Description:
Will AI actually replace us, or will it just make our lives more productive?

FULL STORY
======================================================================

New YouGov findings (via City AM ), almost half (44%) of C-suite executives 
reckon AI could replace human jobs. 

The study of more than 1,000 business decision makers focused on the 
productivity benefits, whereby workers can free up more of their time to 
focus on what matters, however concerns have been risen globally about the 
negative impacts on jobs. 

Another study of 14,000 employees and business leaders across 17 countries by 
Oracle found that seven in 10 leaders would prefer robots or AI to handle the 
decision making process, so what exactly does the future hold for our jobs? 
Will AI take my job? 

Speaking to City AM, one legal expert described the transition as the 
evolution of our jobs rather than total elimination. Workers will be able to 
leverage more tools and shift their focus, rewriting what many careers mean 
entirely. Read more

Arguably one of AIs most powerful capabilities is to be able to handle large 
amounts of data. With a huge majority (92%) of Oracles respondents claiming 
that excess data is complicating decision making, it seems that AI writers 
like ChatGPT could be best suited to automations, processing, and reporting, 
thus presenting no threat to the soft skills that only human workers can 
offer. 

Even so, that hasnt stopped Tesla and Twitter CEO and AI-aficionado Elon 
Musk, along with Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and many more, from signing a 
letter demanding a six-month stop on the development of AI systems as the 
world reconvenes and reasseses, ahead of a potentially out-of-control race to 
develop and deploy ever more powerful digital minds that no one - not even 
their creators - can understand, predict, or reliably control. 

Frankly, artificial intelligence trained on large language models is an 
incredibly powerful weapon against some of the challenges businesses face 
each day, but a humans touch is irreplaceable leaving workers facing more of 
a shift than a total threat. Still spending time working from home? Heres the 
best hybrid working tech you need
