I often think about how AI will alter our work life in the future. A lot of us are curious to know what jobs will look like in the next five years to ten years. It is a big concern for everyone, no matter what work we do.
Every day, we hear that AI can now do things we thought only people could. These systems can write, check, plan, and make art. They help with customers, set up times, and make some jobs easier that people used to do. It's cool, but also a bit scary.
But here's a fun thing I found out: while AI is good at stuff it knows, it gets mixed up by new things. It’s like a smart helper that only knows old tricks.
This led me to an exciting idea. To stay in the game with AI, being an entrepreneur or innovator helps. Now, you might think, "I'm no business person," but hear me. Being an entrepreneur means finding chances, fixing problems in new ways, and making new value. While AI is able to enhance and accelerate ideas, it cannot compete with people at generating new ideas.
What if being an entrepreneur is not for you? That is okay too. Dr. Jay Richards says that while tech changes jobs, it doesn't get rid of the need for people. Jobs change and new ones pop up. Could anyone see coming a job like social media manager twenty years ago?
The point is your skills are still worth a lot, they might just be used in new ways. Maybe you're good at breaking down big ideas; you could help train AI to better help people.
Look at the entertainment world. Recent strikes by actors show worries about AI taking over creative jobs. Some firms say they'll keep choosing people over AI stuff, which asks big questions about progress and change.
Here's a thought: if AI can do some jobs better, maybe it's a chance, not a threat? Rather than holding on to old roles, we might do better working on things that really need a human touch.
I think we are at an important turning point. The objective is not to try and stop AI from progressing, rather to see how we can use it as a tool, and how we can share the work. We should welcome change, and ensure those changes are to our benefit. If certain roles are easier with AI, we glady should check those roles out.
Work in the future is not about beating machines. It’s about shining at what makes us human. Our skill to feel, make, and come up with things AI can't is what we do best. By keeping to these human parts, we can make stuff no machine can.
Change will ever be here, and we have the power to choose how we deal with it. Let's choose growth, and to belong and to see what we can do. The best ideas may be the ones we have yet to create.
