Most U.S. workers are not anxious about the impact of AI in the workplace, but instead, view it as a potential helpmate that can eliminate tedious tasks, according to a survey conducted by KPMG. While some workers are concerned about the role that AI will play in their careers, the majority do not consider it an immediate threat to their jobs.
Rather, they want to learn how to use AI technology effectively to make their work more efficient. While some industries, such as entertainment and journalism, have expressed concern that AI may replace their jobs, many white-collar workers believe that AI can augment their skills and expertise. Overall, sentiments toward AI are mixed among generations, with younger workers expressing more concern and older workers less so.
