AI could replace 30-50% of jobs
AI has the potential to replace a substantial portion of the current job market
Renowned Norwegian transformation leader Jennifer Vessels predicts that artificial intelligence (AI) could potentially replace 30 to 50 percent of the current job roles. She emphasizes the need for society to proactively manage and embrace AI to survive in this changing landscape.
A Goldman Sachs study estimated that generative AI tools could impact 300 million full-time jobs globally, causing significant disruptions. However, as certain jobs face obsolescence, new opportunities emerge, with a growing demand for roles like deep learning engineers, AI chatbot developers, prompt engineers, and data annotators.
Artificial intelligence, according to Jennifer Vessels, has the potential to replace a substantial portion of the current job market, leading to a need for societal adaptation. Some experts warn that tech jobs and roles in media and the legal industry, are at risk due to AI's ability to handle tasks like data analysis, content creation, and information synthesis.
However, amid these challenges, new career opportunities are expected to emerge in fields related to AI, such as deep learning engineering, AI chatbot development, prompt engineering, and data annotation. The changing job landscape necessitates preparation, adaptation, and a proactive approach to harness AI for the benefit of society and individuals.
