I argue that while automation and AI have the potential to enhance productivity and economic growth, they simultaneously exacerbate income disparities by disproportionately benefiting high-skilled workers while displacing low-skilled jobs. The study is structured into three main findings: the historical context and technological advancements of automation and AI; the economic and social perspectives that analyze their impact on employment patterns and wage distribution; and global case studies that provide real-world examples of these technologies' implications on income inequality. Ultimately, I conclude that proactive policy interventions are essential to address the widening income gap and advocate for equitable technological integration to foster economic equityenAutomationArtificial IntelligenceIncome InequalityEconomic DisparitiesLabor MarketsArticle
