these are the jobs that will disappear because of artificial intelligence
The advent of ChatGPT, DALL-E, Midjourney and many more generative Artificial Intelligences that offer amazing results have started the debate of their ethical limits, as they they could lead to the disappearance of some jobs.. OpenAI, Elon Musk’s company responsible for the creation of GPT, is aware that there will be current jobs for which people will no longer be hired and they have had to study this to find out what impact their tool may have on the world as we know it.
A paper shared by the firm specializing in AI explains that language models such as GPT will affect jobs. As collected, about 80% of the U.S. workforce will have to use an AI-enabled tool in at least 10% of their tasks.
Overall, AIs will directly affect 19% of jobs. To reach these conclusions, OpenAI analyzed as many as 19,260 different and 2,087 work processes described in the O*NET 27.2 database, which takes into account a total of 1,016 different jobs.
According to Musk’s company, “higher income” jobs will notice the presence of GPT and similar systems the most. On the one hand, it will highlight the presence of these language models in jobs that are based on. on writing and programming, and lawyers, engineers, clerks, accountants or mathematicians.. On the other hand, work involving critical thinking, such as those involving a scientific nature, will not be as noticeable using these AI tools.
As a conclusion, OpenAI data point out that the more education and training a job requires, the more likely it is to be replaced by an AI (although there are exceptions). Meanwhile, jobs with more manual labor and typically lower wages will be less affected. The latter are the athletes, cooks, mechanics, bricklayers, those in charge of agricultural machinery.
To reassure employees in positions that would be susceptible to replacement, OpenAI notes that “this does not necessarily suggest that their tasks can be fully automated by these technologies.” In addition, they remind that there are “social, economic, regulatory and other factors.” that must be taken into account.
