Will chatgpt really destroy the job market?

[Fuso.hp]

Since ChatGPT was launched in November last year, this AI technology has created a huge response across the globe.  This technology has gained so much popularity that people are using this technology in almost every field. Any math can be easily solved through this technology, any unknown matter can be easily known through this technology, so there is a lot of doubt in everyone's mind about this technology that this technology will destroy the job market or not? 

When asked about this, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said the technology will never destroy the job market. Rather, this technology will solve things that people never know about.  Since all tasks can be solved easily through this technology, this bot system may be used instead of humans in various work fields. 
If this technology is used in the workplace, many people will lose their jobs.

If anyone thinks so maybe it's just opinions. indeed what has been created is basically for the convenience of us working too. Our real task here and should be to appreciate what the OpenAI Team has tried to create this technology for mankind and use it wisely. I am sure that if there is a gap in terms of operations there will be further development from them.

No one needs a soothsayer to know that AI generally has its good part and also has its disadvantageous part and will surely deprive people of jobs if care is not taken. With the world's population increasing daily, it's paramount to know that more jobs would be needed daily and the effect would be more pronounced if AI is allowed to do too much of human jobs. The effect might however at times be unnoticed just like the way ATM machines took over the work of many people unnoticed. But if carelessly implemented/allowed, it would really be a threat to the labour market.

Nonetheless, I believe that AIs are still in their initial stages, and as people/countries clamour for developments and do not want to take the backbeat in this, they would still leave them to practically ascertain these effects (good or bad). It's after then that I believe regulators would allow some, and clamp down on many for the betterment of all.

If we keep in mind that technology is developing rapidly and in just 10-20 years we had a dramatic improvement in every aspect, then yes, we can say that an AI technology (not ChatGPT alone) can destroy the job market. But here is the thing, absolutely every innovation that improves our quality of life and makes things easier, always destroys certain job market but there are always space for these people to move on different one.
Btw it will be a long journey, people will have to be more educated because manual unskilled labor will no longer be able to do basic work and if they don't move into a skilled labor category, they'll suffer. It will be a painful at start, for a while but over time I think we will achieve a state where people will rarely work and live on pension.

so there is a lot of doubt in everyone's mind about this technology that this technology will destroy the job market or not? 

I do not think ChatGPT will increase unemployment. The bot is used to get job more easier and faster. It is just like the Google assistant, Siri, Bixby or Alexa which are also AI, although ChatGPT is more. I do not see a way it can lead to unemployment than to lead to more employment becusee this AI companies too are employing workers.

But the problem are some bots that may be created that can lead to unemployment, this kind of bots will be able to handle the task that people to be employ will render. ChatGPT is somehow among but I do not think it would be to the extent that it would lead to higher employment. The kind of bot that will lead to employment are the ones that will do the work of human without the need of human, example is the bot created for the work if police, security, used in industries and companies to replace humans.

If this technology is used in the workplace, many people will lose their jobs.

I think even if it is used in a work places, it would be used by people that are employed.

If this technology is used in the workplace, many people will lose their jobs.

This is only the beginning and we have been seeing a lot of people having crazy interest in it including companies trying to cut down there expenses utilizing the use of IA in there customer care representatives since it can to programmed in a way that it could answer vast questions from there customers.

Since the launch of chatgpt, I don't think it has reach up to a year making varieties of work easier to execute. We can't day that that artificial intelligence would dominate and make someone jobless yet because the system is still being upgraded and has not gotten to the level where there would vast competition compare to what the humans' knowledge can do and execute.

If anyone thinks so maybe it's just opinions. indeed what has been created is basically for the convenience of us working too.

That could be the reason why artificial intelligence like the chatgpt and others are created, but it could move from that to another level where people can further program it to do an extraordinary work for hacking and scamming people. We might not know wthe potential and capability of artificial intelligence but that would be until some certain period when people can reconfigure the use to carry out unethical jobs.

Our real task here and should be to appreciate what the OpenAI Team has tried to create this technology for mankind and use it wisely. I am sure that if there is a gap in terms of operations there will be further development from them.

I could remember that Elon Musk had already spoke about it because that people anmrr undermining the capability of artificial intelligence calling for it regulations. It was developed for good reasons but that can be altered and use to commit crimes.

[letteredhub]

If this technology is used in the workplace, many people will lose their jobs.

I think even if it is used in a work places, it would be used by people that are employed.

I doubt if the number that would be employed to do the job through the use of an AI bot can be equated to the number of employed staff that were mainly doing the job before the involvement of AI bot.  It's like this, every businessman wants to cut down expenses in workplace and maximize profits as much as possible, so if for a task that 10 workers are assigned to execute, and it's discovered that an AI bot can perform that task just with use of 5 workers then it's obvious that the other 5 workers has just turned unemployed cause they would be layed off to cut expenses.

AI might reduce employment, but this thread is specifically about the existing ChatGPT as of today's world. But generally speaking, AI companies will increase too and more people will be employed.

Computers are created for good reasons, but most people that are exposed to cyber attack today are through the internet using devices like laptop and phone. Common knives were created for good reasons but it can be used to kill. Guns and other things are created for good reasons too. There is nothing good in life that can not be used negatively too. AI could be a threat tomorrow.

