The impact of ChatGPT and other similar technologies on society and the workforce is not a question of IF, but HOW.

This AI tool has learned how humans work behind a computer and is continuously learning from billions of content pages and sheets, Microsoft tools, online interactions, and new inputs that upgrade its knowledge base.

As a result, all people working behind a computer can be deeply affected by ChatGPT.

The digital disruption brought about by ChatGPT is likely to reduce the salaries of knowledge workers, and there are several examples of how this could happen.

 Here’s a breakdown of how AI is expected to impact several different professions:

• Developers: According to experts, AI tools will enable developers to create products with 80% less time and more accuracy. This will result in the displacement of millions of developers and a reduction in their average salaries.
• Dieticians and other knowledge-based workers: It’s not difficult to build an AI-powered dietician that can accurately support our diet with just a few prompts. This will reduce the number of clients for dieticians and other similar professions.
• Marketers and digital marketers: AI tools like ChatGPT can replace marketers by doing their job entirely and empower them. This will lead to the lowering of average salaries for marketers and will force millions to seek more lucrative fields.
• Journalists: AI tools like ChatGPT can write high-quality articles quickly, which will replace many journalists. The new journalist will be someone who gathers facts on the field, and their salaries will be higher, but they will spend less time in front of a computer. This will also lead to the decline of printed journals, as AI can create new editions in seconds.
• Graphic designers and photographers: Midjourney and other AI tools can easily replace these workers in media-related fields, and the average salary will collapse as there is no need to fine-tune photos or create designs manually.
• Content creators: While AI can generate great texts in seconds, content creators like copywriters, editors, and screenwriters will initially benefit, but will eventually lose their jobs as AI tools continue to advance.
• Analytical scientists: While labs will benefit significantly from AI, automation will axe profiles that make routines that can be automated. Data governance will play a pivotal role in the future.
• Lawyers: When blockchain came out, the technology promised to revolutionize banks and real estate. In particular, real estate attorneys, also known as property lawyers, were expected to have a counterpart in the blockchain in terms of function and role. This shift did not occur, as humans were hesitant to fully trust technology.  No laws were enacted to replace lawyers with blockchain technology. Similarly, there is a possibility that ChatGPT could fully replace lawyers in interpreting cases based on laws and policies. However, it will be challenging to convince people to replace human lawyers with a chat robot.
• Entrepreneurs, startups, little Companies: they will extremely benefit from ChatGPT. Many employees will be replaced by this tool. In order to start a new company, the entrepreneur will focus on automate many tasks behind the management, focusing on the real business. Microsoft is indeed investing huge resources in his tool Microsoft Automate linked with ChatGPT. How new companies will look like? The entrepreneur, high qualified focused business manager/s, a prompt engineer, ChatGPT, automation tools. No secretary, no digital expert, no web agency, low qualified developers, low qualified sale and marketing profiles. 

As AI continues to progress, it will lead to a concentration of the market around companies that integrate AI into their operations. Salaries for highly specialized jobs will generally collapse, while jobs that require on-field skills will be in higher demand. 

Workers must adapt to these changes to survive in the job market of the future.

It is clear that the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the way we work and interact with technology. 

In recent interviews and articles, three key factors were identified by AI evangelists as being significant in understanding the impact of AI on the future of work: automation, prediction, and personalization. 

Over the next five years, AI will understand the way people work and provide insights into work preferences. It will enable individuals to anticipate trends and release them from performing repetitive and mundane tasks, allowing them to focus on more creative endeavours.

The positive aspects of AI include its ability to free employees from mundane and repetitive work. Tools such as ChatGPT offer a more natural and engaging experience than traditional search engines. However, there are concerns about the visibility and transparency of AI systems, with the majority of AI remaining opaque and difficult to understand. Additionally, AI is content with providing the correct answer, regardless of whether it is completely inaccurate or not, highlighting the need for continued human oversight. There is a growing concern that the increased use of AI in education will leave students less competent when entering the workforce. However, it is believed that AI will become a tool for students to use, in the same way that previous generations have used search engines like Google. Thus, acquiring these skills during education is not necessarily detrimental.

The future of work will be different as a result of AI, but it is not entirely clear how. Like any technological revolution, it will change the way we work and the types of jobs available. For instance, the service industry is already being divided into different roles. Some companies are using the same staff to provide service to customers and meet the needs of employees.

There are still limitations to AI, such as its inability to create from scratch, its poor performance in activities requiring common sense, and its struggle to adapt to new situations. Furthermore, AI is still unable to effectively combat misinformation, as it may not be able to recognize sarcasm or detect subtle nuances that humans can.
