There are some things that robots just canā€™t do.

Iā€™m not a futurist or technologist but my early forays into ChatGPT have shown me itā€™s useful for originality in content creation. Iā€™ve begun to incorporate it into my video courses. Iā€™ve even used it for some tedious tasks (but with a heavy hand in the editing).Ā 

But no matter how you feel about itā€”AI is here. So which types of jobs are most at risk? Whatā€™s the best way to stay relevant?Ā 

WHICH JOBS ARE MOST AT RISK?Ā 

According to a Goldman SachsĀ study, 300 million full-time jobs around the world will be impacted by automation. They say ā€œMost jobs and industries are only partially exposed to automation and are thus more likely to be complemented rather than substituted by AI.ā€ So which are the most endangered?Ā 

Joe Apfelbaum, who teaches entrepreneurs how to use AI through hisĀ courseĀ says most at risk are jobs that use a process that can be done faster and cheaper with AI like assembling products or filing tax returns.Ā 

ā€œThere is going to be a long period of transition, where you can perform incredibly well at your job by taking advantage of these new tools before the average person does. Youā€™re using a calculator and everyone else is still working by handā€“ who do you think is going to get promoted?ā€Ā 

Paul Canetti, Professor at Columbia Business School and Founder/CEO of Skej, a new AI scheduling assistant company says, ā€œIf youā€™re a plumber, or own/manage a plumbing business, youā€™re good. AI doesnā€™t have arms and hands.ā€ Canetti says that decision-makers and people managers are also safe because AI canā€™t motivate or relate to humans or build political capitalā€“ ā€œnot any time soon anyway.ā€

Shannan Monson,Ā a founder and educator says itā€™s not all doom and gloom. ā€œWe didnā€™t stop washing our dishes just because the dishwasher was invented. We get to do it faster, easier, and with less effort.ā€
