A lot of people ask this question with the fear that their jobs will be taken away by a bunch of code, and rightfully so because AI is pretty good at doing many things, so let's use a minute to see what AI can really do.
AI in self driving cars can displace taxi drivers, AI can develop software which displaces a lot of junior developers, AI systems can be embedded in robots to perform tasks, so it can greatly displace manual labourers. It can also outperform accountants at a cognitive level, process data and information in milliseconds, multi-task, and even do things like generate images and videos, draw, animate and even produce music. I'm sure you must have seen your job title or description up there and told yourself that once your company announces they wants to integrate AI into their system, you'll turn in your resignation letter.
So, if AI is this brilliant, how can we outperform them? The truth is, you almost can't. They're always going to be faster to solve more problems than an average man, or outperform people in the office in terms of productivity. However, they're things that people can do that AI simply can't. For instance, AI can't solve a complex problem for the first time ever. It has to be seen somewhere, solved, and recorded somewhere on the Internet that the AI can now reference and reproduce. They're not sympathetic, or even actually intelligent. They're just good at recognizing patterns.
AI is a tool, and it's one that should be used. If AI is a tool that you can't use or it cannot be used for your job to make your efficiency better, there's a high chance that it's going to take your job. Honestly, AI is only going to take the jobs of people who can't work with it, but if you master using AI for your business or career, then believe me, AI will be on of you greatest assets.
I hope this helps, and I hope we understand that AI is not the enemy looking out for our jobs, it's made to help with them. It's been real, I see you on the next one.
