Abstract

Automation and artificial intelligence continue to disrupt the workforce economy, transforming industries and institutions, as well as traditional employment models. Although automation promises to improve productivity and efficiency, it poses its own problems in job displacement and skill gaps like imposter syndrome and identity crises as the replacement of human workforce to AI and rebotics. In order to cope with this transition, companies, government bodies and educational institutions need to take initiative, in the form of retraining initiatives, AI-human collaboration, labour policies etc. This discussion must also include ethical considerations, regulatory frameworks, and equitable opportunities for employment as AI continues to develop. As automation progresses the societies should shape it by augmentation of human potential instead of replacement, which could help facilitate sustainable economic growth and resilient labour workforce.
