AI Threatens 40-50% of India's White-Collar Jobs, Warns Atomberg Founder

Arindam Paul, co-founder of Atomberg, cautions that advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) could eliminate 40-50% of white-collar jobs in India's IT and BPO sectors. He emphasizes that the manufacturing sector's sluggish growth is insufficient to compensate for these potential job losses, posing a risk to the middle class and the nation's economic stability. Paul advocates for proactive measures, including workforce reskilling and balanced AI regulation, to mitigate these challenges.
