You cannot read any newspaper, media report, or publication these days without a mention of AI and its impact to disrupting business in shaping new ways or working, augmenting human intelligence, or raising genuine fears of what have we unleashed in our societal structures.

IBM’s survey in 2022 predicted that the AI global adoption is already over 35 percent in using AI to modernize business practices and processes.

It’s already over a decade now since Oxford researchers, Carl Frey and Michael Osborne in their seminal research, declared that over 47 percent of jobs would disappear by 2030.

Apple CEO Tim Cook has told UK press that the company is “of course” working on generative AI, and that he expects to hire more Artificial intelligence staff in that country.

Just hours after Apple put a spotlight on how it supports over half a million jobs in the UK, Tim Cook has been talking about increasing that by hiring more staff working in AI.

According to London’s Evening Standard, Cook was asked by the PA news agency about AI and hiring in the UK. Cook said: “We’re hiring in that area, yes, and so I do expecting [recruitment] to increase.”

Mihai Gruieti, the CEO of Digital Gate Amg who is dedicated to advancing embedded systems encourages tech professionals to embrace AI adaptation rather than harbor apprehensions.

As you wake up to the sound of an alarm clock, head out for a run with your headphones on, and return home to bake breakfast cookies in a microwave/oven. Ever thought of how such electronics are functional and advancing so rapidly?

Now, imagine a small-sized computer that can perform a specific task but each chip is customizable for different industries and jobs. Even operating a microwave or listening to music on headphones are all operational due to embedded system applications.

Not all wages are bad. If you’re a doctor or nurse you can earn decent. Even a PC tech can earn around $24 an hour or more and cyber security 100k and if you are an engineer you can earn a lot. If you work in a gas station however you won’t earn much. If you are in assembly not much either. It takes skills to earn money. Plus the politicians determine the wages too, it’s not all on big tech. Some tech companies pay more than others of course but knowing AI will increase your wages. They have courses on ChatGPT online now. Even if you run a farm you earn the most money. They’re afraid of progress or I dunno what. Yes we proceed with caution but it’s not like we stop. China won’t nor Russia nor the Middle East etc and even if we’re not in conflict we’ll be left behind.

New book re-examines textile workers’ uprising against the use of technology to erase jobs centuries ago in light of similar problems stemming from AI.

In an age of unpredictable job evolution, it is hard to argue that the knowledge acquisition historically associated with a university degree is still relevant. But as university qualifications become more commonplace, recruiters and employers will increasingly demand them, regardless of whether they are actually required for a specific job. Research shows that the correlation between education level and job performance is weak, and that intelligence scores are a much better indicator of job potential. If we were to pick between a candidate with a college degree and a candidate with a higher intelligence score, we could expect the latter to outperform the former in most jobs, particularly when those jobs require constant thinking and learning.
