Australian report: Women, grads most at risk from AI job displacement

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

A new report from Jobs and Skills Australia indicates that women and university graduates in Australia are most vulnerable to job displacement by artificial intelligence. Occupations like telemarketing, advertising, and accounting are identified as high-risk due to their routine cognitive tasks being automatable by generative AI. While the report found no evidence of broad labor market upheaval yet, it noted slower employment growth in these exposed roles compared to less exposed manual jobs. The Australian government is preparing updated regulations and support measures to help workers adapt to these changes. AI
