A PwC report highlights that sectors utilizing artificial intelligence (AI)—such as professional and financial services, and information technology—are experiencing nearly five times faster productivity growth than other sectors. Between 2018 and 2022, productivity in these AI-driven sectors grew by 4.3%, compared to just 0.9% in construction, manufacturing, retail, food, and transport. PwC suggests AI could help overcome stagnant productivity, boosting economic growth, wages, and living standards. Job ads in highly productive sectors increasingly demand AI skills, indicating AI’s significant role in productivity.
