According to a Brookings Institution report, generative AI poses a greater risk to highly skilled tech workers in industries concentrated in high-tech areas like Silicon Valley and Seattle. Unlike past automation technologies that primarily affected low-skilled laborers, genAI is expected to stimulate changes in cognitive tasks among white-collar professionals, including software developers and legal analysts. While genAI will not entirely replace jobs, workers will increasingly need to collaborate with AI as it serves as an augmentation tool, creating a changing landscape for skilled employment.
A new Brookings Institution report asserts that generative AI will impact high-skilled tech jobs more than previous automation waves, challenging earlier predictions about job automation.
Generative AI will disrupt cognitive tasks in high-tech regions more than it affects workers in less concentrated locations, highlighting risks for white-collar workers.
