A recent Reuters/Ipsos poll of 4,446 American adults found that 71% of respondents are concerned that artificial intelligence (AI) will cause permanent job losses in the United States. This concern is echoed internationally; a survey in Germany revealed that one in three workers fear losing their jobs to AI, with more than a quarter of German companies anticipating job reductions due to AI within the next five years. Additionally, 77% of Americans worry about potential political instability linked to AI, and 48% oppose the use of AI for strike targeting. A Stanford University study further highlights the impact of AI on entry-level employment, particularly in sectors such as software development and customer service, indicating that AI is already affecting job availability in these fields.
