HeyupConecta technology is moving so fast that I feel like it’s impossible to predict the #FutureOfWorkTech in such a long timeframe.
In the shorter term, I don’t think any jobs will be replaced. What I see happening is two things at the same time:
- bosses expecting more results from the same teams or
- having smaller teams to have the same results.
So, in the next 2 or so years I expect to see unemployment in certain areas growing over time, especially for fresh graduates that aren’t yet in the job market.
At a longer, 10-year timescale, I think something else will happen. The AI bubble will burst and we’ll have another AI Winter (a period when no major developments happen).
Right now, all major AI companies are hemorrhaging money with no end in site. Yet, all of them are greatly overvalued, way more than what we saw in the dotcom bubble or the housing bubble. While most of world economy is stagnating, the AI companies valuation continues to increase like crazy (Nvidia’s valuation is higher than Germany’s GDP).
So, yeah… I think some jobs will see a decrease in job offers in the short term, but I don’t think any jobs will actually be completely lost to AI.
