Are AI and automation going to lead to mass unemployment? 

We spoke to King’s Riccardo Zacconi about his ‘crazy’ prediction for the future, and he said that we are going to have the opposite problem. 

He believes that big problem in the near future is that, with an ageing population, we are not going to have enough workers.

He believes unemployment rates will effectively be at zero for many areas as demographic make it hard to find enough young people to do certain jobs. 

Do you agree?

Riccardo co-founded King in March 2003 and was its CEO from the start, overseeing the company's rapid growth in the global mobile gaming sector to over 500 million monthly players, the company's IPO on NYSE and its $6bn sale to Activision Blizzard in 2016.
