The biggest question of the 21st century is: will AI replace our jobs?
The answer is directly NO. Let’s understand this: AI is a serious threat for human jobs, that’s correct, but it’s not a threat for all jobs. Basically, AI is a threat for mid-skilled level jobs. If we’re doing a job like WordPress translation, these skills are already replaced by AI. So it’s clear low-skill level jobs are already replaced by AI. Now talking about mid-skilled level jobs, these jobs are in danger. AI is developing day by day, more efficient and stronger. Soon they will replace the mid-skilled level jobs. If we take an example, suppose you have work in Excel. You want to hire an Excel worker. You will definitely not hire a beginner Excel worker because you can perform these beginner types of work with AI. Then you have two options: mid-skilled level Excel worker and an expert Excel worker. You will definitely hire an expert Excel worker, and soon mid-skilled Excel workers will also be replaced by AI. So the point is we are entering an era where low-skilled workers and mid-level skilled workers will be replaced by AI. If you have a skill and you don’t want to be replaced by AI, you have to master this skill. We can say it now: if you have a skill and master the skill, you will not be replaced by AI. AI can’t replace creative work of humans, although a new AI is developing that has human creative mind, but this is in a developing state which is called AGI (Artificial General Intelligence).
