Has this happened to you? You’re driving to work. The usual journey. On the highway. You’re listening to the radio and thinking about the day ahead. 30 miles later you suddenly realize you’re at your exit. You haven’t noticed the other exits you passed.

That’s an astonishing number. To be fair, the IMF is careful to point out that they are absolutely not saying 60% of jobs will be replaced by AI. In fact, they divide things down the middle. About 30% of jobs will be impacted in a largely positive way, through increases in productivity and improved skills. While the other 30% of jobs will be impacted in a more negative way, up to and including the loss of those jobs altogether.
