"Across Europe, there are estimates that 61% of jobs will be augmented by generative AI - while up to 7% of jobs will make a long-term transition. Those roles, which will be augmented or transition, are the ones we must focus on, ensuring that AI expands, rather than automates, human potential."
"Broad AI adoption holds the potential to boost the region's GDP by €1.2 trillion. That's an 8% increase over the next decade. We've already seen promising AI stories emerging across the continent. Spanish startup Idoven is using AI to detect heart disease earlier, while Roly's in the UK is reimagining fudge recipes and Maria Teresa Pellegrino has used AI to modernize marketing materials for her family's 100 year old Italian olive oil businesses."
"To enable more Idovens, more Roly's, more Maria's, Europe's public sector, non profits, employers and universities must come together to provide European people and businesses with the AI skills they need."
European work will transform significantly due to AI and emerging technologies, following historical patterns of job market disruption and creation. While research indicates more jobs will be created than lost, preparation for workforce transitions is essential. Generative AI adoption could increase Europe's GDP by €1.2 trillion over the next decade. Approximately 61% of European jobs will be augmented by AI, with 7% undergoing long-term transitions. Successful AI integration requires collaboration among public sector, nonprofits, employers, and universities to provide necessary skills training. European companies already demonstrate AI's potential through healthcare innovations, food industry applications, and business modernization. AI Works for Europe represents a comprehensive commitment to support workforce development and ensure AI expands rather than automates human capabilities.
