Merryn Somerset Webb speaks with Daniel Susskind, senior research associate at the Institute for Ethics in AI at the University of Oxford and a member of the UK government’s expert panel on AI and the future of work.

As those routes begin to look increasingly uncertain, how should young people prepare for the world of work that awaits them?
