AI to disrupt City staff more than Brexit, says top lobbyist

AI to disrupt City staff more than Brexit, says top lobbyist

Artificial intelligence will have a "more profound impact" on financial services jobs in the UK than the country's exit from the European Union, the City's top envoy to Brussels has warned.
