"While the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on knowledge workers has dominated the recent narrative, transformative technologies will have a much broader global impact.
The World Economic Forum's Jobs of Tomorrow: Technology and the Future of the World's Largest Workforces explores how AI, robotics, energy and network technologies are reshaping seven major job families that together employ 80% of the world's workers: agriculture, manufacturing, construction, retail and wholesale trade, transport and logistics, business and management, and healthcare. The white paper highlights both the opportunities for productivity and inclusion and the risks of disruption, emphasizing that the outcomes depend on how economies, industries and policy-makers enable technological adoption and workforce readiness.

It concludes with a call for coordinated action among employers, governments and technology developers to ensure these advances lead to higher-quality, more inclusive employment – and a future of work that benefits both people and productivity."
