According to an analysis by the International Monetary Fund, nearly 40 percent of all global jobs could be affected by AI, and that number could reach 60 percent in developed countries. But don’t worry. However, he 40-60% of employment will not completely disappear. Rather, it means that some of the tasks associated with these jobs are likely to be removed, streamlined, and enhanced through AI automation. That is, most of the time we are talking about: Augmentation About human work.we are talking about humans work together AI tools will not replace AI tools.
But still, with so many headlines about the transformative nature of generative AI, it’s no wonder people are worried about their jobs and worried about being left behind by this rapidly advancing technology. In this article, we explore my top tips for staying relevant in the era of generative AI.
educate yourself
My first tip is to understand generative AI. Learn what you can do. Try a tool like ChatGPT and see what it does. (If your employer doesn’t allow her to use ChatGPT or other tools at work, use it in your free time.) Give it a try. have fun. It is also very important to understand that generative AI is much more powerful than his ChatGPT, and generative AI tools can do more than just generate text. You can use generative AI to create audio, voice, music, images, and videos. Analyze data and extract insights. And you can also write computer code.
I highly recommend going on an educational journey. There are plenty of free (and paid) courses that cover the full spectrum of generative AI education, from general courses for beginners to specific courses related to specific industries. We also have technology podcasts and YouTube channels to help you stay up to date.
Assess the potential impact on work
Once you understand what generative AI can do, compare it to your own work. How will generative AI change your job? Some jobs will have more exposure than others. However, for most jobs, generative AI is unlikely to completely replace jobs. However, you may be able to take on some of the day-to-day tasks. In other words, while generative AI won’t (probably) take your job, it’s very likely that your job will change. how you are working
It is recommended to divide the job into its component tasks and core skills. Which component skills and tasks can be performed by generative AI now or in the near future? Which tasks will still require a human touch?
If your job is highly at risk from AI automation, are you likely to look for a new job in the next few years? If so, what type of job would you like to move into? How can I start preparing for the transition?
Even if your exposure is moderate or low, you might want to use generative AI to enhance your work. For example, can you tailor your work to generate routine, easily repeatable tasks that can be performed by AI, freeing up time for more complex tasks? As a result…
Position yourself as someone who can leverage generative AI in your work.
Economist Richard Baldwin, speaking at the 2023 World Economic Forum’s Growth Summit, said, “AI is not going to take your job. It’s someone using AI that will take your job.” . This means that if you don’t know how to work with AI, you’re in a much riskier position compared to someone who embraces it and knows how to use it to do their jobs more effectively. means.
So let’s think about how you can integrate generative AI into your daily work. For example, can it be used to draft emails? (Note that I said “draft”; content created by AI should always be carefully reviewed.) Can AI be used as a productivity tool? How to brainstorm ideas? How to summarize a long report into neat paragraphs?
Develop your skills in a more human-centered field
Knowing how to work effectively with AI is important.But it’s also important to position yourself within your organization in line with what AI wants. Can not do. For example, generative AI tools can write good marketing copy, but human creativity and strategic thinking are essential to planning marketing strategies.
Basically, consider how you can take on more responsibility in areas where people skills are needed now and always will be. These areas include creativity, complex decision making, strategic thinking, leadership, empathy, and interpersonal relationships. These are areas where humans continue to have an advantage over machines. These are skills that I recommend everyone develop for future workplace success.
And above all, learn to embrace change.
I get it; change is uncomfortable. However, today’s workplaces face rapid and near-continuous change. So if you’re struggling with change, now is a good time to tackle it.
By being more adaptable and flexible, you will be able to cope with change more easily. So how can you find ways to become more adaptable and flexible? For example, try learning a new skill or finding small ways to step outside your comfort zone. Participate as a volunteer in various projects at work. Or find ways to make your creativity flexible (because flexible thinking and creativity go hand in hand).
Most importantly, remember that generative AI won’t (probably) take your job. But it could improve the job.
