ABSTRACT
businesses and the issues it may cause regarding job loss. It is a secondary descriptive research
study that explores the subject by using previously published materials. The report evaluated the
perspectives of numerous experts, authors, and researchers who have contributed substantial
information and advancements in AI-related technologies over the previous few decades through
a thorough literature analysis. The study looked into the strategies used by various economic
sectors to identify and mitigate the potential impact of AI on their business practices and
workforce. Because it depended on quantifiable and measurable data gathered in the past through
accomplish this. Due to its desktop research design, the report did not use qualitative data
collection techniques like interviews, questionnaires, focus groups, etc. Instead, its quantitative
components involved gathering information and examining pertinent economic models from
prior research. As a result, certain findings have industry issues with the application of AI, such
as ethical questions and job displacement, which are given intentional thought. The inquiry also
looked at the methods various industries use to gain from AI while limiting potential drawbacks.
The findings showed how companies have adopted AI technology to increase productivity,
customer interactions, and efficiency, leading to job transformation rather than outright job
replacement. The dissertation looked at how consumer attitudes and expectations affected the
adoption and implementation of AI across several businesses. According to the report, consumer
expectations for tailored experiences, simplicity, and efficiency have pushed them to accept and
rely more on AI-powered products and services. However, consumer attitudes and expectations
have also been influenced by worries about privacy, data security, and the ethical application of

INTRODUCTION
Background Information
Artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly impacted many industries, particularly labor-
intensive firms, because of its rapid growth. Robotics, automation, and other AI-based
unclear whether this technological revolution threatens the jobs held by workers in labor-
industries that heavily rely on human labor (Kim et al., 2022). These industries usually demand
laborious, physically demanding, repetitive, and human error-prone jobs. Because of AI,
businesses are using more tools that can automate some tasks and do away with the need for
human labor. Analysis of the skill-biased technological transition theory and its impacts on
employment polarization heavily relies on the labor market dynamics. The socioeconomic effects
of AI on labor-intensive businesses are the main topic of this research, which focuses on its
financial outcomes. The huge job displacement caused by AI in the past has necessitated
Manufacturing is a good illustration of how robotics is overcoming obstacles with the aid of AI.
Complex operations that previously required only human expertise are now efficiently carried
out by robots coupled with AI systems. These highly developed robots assemble goods,
guarantee product quality, and simplify logistics, lowering costs and increasing organizational
productivity. However, the potential displacement of many workers due to job automation is also

them solve problems (Singh et al., 2022). Although this automation streamlines customer
assistance procedures, it also increases the likelihood that human customer service professionals
On the one hand, automation and robotics have started replacing jobs traditionally filled by
people, which is cause for alarm. This causes people to worry about the welfare of employees
who might find themselves suddenly without a job or facing a bleak future in their fields of
work. On the other hand, new employment possibilities related to the development, upkeep, and
oversight of artificial intelligence (AI) may result from the advancement of AI technology.
However, these complex tasks frequently call for high-tech skills that may be outside the scope
Together, AI advancements pose a double-edged sword with enormous risks and possible
benefits for people in labor-intensive industries. Therefore, it is crucial to comprehend the full
scale of the situation and consider potential ways for reducing the negative effects of AI and
laying the groundwork for a smooth transition for impacted workers. By examining the

LITERATURE REVIEW
This literature review tries to summarize and discuss the numerous perspectives that experts,
commentators, and academics have taken on the subject of AI and its impact on employment. It
uses a multidimensional theoretical framework to examine how artificial intelligence (AI) will
affect many businesses, particularly those that depend heavily on labor. The framework takes
into account the dynamics of the labor market, technological determinism, and socioeconomic
effects. This review strives to fully comprehend the complicated relationship between AI-driven
different views.

technologies and how they will affect labor-intensive industries. One study by Kaul, Enslin, and
Gross (2020) examined the possibility of task and job automation, which shed light on the
possible disruption that AI may bring. Frey and Osborne (2017) researched to identify which
professions were vulnerable to automation and how many jobs would be lost to comprehend the
implications of automation. They evaluated the degree of automation that may be achieved with
current technology by analyzing the work composition of various occupations using a machine
learning approach.
Based on the likelihood that they will be automated, Frey and Osborne (2017) divided
employment into low-risk, medium, and high-risk categories. Based on their research, 47% of
American employees were highly vulnerable to automation. This emphasizes how large job
transfers across industries and sectors are possible. Further highlighting the susceptibility of

