The Bank of England and the World Bank Chief are only two voices, in a growing network, that are concerned by the rise of AI and the loss of jobs. This continuing question is not surprising, according to John Gikopoulos, Global Head for automation and artificial intelligence AI at Infosys Consulting: fear and uncertainty make for good headlines. "The short answer is that no-one can accurately predict what tomorrow's job market will look like, any more than the first observers of Stephenson's Rocket could imagine the huge numbers of people employed by the global, multi-billion dollar railway industry of today," explains Gikopoulos. "We prefer to take our cue from other industrial revolutions to which we've somehow managed to adapt. And the most likely outcome of AI will be a positive shift in the nature of the work we do."
