ChatGPT creators examine the impact of AI systems on the job market
Researchers from Open AI, the company that developed the chatbot ChatGPT, examined the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in various professional groups as part of a study. For a study, experts with the support of the latest machine learning language model (GPT-4) analyzed the effects of AI systems on professions on the US job market examined.
Use of artificial intelligence will influence the everyday life of many employees
While the authors of the study expressly emphasize that the published results are not a prediction, they assume that the everyday work of a large proportion of employed persons could be influenced by AI systems. For example, about 80 percent of the US workforce could be influenced by machine learning at least 10 percent of the job. For 19 percent of employees, at least half of the work tasks would already be affected. The study does not distinguish whether the influence of the AI systems is “work-saving or work-displacing effects”.
Artificial intelligence reduces the time required to complete many work tasks
When examining individual professional groups, the researchers evaluated the respective work tasks in terms of whether the use of artificial intelligence would lead to a significant reduction in the time required to complete a large part of the work tasks. Professional groups for which this applies to a high degree are mathematicians, tax clerks, financial analysts, writers and authors, and web designers.
While the above list does not claim to be complete and should be considered as examples, the use of artificial intelligence in these professional groups does not necessarily have to go hand in hand with the complete elimination of human work. According to the study, however, the everyday work of many professional groups will change and also offer new opportunities if AI systems are used across the board in these areas.
