Goldman: GenAI Could Lift India’s Productivity as It Reshapes—not Replaces—Jobs

🇮🇳 🧠 Goldman Sachs sees generative AI as a medium-term growth positive for India, mainly reshaping work rather than eliminating it. It estimates AI could handle up to 20% of non-agricultural tasks, putting 8–12% of jobs at substitution risk while complementing 42–48%. Healthcare, education, and media should see more augmentation, while postal services, telecoms, and parts of financial services face higher displacement risk. GenAI could also add about 0.4 percentage points to annual labor-productivity growth over the next decade.
