AI puts one fifth of London jobs at risk - report

A report by the Greater London Authority states that at least a million jobs done by Londoners are highly or significantly exposed to the impact of artificial intelligence (AI). Women, young people, and those in administrative roles are among the most exposed to AI-related job risks.

At least a million jobs done by Londoners are highly or significantly exposed to AI, according to a report by the Greater London Authority. Over 300,000 administrative roles face the highest risk of automation due to their clerical tasks aligning with GenAI capabilities. A further 748,000 roles in IT, data analysis, and secretarial work are also at risk. London's mayor, Sir Sadiq Khan, will warn that a hands-off approach to AI could harm London's labor market. Jobs least at risk include architects, barbers, and chefs. The report states that 46% of London's workers are in roles where GenAI could automate some tasks, compared to a UK average of 38%.
