Will you as an economist be replaced by AI?

The reason you rank so high is that much of what you do every day,analysing data, writing reports, and building models,is exactly what AI excels at right now. But that doesn’t mean you’ll become redundant; on the contrary, you’ll have more time for what requires your expertise, like interpreting results and talking to decision-makers. In EuroWork, for example, you can input a stack of statistics from Statistics Sweden and ask for a summary of the key trends, so you don’t have to spend the whole afternoon piecing together tables. Or you can let AI draft an initial policy analysis, which you then refine with your own insights.
