Employment: Artificial Intelligence
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government whether they have any plans to conduct an assessment of the impact of artificial intelligence on the UK workforce, and if so, when.
- Answer
-
We want to ensure that people have access to good, meaningful work. Changes to the labour market are to be expected and we remain mindful of them and their effect on the UK workforce.
The Get Britain Working White Paper sets out how we will address key labour market challenges and spread opportunity in order to fix the foundations of our economy so we can make the most of the opportunities AI presents. This includes launching Skills England to create a shared national plan to boost the nation’s skills, creating more good jobs through our modern Industrial Strategy, and strengthening employment rights through our Plan to Make Work Pay.
We also recognise the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on economic growth, job creation and productivity. We are working across government to understand the challenges and opportunities that AI presents and will continue to monitor this rapidly developing area.
