Recently, Business Insider** listed 10 jobs that AI technologies such as ChatGPT could replace. Last year, a study by Goldman Sachs Investment Bank found that generative AI could actually affect 300 million full-time jobs worldwide and could lead to "severe disruption" in the job market. An analysis released by McKinsey & Company last July showed that nearly 12 million Americans may need to change jobs by 2030. At the same time, 30% of jobs in the United States will be automated. Here's a list of the 10 jobs most likely to be replaced by AI compiled by Business Insider**.
1.Coders, computer programmers, software engineers, data analysts.
McKinsey partner Madagavka said that a lot of the jobs of software developers, web developers, computer programmers, coders and data scientists are "well suited" to be replaced by AI because AI like ChatGPT is good at processing numbers accurately and can generate them faster than humans**. Currently, tech companies such as OpenAI, the maker of ChatGPT, have considered replacing software engineers with artificial intelligence.
2.*Staff member.
Because AI is so good at reading, writing, and understanding text-based data, it is able to accomplish tasks such as advertising, content creation, technical article writing, and news writing more efficiently than humans. The industry has already started generating content with AI. Tech News Cnet has written dozens of articles using artificial intelligence tools similar to ChatGPT, while Buzzfeed has used ChatGPT technology to generate content like quizzes and travel guides. But Madagavka said AI-generated content cannot be fully automated because it requires "a lot of human judgment."
3.Paralegal, legal assistant.
Before the advent of ChatGPT, legal services in the United States were already highly integrated with artificial intelligence. Like workers, paralegals and paralegals work to digest large amounts of information and then synthesize what they have learned to write an easy-to-understand legal summary or opinion. Madagavka says language-oriented work like this is vulnerable to automation. But again, AI can't fully automate these jobs because it requires a certain level of human judgment to understand the needs of customers or employers.
4.Market analysts.
Artificial intelligence is good at analyzing data and results. So market research analysts are susceptible to AI. Market research analysts collect data, identify trends in the data, and then use the data to develop a marketing plan or decide to place an ad in the market. Artificial intelligence can completely replace these jobs.
5.Teacher.
At the moment, ChatGPT can already teach courses. Although it has errors and inaccuracies in knowledge, it is relatively easy to improve because it only needs to be strengthened to train ChatGPT.
6.Financial Analyst, Personal Financial Advisor.
Like market research analysts, financial analysts, personal financial advisors, and other financial jobs that need to process large amounts of digital data are also affected by AI. AI can identify market trends, show which investments in a portfolio are performing better and worse, and then use data from financial firms to make a better portfolio.
7.Traders.
Experts say ChatGPT could upend jobs in multiple industries, from traders to investment banks. For example, a college graduate working at an investment bank needs to spend two or three years working like a robot and doing excel modeling. This kind of work can be completely replaced by artificial intelligence.
8.Graphic designer.
In a December 2022 article published in the Harvard Business Review, the three professors pointed to Dall-E, an artificial intelligence tool that can generate images in seconds, as a potential disruptor in the graphic design industry. But Frey, an economist at the University of Oxford, said AI tools such as ChatGPT could help people in "creative" industries such as art and graphic design create higher-quality work.
9.Accountant.
Accounting is often considered a stable profession, but the profession also faces the threat posed by artificial intelligence.
10.Customer service staff.
You must have had the experience of calling the company's customer service department and getting a bot answer. Artificial intelligence technologies such as ChatGPT will reinforce this trend. According to a study by technology research firm Gartner**, chatbots will be the primary customer service channel for about 25% of companies by 2027.
