Artificial Intelligence In The Workplace

Job security is one of the few things discussed before going into a major at a college and graduating and having jobs available in that field. However, what happens when we add Artificial Intelligence (Also known as AI) into the running for jobs. There are many questions within this topic like, will there be a dramatic drop or increase in the numbers employed in the workforce? What Jobs are the safest from AI? And who is benefitting more the corporations or the underprivileged? Many articles find that AI will be the downfall of human jobs in the workforce, many believe like David Autor, That AI however, will create more jobs than it destroys. But, what jobs will be the safest to go into? John T. Larabell argues that jobs demanding creativity

AI is additionally causing more students to get a college degree which inadvertently leads to a higher paying job. AI is allowing companies to drop their prices on goods in the market which causes low-income families to become more involved in the economy. AI is also helping those that are disabled by getting them two and from places. However, there are parts of this paper that can lead a discussion on another topic not related to this like how AI has helped in a specific career, like health care or teaching. And how it has increased the amount of research done. There will be no discussions about how AI has affected third world countries either economically or other issues. It will also not focus on creating a basic income eliminating poverty or how the development of AI will lead to technology taking over

This view is seen mainly by tech companies or large corporations. However, there are a few other people that aren’t in this field that see AI as important to this world. But like all things, there is always another opinion. This one claims that AI is causing more harm then befits. AI is taking jobs from the poor and creating a larger chasm between the rich and the poor. Also, that AI is inefficient because of its inability to feel or think for itself it is just an algorithm. These two opinions are what caused this argument in the first place the poor feeling that their jobs are being taken away and the other feeling like it is the cheapest and most inexpensive choice and creating new jobs that are higher paying for those people let go. The First opinion though will be the most beneficially to me while writing this paper and confronting the idea that AI is harming the workforce. The Sources I have found articles from Newsweek New America, Project Syndicate Washington Post all found on a database based on research. They focus on AI and its integration into the workforce, poverty, but also the fear of AI entering the workforce. I have an article focusing on how AI is affecting our economy From the Newsweek Magazine. I also have found a video from Ted X speech about “Will automation take away all our jobs?” Which is recently published. My sources
