New AI may threaten 'safe' office jobs, say researchers | BBC News

  • Humans already work alongside robots in industries such as manufacturing.
    Now, for knowledge workers, the threat of AI (artificial intelligence) replacement is coming faster than they imagined.
    In early 2023, OpenAI's ChatGPT ushered in a new era - one in which AI went from a pipe dream to a very real, contentious issue for workers.
    The stakes are high: an April report from Goldman Sachs estimates ChatGPT, and other similar generative AI tools, could increase global GDP by as much as 7%, while replacing 300 million full time workers.
    Yet the light-speed adoption and evolution of generative AI tools may now mean knowledge-work jobs that were long considered "safe" could be threatened even faster than workers anticipated.
    That includes creative positions that many presumed would be hard to automate, in fields like marketing, music production and graphic design.
    Accordingly, researchers have found that the "exposure curve is upward-sloping", says Mark Muro, a senior fellow at The Brookings Institution, who focuses on the interplay of technology, people and places.

    Your employer, beholden to its investors, will do whatever it can to reduce costs. You are one of those costs. If your job is anything that can be boiled down to a set of rules, it will be replaced by automated systems.
    Although, once the investor/owner/Billionaire class realises this also applies to CEO's, CFO's etc, they will be tossed away like the rest of us........

    This is going to be a much bigger issue than they realize, for which merely retraining people will not be enough. AI is going to displace a shocking amount of jobs, some forecasts suggest nearly a QUARTER of the workforce could be looking at being out competed by AI, by 2030! It's not going to create tons of new jobs either, as some dismissively suggest, what could it create that it couldn't also do itself? It'll create a few jobs, for a few people, but not the kinds of jobs that will re-employ all those displaced. We need to start thinking about new economic standards, and how to transition to them. We should probably tax AI as it takes over labor, and use that to fund an AI Dividend for all, or an Unconditional Basic Income tied to AI.
    By the way, the jobs of these reporters may very well be the next thing to go, within a year or so. If the Channel1 ai promo that just came out, is any indicator.

    Retraining will perpetually struggle to keep pace with advancements in AI. Once self-improving AI becomes a norm, all knowledge workers worldwide will face risks. Regardless of the new jobs for which people are trained, AI will outperform them. Physical jobs, such as sewer work or extermination, will remain in demand due to the greater complexity and capital intensity of robotics compared to knowledge work. It is challenging to find a mid-level manager willing to switch to a job that involves physical labor.

      @@user-qd4xs8zb8s Well, I'm retired and financially secure. That doesn't mean I don't have kids and grandkids I care for and worry about. I would love to believe that AI will be the ultimate achievement that will finally free humanity from the monotony of employment. Then I come up against the question of "what will people actually do" once they are free from wage slavery? When the North freed the slaves, this became quite a problem for THEM. So what to do? Make art? Good luck with that, when AI has already demonstrated that it can produce creative results in any of the arts that a biological manure machine might spend a lifetime replicating at 20% of the quality level of a minimally capable AI. As much as we love expressions like "human potential" and "each life is precious," the reality is far less poetic. Planet earth will soon have way, WAY more hairless monkies than it needs, and quite possibly more than the planet can easily support. And while this isn't necessarily a problem that AI cannot solve, I must again ask "to what end?" I have my thoughts on this, but no one with a wet-ware brain is going to like it (at least not initially). AI will soon be able to create the formula for virtually any drug compound one might desire. It will soon likely be able to create drugs that will keep the human pleasure centers sparking with activity 24/7. Baring that, some form of imersive VR might make every human the god of their own self conceived universe. I've likely prattled on far too long about this, but consider one or two of the bigger questions I've posited.

    And most likely AI will enhance high skilled workers but by doing so replaces probably 50% of the colleagues. If one lawyer can do the job of 5 lawyers why keep those other 5 around? UBI is the way to go. More people would have time to also become entrepreneurs and can create start ups. Others could use their time to help out their communities. Others would use the time to stay with the kids and partake really in their lives.
    If UBI recipients are forced to do unnecessary work to „earn“ their money than that is absolute nonsense. Why force them to do again unnecessary work? And some jobs would still exist so I could see some UBI recipients using their free time to learn new skills to do that work if the want more than just the UBI.

    Jobs that emphasize skills once deemed essential, such as communication skills, will not be entirely eliminated but will significantly lose value. For instance, MSDOS proficiency was once highly sought after, but the advent of MSWINDOWS rendered it less important. Similarly, the ability to compose a clear and actionable email will soon be regarded as a supplementary skill. Employers globally will likely reduce the value of entire categories of workers by 50% or more. Like skilled factory jobs that used to sustain a family of four, mid-level management and similar positions will face substantial devaluation. Those who become unemployed in the coming years may be startled by the reduced salaries offered in their next jobs. The socioeconomic and political consequences of this shift will be profound.

