English Reading Comprehension

Passage: "While artificial intelligence has automated many routine tasks across industries, it has also created entirely new job categories focused on AI oversight, ethics, and system maintenance. Economists remain divided on whether the technology will result in a net loss or net gain of jobs over the next two decades." Question: The main idea of this passage is —

A Artificial intelligence will definitely destroy more jobs than it creates

B AI's overall impact on employment is complex, creating new roles while economists debate its net effect

C AI is only used in routine manufacturing tasks

D All economists agree AI will benefit the job market

Explanation

The passage presents a balanced, uncertain picture — new job categories are emerging, but economists are divided on the net impact, which option B accurately reflects without overstating certainty in either direction.
