Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming business and will contribute to economic growth through productivity. They will also help  address societal challenges in areas ranging from health to climate change.

Also, these technologies will change the nature of work and the workplace itself. Machines will be able to do more tasks than humans do, complement the tasks humans do, and even perform some tasks that are beyond human capability. As a result, some businesses will decline, others will rise, and many more will change.

Workers will need to learn new skills and adopt increasingly capable machines alongside them in the workplace. They may have to move from declining businesses to growing and in some cases to new businesses.

Let’s be honest here, Artificial intelligence can cause a big impact here, it will affect some jobs, however, more jobs will be replaced by them. But what kinds of jobs are being created and what kinds of jobs are being removed?

The future jobs is uncertain.
