Business and Trade Committee: Artificial Intelligence, business and the future of the workforce
Committee hears from witnesses
The Business and Trade Committee is holding an oral evidence session to examine how artificial intelligence is affecting UK businesses and the future of the workforce. The inquiry will explore the opportunities and challenges AI presents for employment, skills, and economic competitiveness.
This is nationally significant because AI is rapidly transforming how businesses operate and the types of jobs available. Understanding these changes is critical for informing government policy on worker protections, skills training, and maintaining the UK's competitive edge in the global AI economy.
