Young workers most worried about AI affecting jobs, Randstad survey shows

Jan 20 (Reuters) – Four in five workers believe artificial intelligence is going to impact their daily tasks at the workplace, with Gen Z among those most concerned as companies increasingly rely on AI chatbots and automation, a survey conducted by Randstad showed on Tuesday.

Job vacancies requiring “AI agent” skills have surged by 1,587%, Randstad said in its yearly “Workmonitor” report, with survey data suggesting that AI and automation are increasingly replacing low-complexity, transactional roles.
