The report further says 40 percent of workers will need to polish their skills due to the implementation of AI.

Artificial intelligence (AI) won’t replace employees anytime soon. But people who use AI will replace people who don’t, said tech giant IBM in its report, which talks about the implications of AI in businesses.

Companies are rapidly introducing AI into their workings to free up their employees’ time so they can focus on issues that require their personalized attention. The thing about AI is that it will do exactly what you train it to do. So, the hyperboles around the latest technology snatching away people’s jobs and taking over humanity can calm down.

For 80 years, researchers at Harvard have followed participants into old age, collecting data on their physical and mental health, jobs, relationships, etc.

The robot’s memory is so large that it can memorise all Jeppesen navigation charts, a task that is impossible for human pilots.

Both artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics have made significant strides in recent years, meaning most human jobs could soon be overtaken by technology — on the ground and even in the skies above us.

A team of engineers and researchers from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology (KAIST) is currently developing a humanoid robot that can fly aircraft without needing to modify the cockpit.

Artificial intelligence has been blamed for thousands of layoffs — but a lucky few who are trained in the red-hot technology could find lucrative jobs paying as much as $900,000 a year. Streaming service Netflix touts an opening for a machine-learning platform product manager on its website that pays anywhere from $300,000 to $900,000 per year, including base salary and bonus.

The role requires tech junkies to “define the strategic vision for MLP [Machine Learning Platform]” and measure its success. Candidates can report to an office in Los Gatos, Calif., or work remotely in the West Coast timezone.

Summary.

What will artificial intelligence do to industries and jobs? For a preview, look to the finance industry which has been incorporating data and algorithms for a long time, and which is always a canary in the coal mine for new technology. The experience of finance suggests that AI will transform some industries (sometimes very quickly) and that it will especially benefit larger players. But it may not leave the overall system better off.

The emergence of ChatGPT in the public eye has brought new life to the field of artificial intelligence (AI). As AI technology enters all industries, it becomes a part of our work and lives, ushering in a new industrial revolution. While jobs will be lost, new opportunities will be created for those who work with AI.

Traditional industries, such as energy and manufacturing, are even more anxious about the AI-oriented future than those in the IT sector. They want to know how they can use AI technologies to reduce costs and increase efficiency in their industries.

Automation is many things, but apparently, it is not gender-neutral.

We could soon see AI-powered robots taking over several jobs in Canadian grocery stores. Richard Southern with how a labour strike in one part of the country could have nationwide implications.

As part of our AItopia series exploring how AI will impact architecture and design, Dezeen examines whether the technology will end up taking architects’ jobs.

In 2019, New York-based designer Sebastian Errazuriz caused a stir with his claim that 90 per cent of architects could lose their jobs to machines.

Four years on, following the emergence of several generative-AI models such as Midjourney and ChatGPT, Errazuriz is writing a book about AI’s impact on society and told Dezeen his opinion has not changed.
