San Francisco: OpenAI, the company that developed artificial intelligence-powered chatbot ChatGPT, has released a list of jobs that could be affected by the latest technology. Unsurprisingly writers and analysts made the list.
CEO of OpenAI Sam Altman said he was "a little bit scared" of the invention. Now, a new study by the company found that jobs that are most at risk due to ChatGPT are Mathematicians, tax Preparers, financial quantitative analysts, writers and authors, web and digital interface designers, court reporters, simultaneous captioners, proofreaders, copy markers, accountants, auditors, news analysts, journalists, and administrative assistants.
"The reason to develop AI at all, in terms of impact on our lives and improving our lives and upside, this will be the greatest technology humanity has yet developed," said the CEO. He added that "people should be happy" that the company was "a little bit scared" of the potential of AI, reported ABC news.
People with professional degrees and higher incomes are more at risk of losing jobs to AI. Sectors like finance, education, journalism, engineering, and graphic design are facing a greater threat, reported Metro. Jobs reliant on scientific and critical thinking skills are less prone to automation. On the other hand, jobs that need expertise in programming and writing are more susceptible to automation, said the study.
The study titled "GPTs are GPTs: An Early Look at the Labor Market Impact Potential of Large Language Models" also listed professions that are safe from AI. Jobs that do not require formal educational credentials are safe from ChatGPT.
Agricultural equipment operators, athletes and sports competitors, auto mechanics, cement masons, cooks, cafeteria attendants, bartenders, dishwashers, electrical power-line installers and repairers, carpenters, painters, plumbers, meat, poultry, and fish cutters and trimmers, slaughterers and meat packers, and stonemasons are on the safe side.
According to OpenAI, the latest version of the chatbot is "more creative and collaborative than ever before" and would "solve difficult problems with greater accuracy" than its earlier versions.
