The emergence of advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly generative AI, has sparked a "great divide" in the global labor market. This divide is characterized by two opposing narratives: the "doomsayer" perspective, which foresees widespread job displacement, and the "optimist" view, which predicts human-AI augmentation, productivity booms, and net job creation.
