Study Highlights AI Exposure in Indian Workforce and Potential Economic Impact
A recent study by the Great Lakes Institute of Management reveals that about a quarter of India's workforce is now in AI-exposed occupations, with states like Kerala, Haryana, Maharashtra, and Tamil Nadu leading in AI-complementary jobs. While AI could boost India's GDP growth by 0.4-0.9 percentage points annually, challenges include uneven exposure across states and risks of job displacement in routine roles. Experts emphasize the need for worker retraining and effective AI adoption to maximize benefits and mitigate inequality.
