To prepare for this transformation, there is a need for \u201creskilling\u201d and \u201cupskilling\u201d so employers can ensure staff are sufficiently equipped for the work of the future. Many jobs will be made obsolete, but new jobs will emerge that require more technically skilled employees. As one commenter put it, \u201cAI will not kill jobs, but raise the bar for getting a job.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This emerging trend is something I\u2019ve already been addressing with many my clients over the past few years, and I\u2019ve written a number of blog posts looking at the impact of artificial intelligence and automation in the working world and on our careers:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/automation-happening-now\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Automation is Now<\/a> &#8211; I often bring up the subject of automation because I love technology and because I can see that it\u2019s already here. Automation doesn\u2019t have to be negative. Change can be positive &#8211; once fear has been overcome. Automation and AI are causing \u2013 and sometimes allowing \u2013 some people to change their jobs, roles, or careers now. In other cases, tasks that used to take longer are much easier because of automation, and this allows some employees to improve their efficiency (e.g., by using AI-based text editing, video production, and graphic design tools). With some planning and, for some, training or education, automation could mean exciting opportunities ahead.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Depositphotos_107246806_l-2015.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-12103\" src=\"https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Depositphotos_107246806_l-2015-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"examples of automation at work\" width=\"530\" height=\"353\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Depositphotos_107246806_l-2015-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Depositphotos_107246806_l-2015-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Depositphotos_107246806_l-2015-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Depositphotos_107246806_l-2015-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Depositphotos_107246806_l-2015-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Depositphotos_107246806_l-2015-1600x1066.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Depositphotos_107246806_l-2015.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/a>The Impact of Exponential Technologies on Careers and HR &#8211; Back in 1965, Gordon Moore predicted that computing would dramatically increase in power and decrease in relative cost at an exponential pace. Basically, \u201cMoore\u2019s Law\u201d predicts that processing power for computers doubles every two years while maintaining the same cost. We\u2019re seeing the same pattern in other fields and industries, leading to large-scale societal changes. For the people working in the industries and fields that will be directly affected by these seismic shifts, careful and strategic career planning is warranted.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/is-automation-your-newest-competition\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Automation \u2026 is it your new competition?<\/a> &#8211; We\u2019ve already seen workers in the manufacturing sector lose their well-paid jobs to machines. Technology (especially artificial intelligence and machine learning) is also starting to replace white-collar professions. It would be foolish to assume some jobs are somehow immune from this trend toward automation. It\u2019s already happening in areas we wouldn\u2019t have anticipated not too many years ago. You just have to look at the history of industrialization in the last century to confirm its existence is as rapid as it is widespread.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/relevant-despite-artificial-intelligence\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">How to stay relevant in the era of artificial intelligence<\/a> &#8211; The motivation to replace humans with efficient machines that are not vulnerable to \u2018human distractions\u2019 is clear; technology offers a huge financial gain.
