## Summary

Labour Minister Jean-Pierre Farandou presented a 12-measure plan, "Impulsion IA 2027", with a budget of €80 million, to support the adoption of AI in the world of work. It focuses on training employees, jobseekers and apprentices, with targeted support for small businesses. The ministry starts from the observation that French companies are lagging behind and that adoption varies between SMEs and large groups. A Coface study cited in the article estimates that one job in six, or 5 million jobs in France, could be automated within three to four years. "Task forces entreprises" are to raise awareness among SMEs, an observatory on the impact of AI will be created, and a tax credit for the depreciation of robots is mentioned. The CGT criticises the absence of new rights for employees.