    Aka. you're going to need UBI sooner than you think. The foundation of modern capitalism is that there is value in work, when that's not the case anymore because AI will do any kind of work, that system ceases to function for humanity.
    Of course it's going to take quite a while before _everything_ can be done by AI, but depending on how AGI develops that may be way sooner than you think.

      I disagree. I don't know why you think corporate elites would act benevolently towards humanity. Do you really believe they are kind and charitable enough to sustain people who have become utterly redundant in the world? As soon as job automation approaches 100%, these elites will likely eradicate the human race, leaving the planet solely for themselves.

      @@chrisstucker1813 I think AI is going to speed up research so much that universities and labs will figure out cheaper ways to automate stuff, maybe through new materials or something. Even hands-on jobs like welding and plumbing could see automation. With smarter tech, robots might do these jobs more efficiently and at a lower cost in the long run.

Compare that with smartphones today that only cost a few hundred dollars to manufacture, are incomparably more advanced in terms of processing power and can fit into your trouser pocket! I read that it would take 600,000 of those room-sized computers to match the processing power of the iphone 14.

    AI replacing jobs is a good thing. We just need to redefine our concept of currency. In the not too distant future (10-50yrs) we will see AI doing most of the work that humans currently do. A lot of jobs will be lost along the way as AI progresses. The ultimate goal with AI though is to help us evolve from a society that has to work for a living, to being a society that is essentially retired from birth, and free to pursue whatever interest we want. The concept of economy won't disappear, but it needs to be redefined in preparation for this event.

    It could only generate extraordinary wealth if the goods and services are utilized at the same rate after automation has take a hold; you assume that some of the services being sold arent already being utilized by those who are about to get laid off; this problem is self limiting and will have a rubber banding effect when the companies adopting the AI cost savings will see a drop in revenue, because those who they used to sell to, used to work for them and are now unable to buy their services. Ofcourse, you can assume that they will increase their prices with hope of recouping the loss in volumetric revenue, but that will only work until the affluent themselves cant pay themselves with the bonuses that they received from the AI based cost cutting. Basically, you are setting the West as a whole up for an eventual Bastille day.

    Countries with the highest level of automation tend to have the lowest unemployement rates. Besides, it needs a lot of effort to make AI systems work. In supervised learning for industrial image computation for example, you need expert knowledge about the processes for labeling and verification in order to improve your models. Therefore, jobs like data curators will occur imho. The skill sets will be different and i would guess that education will be the key. Mindless work will be automated but new jobs are created. Prompt engineering maybe also a good example, since it actually need skills to ask the right questions and also the ability to understand the answers to verify properly their correctness.

      The issue is that AI automation represents a completely different kind of automation than anything we've seen before. It's not just a new tractor or a loom; it's a new form of intelligent life capable of performing any task humans can do. In a few years, the very concept of employment may cease to exist.

There is only 1 TV show I watch a year for the last 2 years, budgets and shareholder profits are destroying TV/films. It's like the Playstation games scene I guess, lots of rubbish big budget sequels and lots of low quality other stuff. We need original ideas in the budget of sequels. AI video clips I found are the most advanced, AI text to speech dialogue/voice-overs are acceptable with some manual pitch control for a Netflix type movie. Music is really the only aspect that isn't even close. The same way 3 secretaries on typewriters would replace with 1 using a word processor by the mid 80s there will be a lot of jobs lost in the media industry. Also means there will be a lot more tacky actors+projector screen rubbish rather than actual talented location scouts and real location filming. AI does mean I have the potential to make a full length movie I want to exist all by myself on my PC, that is new and I welcome this new era personally. if I can do that with only weeks of experience with AI tools then just imagine what someone from the industry could manage.

      Let me share from my most recent AI class.
      My instructor mentioned that they were looking for a new car...and approached a certain dealership.
      They contacted a salesman and asked about this and that over the phone... that salesman (well sales woman by the voice and name) answered, followed up, and kept keeping in touch. even after they had bought a car somewhere else.
      After receiving one of HER emails, they decided to call her again to make sure she knew she was wasting her time.
      They got a different sales person, and laughed at them. politely mind you. They told my instructor that the "person" they had talked to and the follow up emails were all AI, and that it was not a real person. By not buying the vehicle there, the AI had not hit the "operation done" switch basically and kept trying to sell them a car.
      Now, my instructor is IN the AI field, they are also educated enough to TEACH AI at a collegiate level. They never suspected that their sales woman was an AI. not in her speech, nor her emails.
      It is already there to where you are listening to it and do not know it. What you hear and understand is comp generated is the BOTTOM of current abilities. The top is MUCH better.
      There are quite a few language models that are just for that...learning and replicating normal speech LLM, NLP are just two of the major forms ( large language models, and natural language processing) that we covered in class. They are part of the learning AI stuff...again though they do not create per se... they replicate and adapt what is already there. BUT they ARE good, and are only going to get better.
