McKinsey Study Projects 11 Million U.S. Workers May Change Jobs by 2035 Due to AI
A McKinsey study projects that by 2035, about 11 million U.S. workers—roughly 7% of the workforce—may need to change jobs due to artificial intelligence-related displacement. This shift could triple the current annual job transition rate of 215,000. The report highlights challenges including substantial retraining and income loss, especially for low-income workers in roles like retail, transportation, and administrative support. Preparing the workforce for this transition is emphasized as a critical task in the coming decade.
