According to a report by Forbes, a new generation of smart machines fueled by rapid advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics could potentially replace a large proportion of existing human jobs1. The World Economic Forum (WEF) concluded in a recent report that AI and robotics could potentially replace a large proportion of existing human jobs1.

Some of the jobs that are likely to be replaced by AI systems include telemarketing, bookkeeping clerks, compensation and benefits managers, receptionists, couriers, proofreaders, computer support specialists, market research analysts2.

It is estimated that more than 100,000 jobs in the legal sector have a high chance of being automated in the next 20 years3. Fast food cooks also face an 81% probability of having their jobs replaced by robots like Flippy, an AI-powered kitchen assistant which is already flipping burgers in a number of CaliBurger restaurants3.

AI is and will continue to replace some jobs. Workers in industries ranging from healthcare to agriculture and industrial sectors can all expect to see disruptions in hiring due to AI4. But demand for workers, especially in robotics and software engineering, are expected to rise thanks to AI4.

It is difficult to estimate how disruptive this will be socially and in terms of the economy. However, according to a report by investment bank Goldman Sachs, AI could replace the equivalent of 300 million full-time jobs5.
