Executives warning of the potential impact of artificial intelligence on white-collar jobs is becoming an increasingly familiar tale.
The latest is Allison Kirkby, the CEO of British telecommunications giant BT.
In an interview with the Financial Times published Sunday, Kirkby said that advancements in AI technology could lead to further cuts at the firm.
BT has turned to AI in recent years to reinvent processes in areas like customer service.
