Are you worried that you can't keep up with AI? Current artificial intelligence systems can do many tasks much quicker than we can. Does this mean that machines will put us out of work?
Rather than replace our jobs, it may be more likely that AI will transform the way we work. Previous waves of mechanisation and automation did not cause lasting effects to employment rates. However, the skills valued by the economy could change. AI has affected the US job market differently in different sectors. Being adaptable and understanding how AI and humans can best work together in the industry that you work in is likely to become very important.
Humans and artificial intelligence have different strengths. AI systems are naturally best suited to tasks that are repetitive, involve data and that are very large. Humans usually perform best when skills and qualities such as leadership, empathy and judgement are required. Creative tasks could be an area where this collaboration is particularly productive. Other research shows that using ideas generated by AI, even bad ones, helps humans to come up with better ideas more quickly.
Companies need to look at their workflows and processes to see where using AI alone or in collaboration with humans can be more efficient. They can then decide how best to integrate AI into their workflow. Employees should try to learn how best to use AI to support themselves. Being able to do this effectively will help lead to career success.

AI probably won't lead to mass unemployment. Previous introductions of automation did not lead to a long-term reduction in the employment rate. People need to be able to identify the tasks that they are best suited to. Different tasks suit different approaches. AI is particularly good at routine, repetitive tasks that need to be done in the same way over and over again. Humans tend to be better at tasks that need judgement, like decision making. There is also potential for collaboration in creative tasks, where AI can help people refine their ideas.
