Artificial Intelligence (AI) has slowly been taking over various industries, and now, a new AI chatbot called ChatGPT is threatening to cut down 30 crore jobs worldwide. While the technology has made content curation and creation easier and faster for millions, it also poses a threat to the education and content writing industries.
Reports indicate that over 47% of jobs in the United States and similar rates in other developed countries can potentially be cut due to AI advancements over the next 10 years. ChatGPT has already become a popular tool among students for completing essays and homework assignments.
As AI technology advances, it could potentially replace white-collar office jobs and reduce costs and man-hours for several industries. Goldman Sachs has predicted that AI like ChatGPT can replace over 30 crore jobs, which accounts for over 18% of the global workforce by 2023.
While researchers have stated that the threat of AI replacing jobs in India is not immediate, the situation is more persistent in advanced countries due to their reliance on white-collar jobs. Here are five industries that are most threatened by AI chatbot, ChatGPT:
1. Education industry: AI chatbots like ChatGPT are already being used by students to complete their homework. Its ability to create customized essays and answers can potentially replace instructors.
2. Content writing industry: ChatGPT’s ease of usage and ability to generate coherent and high-quality content at a faster rate than humans is a threat to content writers.
3. Customer service industry: Chatbots powered by AI can provide customer support services, reducing the need for human customer service representatives.
4. Accounting industry: AI technology can process large amounts of data in a shorter amount of time, reducing the need for human accountants.
5. Healthcare industry: AI-powered diagnostic tools can accurately detect illnesses faster and more efficiently than humans, reducing the need for doctors and medical professionals.
While the future of AI is uncertain, it is clear that ChatGPT and other chatbots are revolutionizing the way we work. While it may lead to job loss for several industries, there is also the potential for AI to create new jobs in areas we may not even know exist yet.
