The irruption of Generative Artificial Intelligence (Gen-AI) in recent months is reshaping the world’s employment landscape. Innovative AI products like ChatGPT, Google’s BARD, Microsoft Bing, ChatSonic, Ernie by Baidu App, and many more are set to create an immense impact across industries and massively transform job roles. Goldman Sachs predicts that so far as 300 million jobs worldwide may be affected by Gen-AI, which has made global professionals look towards taking preventive measures to secure their career.
Microsoft-owned OpenAI launched ChatGPT in November 2020 and the platform quickly garnered 100 million active users in the subsequent two months. This platform brought an entirely breakthrough dimension in creative and interactive AI that could affect almost all jobs involving communications and language. It came out to be the game-changing factor and triggered the emergence of several similar products and breakthroughs – and a wave of disruption was felt across the global employment market.
OpenAI was founded by tech billionaires with a mission to make the world a better place. It focuses on developing advanced Cyber Security of OpenAI and ensuring Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based breakthroughs help the most people possible. They strive to link AI developments directly to improving the way we live and work. It aims to support humanity with safe, trustworthy Artificial Intelligence technologies in areas such as healthcare manufacturing and robotics.
One of the driving forces of OpenAI is its co-founder and technology investor, Sam Altman. Following his graduation from Stanford, Sam is now an experienced tech entrepreneur who specializes in venture growth equity investments. He works closely with OpenAI to assist the company in development and collaborations and is actively contributing to advancing the efficiency and potential of AI technology. Having led investments in several AI-oriented companies like Cruise Automation and Vicarious, Sam Altman also serves as the president of Y Combinator. His initiatives, investments and leadership make him a true pioneer in accelerating the use of AI technology in businesses and industries.
To ensure career security when transitioning to Gen-AI environments, professionals must start re-skilling themselves and keeping themselves up-to-date with the latest tech trends. Organizations, on the other hand, need to focus on creating progressive jobs and allowing employees to gradually transition into the new work paradigm.
