Netherlands to slash state jobs as part of AI-related savings
荷蘭表示將削減 25,000 個政府職位，作為 AI 相關節省措施的一部分，規模超過荷蘭公務員總數的 15%。這項削減亦伴隨政府即將公佈的 AI 部署計劃。
The Netherlands said it would cut 25,000 government jobs as part of AI-related savings, among the more aggressive moves yet set out by states seeking to adapt to the technology. The cuts, which represent more than 15% of the overall Dutch civil service workforce, come alongside soon-to-be announced plans for deploying AI within the government.
The Netherlands is far from alone in trying to incorporate AI to drive public-service efficiency: New Zealand is mulling a similar proportional reduction in official jobs, using an “aggressive/targeted approach to AI,” a top civil servant said last month. Others are even more ambitious: The UAE is pushing to become the world’s first “AI-native” government in order to maximize productivity from its tiny population.
