Last year, we showed that currently demonstrated technologies could automate 45 percent of the activities people are paid to perform and that about 60 percent of all occupations could see 30 percent or more of their constituent activities automated, again with technologies available today. but we released some initial findings late last year and are following up now with additional interim results. For interim insights on our core findings, see Michael Chui, James Manyika, and Mehdi Miremadi, “ Four fundamentals of workplace automation,” McKinsey Quarterly, November 2015. The full results, forthcoming in early 2017, will include several other countries, 1 1. Using data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics and O*Net, we’ve quantified both the amount of time spent on these activities across the economy of the United States and the technical feasibility of automating each of them. These conclusions rest on our detailed analysis of 2,000-plus work activities for more than 800 occupations. McKinsey’s Michael Chui explains how automation is transforming work.
