In short:

The NSW Personal Injury Commission assessed a 34-year-old Aldi and home delivery worker suffered damages of $950,000 after a car crash on his way to work.

Commission member Phillip Carr cited uncertainties including the impact of artificial intelligence on the job market when calculating his future economic loss.

What's next?

The government says it's too soon to draw firm conclusions that AI is causing or will cause future job losses but will keep monitoring the data.
