Artificial intelligence is changing the world—and one of the main areas it will affect in the short-to-medium term is the workforce.
AI algorithms imitate real-world systems. The more repetitive a system is, the easier it is for AI to replace it. That’s why jobs in customer service, retail and clerical roles are regularly named as being the most at risk.
That doesn’t mean other jobs won’t be affected. The latest advances in AI have shown all kinds of creative work and white–collar professions stand to be impacted to various degrees.
However, there’s one important point that’s usually not addressed in discussions about AI’s impact on jobs. That is: where you work may be as important as what you do.
Current trends and projections suggest people in developing countries, where a higher proportion of jobs involve repetitive or manual tasks, will be the first and most affected.
