Programmers, content creators, legal consultants, analysts, and even teachers could be replaced by AI.

Although it has only been launched for more than 2 months, ChatGPT is making many employees, despite their qualifications and years of experience, feel worried about their future employment. From answering simple questions quickly, writing a full scientific research paper in minutes, and passing a Google coding interview. ChatGPT is taking the world by surprise.

Many people worry

Day One, a forward-thinking company with multiple offices in the United States, coined the term “AI-anxiety” to describe the unease caused by artificial intelligence (AI) on human creativity. This term is adapted from “Anxiety”, it means to worry. Apparently, the term is also an appropriate description for the common fear among many employees today about losing their jobs to robots and AI. And this fear has a lot of basis in reality, most recently with the emergence of ChatGPT.

At the World Economic Forum held in October 2020, economists forecast that around 85 million jobs could be displaced by 2025 as they found that automation in the workforce is increasing at a faster rate than anticipated. Nowadays, the above prediction has been proven. While in their early stages of development, AI technologies pose a significant threat to many industries. Recently, Buzzfeed News and Media Company (USA) said that it will use AI technology to create content, while Netflix Japan has used AI-generated artwork to produce an animated movie.

Experts from Business Insider (USA) say that ChatGPT and other related AI technologies can threaten some jobs, especially office work. This list includes jobs from the tech and financial industries, as well as roles in the graphic design and media fields. They also assert that it is still uncertain which occupations can be safe from AI. However, experts say that AI technology will affect every job and every aspect of life but cannot completely replace humans. More precisely, AI technology will open a promising new gate for the labor market and employment in the new era.
