AI Will Send 1 in 4 Workers to a New Job, Salesforce Predicts

One in four people will be pushed to a different job as artificial intelligence gets more widely adapted in the workplace, according to a company that’s aggressively trying to accelerate this profound change. Sales software giant Salesforce is making this bold prediction based on the idea that agent AI tools will take over enough job functions now done by humans, and has carried out a study of HR workers that supports this idea. As AI agents are adopted, Salesforce notes, companies will see efficiency boosts, and it pins this boost as an average productivity gain and drop in labor costs equivalent to saving over $11,000 per worker.
