Commission member Philip Carr wrote that Mr Duong had 33 years of working life ahead of him that would be affected by his loss of capacity. 

Mr Carr determined that Mr Duong should receive a "significant buffer" for the uncertainty around future loss of earnings, which included the impact of AI.  

The tribunal did not find that AI had cost Mr Duong work, or predict that it would, only that AI may create more job market uncertainty that could disproportionately affect an injured worker with need for greater accommodations.
