A recent CEO survey by ING reveals that the number of Dutch business leaders anticipating job losses due to artificial intelligence has risen from 6% to 19% within a year. Executives are increasingly worried about the rapid development of AI, fearing that they may fall behind competitors. Companies like Bird and Klarna have already begun replacing staff with AI technologies. Despite these concerns, CEOs remain optimistic about the impact of the upcoming U.S. presidency under Donald Trump, while apprehensions about inflation and potential trade wars persist.
