The Role of Artificial Intelligence in the Future of the Job Market
Keywords:
AI, Future Job Market, Replacement, Digital Technologies, FactoriesAbstract
In the modern digital era, the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in the job market is growing significantly, as AI has the potential to replace many professions in the future. This article examines the extent to which AI may contribute to job loss, including the replacement of factory workers by machines and cashiers by self-checkout systems. Furthermore, the article explores whether artificial intelligence can create new employment opportunities and discusses the types of professions that may emerge as a result of the digitalized world. Additionally, it analyzes whether AI will have only negative effects on future job markets and identifies professions that are unlikely to be replaced by AI. The findings suggest that artificial intelligence should not be viewed solely from a negative perspective, as it also offers numerous positive opportunities for society and employment.
