AI IMPACT: MELBOURNE Real Gross Value Added, annual % change
• Melbourne is the fastest-growing capital in the baseline, with growth above 3% supported by the strongest population inflows of any city and a broad industry base spanning professional services, education and advanced manufacturing. • In the displacement case AI-driven output gains from advanced manufacturing hold GVA close to baseline even as employment weakens. • Non-market sectors softens the impact of the displacement scenario on the labour market but does not completely offset the impact.
