AI is the next workplace disruptor - Wall Street Journal article suggest

-

 

Eric Morath's 2020 Wall Street Journal article discusses the future implications of AI in various job sectors like marketing, finance, and programming, based on a study by Stanford University economist Michael Webb. The study, analyzing over 16,000 AI patents, suggests that AI will increasingly replace human tasks, potentially risking job loss. However, the article emphasizes that not all jobs will vanish; rather, AI will serve as a learning tool for employees, shifting their roles towards more interpersonal and strategic aspects while AI handles data analysis and digital tasks. Despite its age, the article remains relevant as it underscores the need for businesses to adapt to AI rather than fear its impact on employment.

  Artificial Intelligence has had a lengthy history of coming about to what we know it as today. From the early 1960s when the first chatbot Eliza was created to Apple releasing Siri in 2011, and now we have ChatGPT and full-on AI services that will do almost anything you want it to do with the right prompt. Having AI integrated into the workplace can be scary and confusing if it is not understood and learned (Dollins, 2024). Specifically in the business workplace, AI is changing for good and bad and has its positives and negatives (Gomez, 2024). One of the most common AI software used in the workplace is ChatGPT. Many fear that ChatGPT will replace workers and essentially take the roll of many employees. But sources show with the right training and knowledge of the use of AI, employers and employees can learn to work together with AI to make their jobs better and more efficient (Hyeon, 2023).  References:  Mcintosh, S., Phillips, S., & Dollins, M.