artificial intelligence automation can cause. Frey and Osborne (2017) recognized many
the revolutionary potential of AI technology and how it will affect labor-intensive industries. To
gain insight into the disruptive aspect of AI, Kaul, Enslin, and Gross (2020) undertook a study
that analyzed the possibility of automation of employment and tasks. They expanded on Frey and
Osborne's (2017) analysis of the degree of job losses and the susceptibility of certain professions
to automation. Frey and Osborne classified employment into low-, medium, and high-risk
These studies' findings indicate that a sizeable fraction of American occupations face a high risk
of automation, pointing to potential changes in the labor market across industries and sectors
(Kaul et al., 2020). This idea is further supported by the study of Lakshmi and Corbett (2020),
which emphasizes how routine physical tasks are particularly susceptible to AI-driven
Frey and Osborne's classification of high-risk professions includes many jobs involving routine
duties, repeated motions, and predictable physical work. As a result, as AI technology develops,
people in labor-intensive industries may face substantial hurdles in the future (Kaul et al., 2020).
Discussions and debates on the future of work, job displacement, and the requirement for
retraining and upskilling in response to AI automation were spurred by Kulkov's study (2021).

industries was done in 2016 by Arntz, Gregory, and Zierahn. Researchers examined data from
various nations and industries to determine the industries and sectors most likely to experience
significant change due to AI automation. Their study showed that sectors with a firm reliance on
routine and repetitive tasks, like manufacturing and agriculture, are more likely to be automated.
Kulkov (2021) expanded on this research by creating a cutting-edge method for determining the
likelihood of job automation. Kulkov widened the investigation to cover 21 more OECD nations
by considering the technical requirements for each job and assessing their susceptibility to
thanks to this global perspective. This research results are consistent with technological
determinism, which postulates that technological changes influence social and economic
developments. The research implies that employment requiring manual labor, repetitive data
processing, and predictable physical tasks are more vulnerable to automation in labor-intensive
Legislators, business owners, and employees must understand how different industries are
susceptible to the job disruption AI technology brings. Kim et al. (2022) stressed the significance
of this knowledge to foresee probable outcomes and create strategies to manage the advantages
and challenges AI technology brings. Insights from their study, primarily focused on labor-
intensive industries, can help influence legislation and encourage the adoption of preventative
Collectively, these studies offer empirical proof in favor of technological determinism in the
context of labor-intensive industries and AI. They underline the dangers of massive job
displacement by AI technologies' automation of routine manual tasks. These results underline the
necessity of aggressive policies and actions to curb AI's detrimental effects on employment and
determinism, routine and repetitive tasks in specific industries are more likely to be automated.
Studies have offered empirical support for this idea and emphasize the necessity for preventative
actions to lessen the negative effects of AI on jobs and help affected workers transition smoothly.
The potential for AI automation to disproportionately hurt low-skilled workers is one recurring
worry raised in the literature about the dynamics of the labor market. The skill-biased

from this. The authors emphasize the necessity for laws and procedures to address any disparities
Brynjolfsson and McAfee (2014) and Acemoglu and Restrepo (2020) provide an alternative
viewpoint on these worries. They contend that although automation brought on by AI may
displace mundane, middle-skill occupations, it also opens up new career prospects that demand
higher skill levels. The term "job polarization" was first used by Brynjolfsson and McAfee
(2014) to describe how demand for high- and low-skilled workers rises while it falls for ordinary,
middle-skilled employment. They contend that artificial intelligence (AI) technologies can

