Unemployment in the UK has climbed to 5.2% and AI sits at the center of conversations around that.
I recently spoke with @CityAM's @SaskiaLKoopman about how this narrative is taking shape in her recent story.
Every major technology shift begins with compression. Workflows tighten. Hiring slows while companies rethink how work gets done. Markets reprice quickly long before business models fully evolve but then, eventually, reinvention follows and new roles emerge.
We’ve seen this before and there’s no reason to believe AI would follow a different arc of compression followed by reinvention.
The real question is how businesses channel productivity gains into growth, expansion, and new categories of work.
