Blue-Collar Jobs Poised for Growth as AI Transforms White-Collar Work

Blue-collar jobs like construction and manufacturing are poised for strong growth as older workers retire and demand rises in healthcare, green energy, and high-tech production.

Wages and economic security have improved more for working class jobs than white-collar roles as the labor market tightened post-pandemic.

Hands-on jobs requiring dexterity and human interaction are safer from automation and AI than routine office jobs over the next decade.

AI is more likely to augment blue-collar jobs through tools like sensors and drones rather than replace workers.

The economic winners of the AI revolution may be nurses, plumbers, and other working class roles keeping society running as white-collar jobs decline.