the labor market in favor of positions requiring innovation, problem-solving, and social
Acemoglu and Restrepo (2020), who claim that automation would eliminate middle-skilled jobs
The research shows that AI innovation can also establish new firms and employment categories
despite concerns about potential job displacements. According to Acemoglu and Restrepo
(2020), AI automation may negatively influence employment and boost productivity. This
suggests that there may be both job replacements and new employment prospects in fields that
The research points to a complex connection between artificial intelligence innovation and labor-
intensive industries. While there are worries that low-skilled people may be replaced, automation
brought on by AI may also open up opportunities for higher-level positions. The idea of "job
polarization" emphasizes how crucial it is to promote skill development and ensure that
employees are equipped to adjust to the shifting needs of the labor market. More studies and
policy talks are required to address the possible injustices and disruptions by AI-driven
Numerous studies have been conducted on the socioeconomic effects of AI advancement and
how it will affect industries that depend on labor. An examination of the potential financial
effects of AI and associated difficulties was done by Liang et al. in 2021. To ensure that workers
can successfully interact with AI systems and profit from developing technology, they
underlined the necessity for workforce adaptation and retraining. Similarly, Chui, Manyika, and
Miremadi (2016) extensively studied the economic implications of AI adoption and highlighted
15
The possible socioeconomic inequality that could develop as a result of job displacement brought
on by automation brought on by AI is one of the issues identified by Frey and Osborne (2019).
They contend that even if AI technologies have the potential to increase productivity and
efficiency, income inequality could get worse if the benefits are not distributed fairly. In 2020,
Lakshmi and Corbett emphasized the importance of addressing these disparities to ensure that
everyone may benefit from AI technologies. They suggest implementing policies and practices to
support displaced employees, encourage inclusive growth, and invest in education and training
programs to provide individuals with the skills they need to compete in a changing labor market.
The significance of proactive governmental steps to reduce the possible adverse effects of AI
automation, such as income inequality and employment polarization, is also emphasized by Frey
and Osborne (2019). Governments and stakeholders are encouraged to work together to develop
policies that support entrepreneurship, inclusive growth, and worker access to the resources they
need and support systems. A proactive approach is also recommended by Chui, Manyika, and
equitable growth. Their research strongly emphasizes considering potential obstacles and
Bessen (2019) looks at historical data from many industries and concludes that implementing AI
technologies can significantly impact productivity. However, he also draws attention to the
possibility of employment polarization, which can exacerbate income disparity by decreasing the
number of middle-skilled jobs and raising the demand for low- and high-skilled workers. By
offering a cross-country analysis, Arntz, Gregory, and Zierahn (2017) expand our understanding
16
of the socioeconomic implications of AI. According to their research, automation may cause
income distribution to alter and job displacement across a range of sectors and nations, including
by Ahmed, Jeon, and Piccialli (2022). While there is potential for increased productivity and
economic progress, job migration also carries the risk of social inequality. Their findings

income inequality, and ease workforce adaptation and retraining to utilize AI technologies'
advantages efficiently.

Search Strategy:
A thorough search was done using various academic research sources, including IEEE Xplore,
ACM Digital Library, Google Scholar, and Scopus, to find pertinent and complete data. Industry
studies and publications were also included to compile a more comprehensive perspective. The
The search was conducted in two stages: the first stage attempted to determine the current status
of AI innovation and its impact on labor-intensive industries, while the second stage sought to
investigate the potential difficulties and opportunities for employees and employers in these
areas. The following requirements had to be met by the sources that were chosen for inclusion:
(1) they had to be available online or through the university library; (2) they had to be peer-
reviewed or credible; (3) they had to be related to the study question and aims.
Many results from the initial search were obtained and filtered by title and abstract to remove
redundant or irrelevant sources. The remaining sources were further evaluated for quality and
applicability for the study by full-text reading. The final sample included 45 materials, including
three books, ten industry reports, and 32 journal articles. The sources were divided into four
major themes: (1) the innovation of AI and its drivers; (2) the acceptance and proliferation of AI
in labor-intensive industries; (3) the influence of AI on the supply, demand, and quality of labor;
and (4) the implications of AI for skill development, education, and policy.
Thematic analysis was used to identify, code, and understand the main patterns and concepts
included in the data taken from the sources. The study's theoretical framework, research
question, and objectives served as the basis for the analysis. The conclusions were combined and
backed with pertinent data from the sources in a narrative format. Along with discussing the
19
implications for subsequent research and practice, the data and analysis limitations were also
covered.
For inclusion, studies and writings from credible sources published in English between 2010 and
2021 were considered. Only studies, conference papers, reports, and professional comments
addressing how AI advancement affects labor-intensive industries and jobs were included.
were excluded.
The inclusion criteria ensured the evidence base was appropriate and high-quality for the
research topic. The study examined the impact of AI innovation on labor-intensive industries and
professions such as manufacturing, agriculture, retail, hospitality, and the healthcare industry.
These industries are characterized by high amounts of human labor input, low levels of
automation, and low salaries. The disruptive repercussions of AI innovation, such as job
displacement, skill mismatch, income disparity, and societal discontent, may affect them more
readily.
The exclusion criteria were created to prevent confounding variables and extraneous data from
tainting the research. Finance, education, entertainment, or ethics are examples of non-labor-
intensive industries or unrelated aspects of AI innovation that were not intended to be included in
the research topic. These industries are distinguished by high degrees of automation, low levels
of human labor input, and high salaries. As a result, they may be less impacted by the disruptive
The period from 2010 to 2021 was chosen to include the most current innovations in AI and
trends and their effects on labor-intensive industries and occupations. Deep learning, cloud
computing, big data, and breakthroughs in natural language processing propelled a new wave of
AI innovation that started in 2010. The data gathering time for this research study concluded in
2021. The goal of the literature review was to give a thorough and current summary of what is
Due to the desk-based research approach used in this study, no particular sample or sampling
technique was applied. Instead, a thorough assessment of the current literature, research
publications, industry reports, and expert comments were evaluated to get insight into the
subject. The literature review aimed to identify and summarize the essential ideas, theories, and
frameworks pertinent to the case and the most significant gaps and difficulties in the body of
current information. Both academic and non-academic sources were included in the literature

