How Will Artificial Intelligence Change Your Jobs?

The three ways that artificial intelligence will change your job forever.

 

Artificial intelligence is becoming more capable by the day,

 

Learning new skills and therefore changing the jobs and tasks humans will perform in the future,

 

Here we look at how ai will change our jobs forever.

 

Google's CEO Sundar Pincha recently predicted that Artificial Intelligence (AI) will turn out to be the most profound human invention so far,

 

more so than electricity  the internet or  even fire.

 

Certainly believe ai will deeply impact everything from the way we live our lives to the way we work and do business,

 

Whatever job you do now if it isn't affected by Artificial Intelligence (AI) already,

 

It is very likely that it will be at some point in the not too distant future.

 

Here are the three most significant changes Artificial Intelligence (AI) will make to the world of work in our lifetimes.

 

1 - AI Won't Make You Redundant Yet

 

 

Ai is able to do more things so much more quickly and efficiently that it won't make sense to pay humans to do them anymore,

 

this will include things like sensing  moving  things around scheduling translating and so on.

 

One way to look at this is that ai will shift our work to higher value and more human activities,

 

it has the potential to relieve us from the mundane and repetitive elements of our work,

 

so the best way to make sure we don't become redundant is to work in jobs where our value is elsewhere and where we can excel the things ai can't do,

 

we look at the job of a radiologist for example

 

Ai can now interpret ct scans find and diagnose problems,

 

but it can't do the personalizing of the treatment the future research the innovations and this is where humans will excel at in the future.

 

2 - Smart Machines Will Augment And Assist Us

 

When we are carrying out more of those human creative and strategic tasks,

 

that won't be automated anytime soon we can expect robots and smart machines to be there to lend us a hand.

 

This could mean having analytics tools to make sure our decisions are underpinned by solid data.

 

for example hr roads will still require a human touch to solve human centric problems,

 

but increasingly Ai is used in recruitment to provide initial screening of the thousands of applications that many large organizations receive.

 

we wouldn't give a machine the entire responsibility for picking who will work for us,

 

but it can greatly improve efficiency by providing early indications of who might be the most suitable applicant.

 

In addition to these software boards that augment white collar work many blue collar employees will find themselves working alongside machines in a very literal sense,

 

for example collaborative robots or cohorts work with humans and amazon's warehouses and in ericsson's 5g smart factory.

 

cobalts carry out assembly packing and dispatch tasks,  

 

while security drones patrol the premises to deter intruders.

 

our ability and willingness to get along with our new robot colleagues is likely to play a big part in determining how successful we will be in the future world of work,  

 

and for businesses the challenge will be to make sure humans and robots are both spending their time on the jobs they are best at.

 

3 – Artificial Intelligence Will Create New Types Of Jobs

 

We can learn from earlier industrial revolutions,

 

certainly plowmen weavers smith lost their jobs during the mechanization of the early 19th century,

 

but as the first mechanized factories emerged people moved to the city and quality of life improved for many people,

 

this led to new business opportunities to provide services needed to keep everything running and to ensure people are fed happy and entertained,

 

the same will undoubtedly be true for the AI revolution.

 

Business & society are going through a period of adjustment,

 

as we come to understand the power of smart machines & automation,

 

the human skills needed to lead the way on this are in high demand,

 

The key thing to remember here is that any job that can easily be automated will be automated,

 

However overall Ai will create millions of more jobs than it will destroy,

 

Demand is already outstripping supply for data scientists and machine engineers,

 

but we won't just need technical skills.

 

Businesses will require the human skills that aren't likely to be automated anytime soon.

 

These include

 

Emotional

Intelligence

Creativity

Personal communication

Critical thinking and

Leadership.
