An International Bar Association ( ) Global Employment Institute (GEI) report states there is an urgent need for policymakers to establish a comprehensive, adaptable legal framework to manage the integration of artificial intelligence ( ).

Titled: ‘Digitalisation (Artificial Intelligence and Robotics) and its Impact on the World of Work – Part II’ is focused on the impact of AI and on jobs (including working conditions and social aspects). A range of sectors, and countries are covered, highlighting the challenges faced by the workforce and labour markets, as well as the opportunities. The Report is a free resource from the IBA – the global voice of the legal profession.

The research demonstrates laws are lagging business reality.

Some key findings from the report:
• digitalisation affects the white-collar sector more than the blue collar sector;
• generative AI is predicted to have a significant economic impact, as it has the potential to increase worker productivity by as much as 40 per cent, but there is also the risk of exacerbating wage inequalities;
• highly exposed professions, such as those in legal and medical roles, may benefit from AI’s complementarity; and
• AI adoption is likely to exacerbate economic disparities between low-income and advanced economies that are better poised to benefit.
