🏦 Barclays will cut about 5,000 jobs, around 5% of its global workforce, in an AI-linked efficiency push. Roughly 60% of the cuts fall in support functions, including developers, and a significant share is expected in back-office teams in India.
📉 Goldman Sachs economist Joseph Briggs estimates up to 9% of workers (about 1 in 11) could be displaced during the AI transition. History suggests these layoffs speed up in a recession.
🧠 Bill Gates told The Verge's Decoder podcast to expect about 20 years of AI disruption with "winners and losers". He says it could be one of the most turbulent periods in human history, and suggests some work, like childcare, food preparation, art and sports, could be kept for humans.
🇮🇳 Speaking in Berlin, Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal said his ministry is identifying AI-proof professions. He named handicrafts, handlooms, culinary arts and tourism.
🚀 The good news: an Embark report says India's Global Capability Centres could add 1–1.4 million jobs by 2031 (from about 2.3M to 3.3–3.7M employees), with demand for AI, data and cybersecurity talent.
