TLDRA Morgan Stanley study reveals that the UK is experiencing a higher rate of job losses due to artificial intelligence compared to other major economies. The research indicates that British businesses are reporting an 8% net job loss due to AI, with a 11.5% increase in productivity. This trend is particularly concerning as more than a quarter of UK workers fear losing their jobs to AI in the next five years, with younger workers expressing the most concern.
