrive in an increasingly automated world while mitigating the adverse effects on those most vulnerable to displacement. Through refractive thinking, addressing the challenges of automation requires a multifaceted approach that prioritizes economic stability and social equity.
