07 - How AI Automation Will Transform the UK Workforce

AI Vantage Point Podcast

In this week’s episode of AI Vantage Point, we’re diving into a topic that’s on everyone’s mind: job automation and how AI is reshaping the future of work in the UK. Recent research from the UK Government reveals that around 7% of current UK jobs could face a high risk of automation within the next five years—a figure projected to rise to 18% in 10 years and nearly 30% in two decades. These numbers raise important questions about the future of the workforce, and what steps businesses and individuals should take to prepare.

I’ll break down what these statistics mean for employers, employees, and the broader economy. This isn’t just about adapting to change—it’s an opportunity for businesses to innovate and future-proof their operations. We’ll also look at concerns around AI reliance, with recent data from Forbes Advisor showing that 59% of Brits worry about AI, and 42% fear losing essential human skills like creativity and problem-solving. I’ll share actionable insights to help you stay proactive and empowered in this evolving landscape.
