May 21 (Reuters) - JPMorgan will likely hire more artificial intelligence specialists and fewer traditional bankers, CEO ‌Jamie Dimon told Bloomberg News in an interview published ‌late Wednesday.

Here are some details:

• "There will be all different types of jobs, ​and I think we will be hiring more AI people and fewer bankers in certain categories, and it will make them more productive," Dimon said in a Bloomberg ‌Television interview at ⁠the bank's China Summit in Shanghai.

• "I think it will reduce our jobs down the road," ⁠Dimon added.

• JPMorgan's annual attrition rate of about 10%, or roughly 25,000 to 30,000 employees, gives it room to ​manage these ​changes gradually, Dimon said; ​he added that the ‌bank could retrain staff, redeploy workers or offer early retirement instead of making large layoffs.

• Dimon's comments come as global banks increase investments in AI, reshaping workforces and leading to changes in job roles.

• Standard Chartered on ‌Tuesday said it would eliminate 7,000 ​jobs over the next four ​years as it seeks ​to replace "lower-value human capital" with technology.

• This ‌comes amid a larger trend ​of companies ​cutting jobs as investments shift toward AI.

• Concerns have deepened among investors and economists that artificial intelligence ​will upend established ‌industries, with job losses already emerging in sectors ​most exposed to automation.
