A dramatic statement signed by international experts says AI should be prioritised as a significant risk.

BT set out plans to cut 55,000 jobs by 2030, with 10,000 set to be replaced by automation through AI technology.

In March, investment banking giant Goldman Sachs warned that AI poses a threat to around 300 million full-times jobs across the globe, including two-thirds of all jobs in the US and Europe.

That would remove half the developers in the office.
