## Reading

In a Verasight survey conducted January 18-24, 2024, half of U.S. adults (50%) expect finance and technology workers to be the biggest economic winners from new workplace technology, ahead of any other group offered.

Roughly four-in-ten point instead to young workers (41%), to education, health care and government workers (40%), or to manufacturing, construction and transportation workers (39%); fewer name managers (28%) or older workers (17%). About one-in-seven (14%) say no workers will benefit economically from the change.
