AI Calculator Predicts Job Risk from Automation by 2030

The information displayed in the AIM should not be reported as representing the official views of the OECD or of its member countries.

A new AI-powered calculator assesses the risk of job loss due to AI automation by 2030, estimating up to 375 million jobs globally could be affected. Users answer six questions about their roles to receive a percentage indicating their job's vulnerability, highlighting potential future employment risks from AI.[AI generated]

Why's our monitor labelling this an incident or hazard?

The article discusses a tool that evaluates the potential impact of AI on jobs, focusing on the plausible future risk AI poses to employment. There is no indication that any harm has yet occurred, nor that the AI system has malfunctioned or caused direct harm. The event is about a predictive assessment tool and its potential implications, which fits the definition of an AI Hazard, as it plausibly leads to future harm (job displacement or disruption) due to AI's capabilities.[AI generated]

Why's our monitor labelling this an incident or hazard?
The event involves the use of an AI system (the AI calculator) to assess job vulnerability to AI automation. However, it does not describe any actual harm or incident caused by AI, nor does it report any direct or indirect harm resulting from the AI system's use. Instead, it provides a predictive assessment tool about potential future risks. Therefore, it represents a plausible future risk scenario related to AI's impact on jobs but no realized harm or incident. This fits the definition of an AI Hazard, as the AI system's use could plausibly lead to future harm (job displacement) but no harm has yet occurred as described in the article.

Why's our monitor labelling this an incident or hazard?
The event involves an AI system (the AI calculator) used to assess job vulnerability to AI automation. However, the article only discusses potential future impacts (job displacement risk) without any actual harm occurring yet. Therefore, it fits the definition of an AI Hazard, as it plausibly could lead to harm (job loss) in the future but does not describe an incident where harm has already occurred. It is not complementary information because it is not an update or response to a prior incident, nor is it unrelated since it involves an AI system and potential harm.

Why's our monitor labelling this an incident or hazard?
The AI calculator tool is an AI system designed to predict the potential impact of AI on various jobs. While it involves AI use, the article does not describe any realized harm or incident resulting from the AI system's use. Instead, it highlights a plausible future risk of job displacement due to AI automation. Therefore, this event fits the definition of an AI Hazard, as it plausibly could lead to harm (job loss) in the future but no harm has yet occurred or been reported.
