Job fields that may not be able to be ‘seized’ by AI, let’s check!
Jobs that require the ability to quickly solve problems in an uncertain environment are also predicted to be safe.
NEW YORK: Since the beginning of the technological revolution in some job industries, there have been some ‘threats’ when technology is seen to be able to take over human tasks.
From looms to microchips, advanced technological approaches are seen as an alternative to solving problems and even saving time and energy in this age of digitization.
A Goldman Sachs report in March 2023 expects that artificial intelligence (AI) technology will be able to produce one-fourth of human jobs.
In addition, the report informs that across the European Union and the United States, 300 million jobs are expected to be ‘disappeared’ due to technological assistance.
Author of Rule of the Robots: How Artificial Intelligence Will Transform Everything , Martin Ford, this situation can be ‘catastrophic’ but not for all job sectors.
Some experts say that there are still jobs that artificial intelligence is not capable of doing, especially involving the special human ability to think outside the box.
Creative Fields
The sector of work in question is the creative field – which is not just changing the order of sentences or pictures but in the field of sparking ideas and creating new plans.
However, this does not mean that all ‘creative’ jobs are safe. Graphic and visual arts designer positions may be among the first to ‘extinct’; Basic algorithms can direct bots to analyze millions of images, allowing AI to master aesthetics instantly.
Medical Field, Law
There are few guarantees in other types of creativity, namely in the fields of science, medicine and law, including employees creating new legal or business strategies.
“I think there will continue to be a place in this part for people to continue to work,” said Ford.
Jobs have ‘complex’ interactions
Jobs that require complex ‘interpersonal’ relationships such as the work of nurses, business consultants and investigative journalists. This job requires a very deep understanding of people.
“I think it will take a long time before AI has the ability to interact in a deep way to build relationships”.
Adds Ford, jobs that require the ability to quickly solve problems in an uncertain environment are also predicted to be safe.
What is meant is the work of technicians, plumbers, welders and so on.
“This is the kind of job where you’re dealing with new situations all the time. It’s the hardest to automate. For a job like this, you need a science fiction robot. You need C-3PO from Star Wars ,” he said.
