Many people think that soon most jobs will disappear due to the rapid development of technology. More and more researchers study various fields of activity and predict which sectors this type of change will affect most. Despite a large number of discussions, due to frequent changes, this topic requires constant monitoring. Thus, the aim of the study is to assess the impact of robotics and automation, to identify areas in which the greatest number of changes occur, and what is the difference between the introduction of AI between countries. To achieve this goal, two surveys were developed for foreign companies and Russian companies, which made it possible to compare countries with different types of economies. As a result, recommendations were given to companies from different sectors and countries. Keywords: artificial intelligence, robotics, automation, manufactory, human capital, employees, gross domestic product, productivity.
