AI and Jobs

I wouldn’t be so sure, Ziggy. It’s the boring, routine things that AI is already starting to do. Notice how often we have to go through an AI bot when we phone for service. The bot takes care of the easiest problems, then sends us to a person when the problem is more complicated. I’m guessing the bots will gradually get more proficient, and the humans involved will be the ones with more expertise.

A lot of research is going on to develop robots that can do physical work:

But presumably the robots will be used when the work can be automated, which means repeatable procedures, or when they are being directed by humans.

Big changes are coming — we’re just seeing the start of it.

    I believe I saw this robot on 60 Minutes. He was working on lifting car parts. I read that AI is going to change the world more drastically than anything ever has. And not all in a good way either.

    AI can be quite handy but I don’t think it should be used to the extent where people no longer do things for themselves.

  7. I really do worry about people and their jobs because of AI. I just wonder how AI will affect James growing up. I don’t like it and I certainly don’t like those robots.

    Hi Jean, I am glad that I am retired. I think there will be both good and bad….let’s just hope more good than bad!
