Over the last a few years AI has witnessed unprecedented developments and as it continues to advance, an ongoing debate comes up over the future impact of it on jobs. While some argue that it will displace many human professions because of automation feature, I side with those who believe it will create new job opportunities that involve creativity.
AI has undeniably led to the displacement of many jobs already. It is now being used in industries, such as manufacturing, which consist of repetition and resulted growth in productivity. Other jobs like cashier and receptionist are also going to be AI powered because requests of the customers and problems they encounter are mostly similar. AI has significant effects on business field too. Market trends that take hours to analyze and estimate future patterns for people can be done by AI in much reduced amount of time.
On the other hand, AI is making a way for new occupations. Although it has advanced profoundly, there are a lot of things should be done in creating and optimizing new varieties. In turn, this is giving a rise to workplaces in software engineering where demand for creative designers and developers is high. Moreover, all industries and companies will at least partly embrace AI based technologies and there will be a growing need for individuals who can regulate the interactions between humans and machines. They should ensure that whether AI systems are working effectively with himans, increasing productivity and efficiency.
To conclude, while some people are concerned about possible increase in the unemployment rate because of the integration of AI in repetitive and time-consuming jobs, I favour those who think it will provide new employment openings in software engineering and other various fields
