The Impact of AI on Higher-Wage Knowledge Workers and the Global Economy.
TL;DR
McKinsey's analysis shows that generative AI tools like ChatGPT could boost the global economy by $4.4tn and labor productivity growth by up to 0.6% annually through 2040. However, it will cause significant disruption in jobs held by "higher-wage knowledge workers" whose roles were "previously considered to be relatively immune to automation." Workers with a master's degree or doctorate could see 57% of their tasks automated through generative AI, according to McKinsey's findings.
