Bandorên kar û civakî
AI changes which tasks people do, how work is organised, which skills are valued and how information spreads. Effects differ by occupation, country, gender and age, and depend on how firms and governments choose to deploy it. This page sets out how AI affects work and society, how exposure and impacts are measured, and what evidence serves the labour ministries, employers, unions and educators involved.
Labour and social effects on the record.
Labour and social effects: how the risk develops.
Work, education, public trust and inclusion. The dossier below sets out how the risk develops, what is measured, where the data come from, how it is modelled and who decides.
Tasks change before jobs do
AI automates or assists specific tasks within occupations. Jobs are reorganised around remaining tasks before they disappear or new ones form.
Exposure is uneven
Clerical and some professional tasks are highly exposed to generative AI, while manual and interpersonal work is less exposed. Women are over-represented in some highly exposed clerical jobs.
Skills and training lag
Workers need new skills to use AI well, and those displaced need retraining. Training pergalan often respond more slowly than technology adoption.
Information ecosystems shift
Generated content, recommendation systems and synthetic media change how people find and judge information, with effects on trust and public debate.
How labour and social effects is modelled, measured and tested.

Modela pergalê
The couplings between the systems in labour and social effects: signs of influence, a reinforcing and a balancing loop, and cross-links where stress jumps.

Labour studies are designed for the rêzeya Exponential Technology. The ILO’s 2023 working paper estimates exposure, not job loss, and finds clerical work most exposed.
- Firm-level adoption studies.
- Worker surveys on task change.
What is measured, and how well.
Each indicator carries its unit, its cadence, the kind of source behind it and the evidence label a value would carry. No values are shown: a programme supplies them under its own authority.
| Indicator | Unit | Cadence | Source type | Nîşan |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Employment in occupations highly exposed to AI | percent of employment | per assessment | Exposure studies using occupational data | TEXMÎNKIRÎ |
| Firms using AI | percent of firms | annual | Business surveys | REPORTED |
| Workers using AI tools at work | percent of workers | per survey | Labour force and worker surveys | REPORTED |
| AI-related job postings | share of postings | monthly | Online job posting data | ÇAVDÊRÎKIRÎ |
| Participation in AI skills training | percent of workforce | annual | Training surveys | REPORTED |

Where the evidence comes from.
Named public datasets and institutional records, each with its licence class. Sources by agreement are used only under their terms and never republished.
| Çavkanî | What it gives | Licence class |
|---|---|---|
| ILO studies on generative AI exposure of occupations | Occupational exposure estimates by country and gender | Public, ILO terms |
| OECD Employment Outlook and AI in work studies | Evidence on AI adoption and labour effects | Public, OECD terms |
| Eurostat ICT usage in enterprises survey | Share of enterprises using AI | Open, Eurostat reuse policy |

Who decides, and what the evidence serves.
Zîrekiya çêkirî û Pergal prepares evidence. The decisions below are taken by the authorities named, under their own rules, and never by the platform.
| Kî biryarê dide | The question | Evidence this page serves |
|---|---|---|
| Labour ministries | Which workers and sectors need transition support | Exposure analyses; adoption tracking |
| Employers and unions | How to introduce AI at work and share its gains | Adoption and wage evidence |
| Perwerdeyê and training bodies | Which skills to teach and to whom | Skills demand evidence |
Outputs this topic produces
- Occupational exposure analyses by sector, gender and region
- Adoption tracking from business and worker surveys
- Evaluation designs for AI training programmes
- Evidence notes for social dialogue on AI at work
What researchers ask about social effects.
- Which tasks can current AI perform well, and how does that map onto occupations?
- Does AI substitute for workers, complement them or change what their jobs consist of?
- How does AI change learning and assessment in education?
- How do errors, opacity and misuse affect trust, and who is excluded?
Tasks, not jobs.
Jobs are bundles of tasks. AI tends to automate or assist specific tasks, such as drafting, summarising, coding or classifying images, which changes the content of jobs rather than simply removing them. Whether that raises productivity and wages or displaces workers depends on how organisations redesign work and how gains are shared.
In education, AI can personalise support but also undermine assessment and the learning that comes from effort. Trust depends on experience: visible errors, unexplained decisions and synthetic content erode it, while accountable use can build it. People with limited digital access, skills or language support risk exclusion.
Evidence on social effects.
- 01
Task exposure analysis
Mapping AI capabilities onto occupational task data. Exposure is not the same as displacement.
- 02
Field and natural experiments
Studying workplaces and classrooms that adopt AI, using zanista civakî û reftarî. Early studies may not generalise.
- 03
Surveys of trust and use
Measuring how people use and perceive AI. Attitudes change quickly and vary by context.
- 04
Capability evaluation
Linking what pergalan can actually do, from Endezyariya nirxandin û teminata zîrekiya çêkirî, to claims about social effects.
How it is studied, and what the methods cannot say.