progress will radically alter the labor market and industry as various businesses use AI.
The paper sheds light on concerns regarding the application of AI in certain industries. The loss
of one's job is a significant problem. Concerns have been raised across several industries over AI
and automation's impact on their workforce. AI systems may become outdated as they improve
at certain occupations and tasks. The changing environment gives rise to concerns regarding the
loss of jobs and the necessity of retraining and upgrading workers' skills. Various industries
share concerns regarding data privacy and security. (McGuinness et al., 2021) Artificial
intelligence systems require vast amounts of data to learn and make choices. When collecting,
keeping, and exploiting sensitive data, industries exercise caution to protect consumers' privacy
and maintain confidentiality. To address these problems, robust data governance systems and
The moral implications of using AI have recently come under scrutiny. Various businesses have

components of the industry. AI systems built on deep learning and neural networks can make
murky and complex decisions. (Ahmed et al., 2022) Businesses are creating tools to analyze and
interpret the outputs of artificial intelligence to explain and justify the behaviors of AI. Concerns
have been raised in the business world about the ethical application of AI in essential sectors.
35
The ethical repercussions of AI in diagnosis, treatment, and overall patient care need to be
investigated. Industries continue to rely on human oversight and participation due to the dangers
In general, the data indicate that businesses have legitimate worries regarding the use of AI. The
loss of jobs, breaches of data security and privacy, algorithmic prejudice, lack of openness, and
irresponsible usage of AI are all sources of concern. The business world knows that worker
prudent AI implementation in important areas may all contribute to overcoming these challenges.
Businesses can make artificial intelligence technology more ethical and inclusive, expanding its

The study's findings underline how crucial consumer attitudes and expectations are in
determining how and where AI is adopted and used across sectors. Customers have shown a
rising acceptance of and reliance on products and services that use artificial intelligence. This
acceptance can be attributed to various factors, including AI's advantages, which are viewed as
specific, useful, and effective. The demand for personalized experiences significantly influences
consumer acceptability. AI technology can evaluate large volumes of data to create customized
effectiveness and ease of personalized experiences (Chandra et al., 2022). Industries have been
Another significant factor that affects customer sentiments toward AI is convenience. Voice
assistants and other AI-powered devices make customer tasks and processes easier by providing
slick and intuitive interactions. Through voice-activated commands and intelligent home
automation, artificial intelligence (AI) enables users to optimize their daily routines while saving
time and effort. As a result, consumers are grateful for and acclimated to the convenience that AI
In addition to the favorable attitudes toward AI, consumer concerns have profoundly affected
expectations. Concerning AI, consumers have serious privacy and data security concerns.
Because AI depends on data gathering and processing, consumers are concerned about protecting
their personal information and how it is used. Industries must create robust data protection
methods, ensure open data usage, and offer transparent privacy rules to alleviate client concerns.
38
The ethical concerns surrounding the use of AI have also influenced consumer views and
expectations. The increased reliance on AI technologies has consumers worried about potential
biases, discrimination, and ethical issues that may arise. Businesses must employ AI ethically
and sensibly while respecting equity, transparency, and accountability. Industries must
The study's findings suggest that consumer attitudes and expectations are essential for adopting
and applying AI across industries. Customers have become more accepting of and dependent on
goods and services powered by AI as they expect tailored experiences and simplicity. Concerns
about privacy, data security, and the ethical application of AI have impacted consumer attitudes.
Industries must respond to these consumer expectations by addressing problems through ethical
data practices, moral AI deployment, and open communication to build customer trust and
confidence in AI technology.
