AI can disrupt both cognitive and skilled jobs, but fear still outweighs facts: CEA Nageswaran

Artificial intelligence could prove more disruptive than earlier technological shifts because it can affect both knowledge-intensive professions and skill-based work, Chief Economic Adviser V Anantha Nageswaran has said.

“AI can be more disruptive because it is coming for both cognitive and skill-based jobs,” Nageswaran told ANI, pointing out that the technology is no longer limited to automating routine factory or clerical work.
