AI and jobs in Africa: opportunity or disruption?
Artificial intelligence (AI) is already reshaping how work is organised, how firms grow, and how economies compete. For Africa, a continent with the youngest population in the world and a labour force expected to grow by over 450 million people by 2035 (The Africa Competitiveness Report, 2017), the stakes could not be higher.
