Princeton University published a new study in which he identified 20 professions that are most at risk of disappearance due to the development of artificial intelligence (AI). The study showed that the operators of the call centers are most dangerous to lose their jobs, they are followed by teachers of various disciplines, including law, history, religion and languages.
The authors of the study stated that II will have a multilateral impact on work. In some cases, AI will replace the work that was previously performed by people, and in other cases, AI will supplement the work performed by people. Recent achievements in the field of language modeling using AI, such as ChatGPT, aroused great interest and disputes.
To determine the degree of automation of various professions using AI, researchers built an algorithm that connected 10 AI -based applications, such as modeling language, images generation and translation, with 52 human abilities, such as hands stability and understanding by hearing.
It is interesting that many of the works that are at risk are highly paid roles requiring a significant level of education, including budget analysts, actuaries, accountants and judges. However, when the authors of the study adjusted the algorithm taking into account the recent achievements in the field of modeling the language, the list of work under threat has changed significantly.
employees of call centers were recognized as the most vulnerable, which is not surprising, given that many companies are already using AI chat bots to fulfill the duties associated with this role. The authors of the study suggest that human telemarketologists can better use the modeling of the language if it will be used to improve their work. One example is the use of customer answers in real time to provide the appropriate tips to the telemarketeologist.
Of the 20 professions listed in the study, 14 were teachers of higher education in various disciplines, including geography, religion, history, English and sociology. The authors of the study noted that the professions in the field of education will most likely be more affected by the development of language modeling compared to other professions.
This study was published shortly after the researchers from Ekoltik, Federal de Lausanne (EPFL), revealed which professions, in their opinion, will most likely be replaced by robots.
