7 Artificial Intelligence and Digital Divide Reliance of AI in big data & computer power is more likely to Amplify Existing Inequalities, Increasing Disparities in Access to Technology & Skills. AI haves can Optimize their Operations, Automate Processes & Innovate, while the have-nots are being Left Behind in world s digital evolution. AI Technologies are being Developed & Deployed Faster in the Global North, Enhancing Inequalities among region AI might Exacerbate the Digital Divide in significant ways that would have Geopolitical Implications.
8 Global Aspects of Disruptive Technologies Case of Developing and Developed Economies
9 Developing Countries Estimated that More than Two-thirds of Existing Jobs could be at Risk of Automation Higher Costs of Acquiring Necessary Devices and Services result in a Challenge of Affordability rather than Availability High Internet Penetration, Low Education & High Poverty : Facilitates a Propaganda Manipulated Environment Workers lack the required Technological Skills, resulting in Greater Inequality rather than efficiency

Over 60 million People do not have access to Online Education & Employment Opportunities Despite govt & social service programs, High Costs & Technological Glitches have Stymied Progress.
13 South Korea Successful Government-Driven Industrial Promotion of Technology-intensive Sectors Proactive Steps to support Smooth Transition to Economy Bolstered by New Technologies Cultivation of Professional Human resources in the fastdeveloping fields of industry 4.0 Facilitation of Commercialization of New Inventions & Investment in Developing New Skills
14 Bangladesh Industrial Automation will Shift Manufacturing to Developed Economies closer to Consumers. China s use of new technology & advanced robotics is trapping BD at lower end of supply chain Shifting Major Industrial Tasks to Robots will create Mass Unemployment & Underemployment Possibility of Job Cuts due to Loss of Comparative Advantage & Fall of Foreign Investment
15 Policy Measures Role of Policymakers and Stakeholders
16 Role of Policymakers Establish Policy Dialogues between Governments and Within Countries Facilitate Better Understanding of Industry 4.0 among Affected Parties Invest in Better Data Collection & Management to Establish Sound Long-term Policy Promote Nationwide Training Programs to Facilitate Positive Perception Provide Special Policy Support for Certain Industries. E.g. the RMG Sector in Bangladesh Ensure that Potential Gains are Widely Shared & Brunt of Negative Effects are Minimized
17 Role of Stakeholders Shifting employment landscape has Significant Implications for Industrial Companies, Education Systems, and Governments. Industrial Companies Retrain workforces, revamp organization models & develop strategic approaches to workforce planning. Education Systems Close the Impending Gap in IT skills & Develop broader Business & Social Skill Sets Governments Implement Robust Industrial Internet of Things Policies & Coordinate Initiatives to promote Job Creation
