Morgan Stanley: Artificial Intelligence Will Alter Job Structure Rather Than Lead to Massive Unemployment

BlockBeats News, February 26th: The latest research report from Morgan Stanley indicated that artificial intelligence will not lead to widespread permanent unemployment, but will instead change the employment structure and create entirely new job positions.

The report referenced the history of technological changes over the past 150 years, suggesting that advancements from electrification to the internet have transformed the labor market without replacing human labor. It is projected that new roles such as Chief AI Officer and AI Governance Expert will emerge in the future, along with hybrid positions across various industries.

However, some economists have warned that unlike in the past, AI's automation of cognitive tasks may devalue human expertise, potentially decoupling corporate profit growth from employment growth. Currently, 30% of AI "adopters" in companies have reported quantifiable financial or productivity gains, showing a significant increase from 16% a year ago.
