Humanity has been prepared for these robotics replacing truck and taxi drivers. What we couldn’t have planned for is business operation jobs, food service jobs, production and manufacturing jobs and sales positions, “these areas will likely see significant declines in employment: 25% to 75%. These are industries where labor is a major component of the cost structure” (Waker). This bulge of industry and at least one third of the entire human workforce, both blue collar and white collar, could be cut deep by the introduction of artifical intelligence into the …show more content…
The consequence of this action could lead to automation in lower paying jobs, thus displacing millions of Americans reliant on labor and service focused jobs. The field of artificial intelligence’s goal is to better the world through technology, yet we have failed to find a reasonable solution to job replacement due to A.I.. Although the jobs in the future that will be the first to go are those requiring minimal education, those of collegiate graduate could be under fire at the rate the artifical intelligence is growing. The end result of human advancement for artifical intelligence is not looking good, the overall concensus is that humanity will soon become secondary in all functions to the intelligent systems. This means loss of jobs and dignity, and does that really warrant creating technology like artifical intelligences? Artifical intelligence systems, at the rate that they are progressing, may one day replace us in our jobs, and that is the one reason to consider delaying or even halting the process
