Commission a review into AI's future skills and employment consequences, including retraining for automation.

Recommendation
The current Government, or its successor, should commission a review into the possible future skills and employment consequences of AI, along the lines of the 2017 Taylor Review of modern working practices which examined the landscape, suggested ideas for debate and has resulted in legislative change. It should also in its response to this Report tell us how it will ensure workers whose jobs are at risk of automation will be able to retrain and acquire the skills necessary to change careers.
