Key findings

40 per cent of UK jobs could see some impact from Generative AI with 2.5 per cent of all tasks affected.
Around half of the displacement will be offset by the creation of new tasks linked to managing the new technology within the affected jobs.
This could add £31 billion of GDP to the UK economy in the next decade.
