The analysis
- Being exposed does not mean disappearing: some of the exposed jobs may gain in productivity.
- The richer a country, the more exposed its jobs: these are mostly office jobs.
- The ILO finds women 2 times more numerous than men in the most exposed category.
The figures
- IMF, advanced economies (AI in general, 2024): 60 %.
- IMF, world (AI in general, 2024): 40 %.
- IMF, low-income countries (AI in general, 2024): 26 %.
- ILO, high-income countries (generative AI, 2025): 34 %.
- ILO, world (generative AI, 2025): 24 %.
- ILO, low-income countries (generative AI, 2025): 11 %.
Assumptions
- Jobs of which some tasks can be done or assisted by AI.
- These are estimates of exposure, not measurements of jobs lost or created.
- The 2 institutions do not define exposure in the same way: the IMF counts all AI, the ILO generative AI.
