The figures on this page come from the company's own annual report and from BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster. They are estimates with a stated method. Nothing here says what the company will do: within reach is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings.

What follows from the reading

Share of working time within reach of AI, on the long-run pace at four in five: 36% now, 61% at the end of 2027, 71% at the end of 2028, 73% at the end of 2030. By the patterns, the work is about 73% desk work, 23% people work and 4% body work. These are the site's industry estimates weighted by the shares below: estimates with a stated method and range, not a forecast of what the company will do. By the same patterns, at the end of 2028 about 26% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 63% becomes checking a model's work and 7% could be handed over with lighter checks, from the industries' own figures, not the company's roles.

What the filing says about AI

8 sentences in the filing name AI. The filing names AI eight times, as risks: AI-based financial services reducing demand for products, competition for AI skills, and AI regulation.

• “Our Affiliates may not compare favorably with their competitors in any or all of these categories, and technological developments, including financial applications and services based on generative artificial intelligence, machine-learning algorithms, and large language models ("AI"), may over time reduce the demand for, or clients' willingness to pay for, certain products and services.”
• “The market for highly skilled professionals in the investment management industry is highly competitive, particularly in alternative strategies, and further technological advancements, including with respect to AI, could result in increased demand and competition for individuals with certain specialized skills and technological knowledge.”
• “The use of AI technologies to provide certain business processes, services, and products may also require compliance with additional U.S. and non-U.S. legal or regulatory frameworks which are not fully developed or tested, and which may subject us and our Affiliates to litigation and regulatory actions.”
• “For example, the European Union (the "EU") has enacted the Artificial Intelligence Act, and various other jurisdictions have proposed or finalized laws and regulations that created, or have the potential to create, regulatory risk around the use of AI or could restrict or eliminate our and our Affiliates' ability to use certain AI tools.”
• “These evolving laws and regulations could require changes in our and our Affiliates' implementation of AI technologies, increase compliance costs and the risk of non-compliance, and restrict or impede our respective abilities to develop, adopt, and deploy AI technologies efficiently and effectively.”
