ChatGPT and AI: The Future of Work Disruption Across Multiple Industries
Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly ChatGPT (Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer), has been widely discussed for its potential to replace various types of jobs, including teaching.
ChatGPT is a technology installed in computers and other devices like robots, capable of assisting individuals in whatever they request, both through written text and spoken language.
This AI tool, developed by the American research laboratory OpenAI in November 2022, is portrayed by the news site *Insider* as a system that uses technological devices to perform tasks traditionally carried out by humans.
Technology
The job of creating software programs, especially mobile applications, has been in high demand, with many graduates working in this field. However, ChatGPT is said to be on the verge of replacing these jobs.
Among the tasks ChatGPT is expected to take over soon, according to *Insider*, are writing computer programs, building websites, coding, and analyzing scientific data.
Journalism
*Insider* claims that since ChatGPT is highly proficient in writing stories better than humans, it could replace many journalists, particularly in advertising and content writing. However, human supervision will still be necessary to operate the AI.
The platform states, “ChatGPT can be more skilled at writing and reporting news than people.”
Legal Assistance
Legal support, such as representing individuals in court, could also be efficiently handled by Chatbot technology, though human judgment will still be required in some instances.
While AI will be capable of performing many legal tasks, a few lawyers will be needed to guide and monitor the technology since it can make mistakes.
Economic Analysis
As a tool that leverages artificial intelligence, ChatGPT is seen as adept at analyzing economic data, even surpassing human experts in predicting future trends based on already gathered information.
Education
*Insider* reveals that AI is causing concern among educators, as some schools no longer require teachers to be physically present. Students can now rely on computers to provide all the information they need.
However, teachers who remain employed in the future will be those who can train ChatGPT to better deliver lessons, as AI will always need human guidance.
Financial Services
Experts in artificial intelligence highlight how financial services are increasingly being automated and handed over to computers.
Aside from deposits and withdrawals that have significantly reduced bank lines and staff at counters, ChatGPT technology is also proving capable of analyzing, learning, and identifying markets.
This AI is also proficient in analyzing financial plans, offering financial advice, and performing desired accounting tasks, according to researcher Muro from The Brookings Institute.
Commerce
Pengcheng Shi, the director of the American Rochester Institute of Technology, mentions that in major markets like Wall Street, people are engaged in trade, but in some places, computers and robots are already doing this work.
Technology experts predict that in the near future, computers and robots will replace many human jobs since they don’t require salaries, benefits, or insurance.
Graphic Design
Artificial intelligence technology like DALL-E demonstrates that it can create desired images within seconds, whereas a skilled graphic designer might spend hours working on the same project.
Accounting
*Insider* reports that accountants and auditors may also face job loss, as computers powered by ChatGPT are capable of performing all their tasks.
Customer Service
This job sector is increasingly being handled by computers. A study by *Insider* from 2023 predicts that by 2027, 25% of companies will use ChatGPT as their primary method for handling customer service.
