Recently, Musk was a guest on the Joe Rogan podcast and had an in-depth conversation that lasted three hours. During the interview,He made a prediction about the future of employment-all jobs processed in front of computers will soon be replaced by AI.Musk said that AI will take away all digital jobs like lightning, just like digital computers replaced manual calculations.
final,Artificial intelligence can drastically increase the productivity of people who do things with their hands, like welding, electrical work, plumbing, anything that involves "moving atoms" like cooking, farming, actual physical labor, and those jobs will be around much longer.
But any "digital" work, such as sitting in front of a computer to process emails and write reports, AI will take over as quickly as lightning.
In addition, the mobile phone will no longer be a terminal running an operating system and installing apps, but an edge node device that plays screen and audio.
Applications will disappear completely, and all interactions will be generated, predicted, and completed by AI in real time. Almost all the music and videos that users see and hear are generated by AI.
It is worth mentioning thatMicrosoft previously released a report on the "Impact of Generative AI on Occupations" stating that white-collar workers are much more affected than blue-collar workers because their work content highly overlaps with AI, and further listed the top 10 occupations that are least likely to be affected by AI:
1. Phlebotomist
2. Nursing Assistant
3. Dangerous goods removal workers
4. Painters, plasterers,
5. Embalmer,
6. Factory system operator
7. Oral and maxillofacial surgeon
8. Auto glass installation and maintenance personnel
9. Ship engineer
10. Tire repairman
Ravin Jesuthasan, an expert in the field of future work, pointed out that AI has profoundly changed the value of white-collar jobs, and many skills that originally had high added value are rapidly depreciating.
He also observed that blue-collar jobs have undergone significant transformation in recent years. Due to the improvement of technical thresholds, many positions have not only become better paid, but also more attractive. Jobs that were considered hard and tiring in the past may now become stable and promising "golden careers."