[Blowon]

there are two possibilities.
1. Chatgpt is absolutely destroying the freelance market especially designers and programmers.
2. Chatgpt helps freelancers get their work done quickly.

some business owners won't want to get tired of doing their program or design work because there are other things, now this should be handed over to freelancers who need it, but that's not all. I'm sure with chatgpt everything will be much easier, not to destroy the freelance market, but to help them work.

[fuguebtc]

There have been mixed opinions on this since Chatgpt was launched. But so far, it's all hypothetical and there hasn't been any evidence that AI will increase unemployment instead of creating more jobs. In my opinion, AI will definitely have an impact on employment and many people will be unemployed. But that will make us more developed and people will find ways to adapt to everything, maybe when AI develops more there will be many other professions and we will have more choices. After all, AI is also created by humans, we are still one level above it.

    -  If AI is used at work, there is no doubt that many will lose their jobs. Maybe the 10 employees in a company can be replaced by just one AI robot. Because the AI robot does not get tired.

That's why the only disadvantage that I see is that it has no emotion and I think it's difficult to have that in a business. So it's still different if a normal person will work in the same company. But from another angle, from what I see, AI still helps in other things in my opinion.

[Rruchi man]

Artificial intelligence will affect the job market and bring changes, but it will not destroy the Job market. It will make some professions and skills more relevant for the future and some other professions and skills outdated. As someone who is concerned for themselves, if you are in the Job Market, since Artificial intelligence has not yet fully matured, you have to be able to tell if you fall into the category that will loose their jobs to these Artificial intelligence or the category that artificial intelligence will make better.

 If your job is threatened, now is still a good time to become more relevant by improving on your skills or degree in profession so you are not served out of the job market when Artificial intelligence begin to restructure the Job market.

[KiaKia]

If various work field, that once belongs to humans, and can he please tell us where those people are going to be replaced once the AI takes over? I don't believe this crap claim because it's obvious that those humans won't be needed anymore.

Once the inflation problem begins, many companies start sending their workers home, right? Imagine if AI replaces those workers, who will benefit the most? The CEO and co isn't it? They won't have to pay salaries to AI and inflation won't affect them much compared to when they are still paying humans.

Sorry I am looking at the bigger picture, I refuse to accept.

It has been estimated that artificial intelligence will cause about 300 million full-time jobs loss. Recently IBM boss Arvind Krishna stated that the company will replace 7,800 workers with AI. Amazon, Meta, Dropbox, and Microsoft are all investing heavily in artificial intelligence technologies that will equally make them shift some job functions to bots which will reduce the human workforce. But some economists believe that AI technology will also create more jobs. Every new invention will make some workers obsolete and create more jobs for others.

Secondly, these artificial intelligence tools will have to be supervised by humans, so man is still indispensable. AI tools will be effective in carrying out routine tasks and might not be able to reason and handle issues based on specific situations or circumstances. This means humans will always be around because of their ability to reason and be emotional.

The best any worker would do is acquire skills that will help him utilize AI tools to make the job simple and effective. Every worker should learn how AI will affect and advance the job specification.

When machines were initially discovered, their innovative capabilities were divided into different parts, aiding humans in making their work more efficient and faster. Surprisingly, instead of causing job losses for humans, these machines have actually made their tasks easier. Similarly, I believe that ChatGPT will bring about similar outcomes. It will assist humanity in research and development, contributing to advancements and improvements.

Moreover, bots have been in existence for several years even prior to the introduction of this technology. Bots have played huge role in aided programmers in accomplishing complex and laborious tasks that would have otherwise been challenging for them. Hence, I have doubts regarding whether this technology will pose a roadblock for the job market.

ChatGPT could destroy the current job market, especially if ChatGPT develops even more advanced because not many workers can improve their work skills and be promoted in the company.

But if ChatGPT can be used well in many companies by working side by side with workers, I don't think it will happen because workers and ChatGPT will help each other to get the job done. But for other companies, some may lay off their workers because ChatGPT can replace their jobs.

If the workers are given the opportunity to improve their abilities, I think they will use it so they don't get laid off from their jobs. And let's just hope that the company listens to workers' demands and pays attention to them.

A similar situation was when the steam engine appeared
Everyone decided that now there will be no manual labor (which was about 99%), there will be no horse traction (which also gave 99% of all transportation). From reality - yes, only horse-drawn carts were massively replaced, because. the steam engine turned out to be just much more efficient and profitable ...
... then there was a transition to an internal combustion engine, and there was hysteria - what to do with the miners, the economy would collapse, ...
And many many times we experienced "machines will replace people"!
These are all turns of evolution and technological progress. So it was, so it is, so it will be!
Perhaps some part, and the most inefficient one, will be replaced by AI, but there will be no massive layoffs.
There is also a global deterrent: if, for example, we simulate a situation where AI, conditionally tomorrow, replaced 85% of all workers in all industries. What will happen?
COLLAPSE.
I explain why - a huge number of people will remain on the street without income, and these are CONSUMERS AND BUYERS of goods and services. The question is who will buy and consume? Without this, no economy will work! Both AI and mega technology companies will be left without markets, which will lead to their collapse. There will always be a balance and some kind of natural selection.

It will not destroy anything about the job market by any means, it is us that needed to understand the righful application of the use of ChatGPT where applicable and necessary, the development of this modern and advanced technology is not aimed at giving us discomfort or challenges the business economy but ratherake it more easier to use and handle in aspect where the use of AI is more needed or encouraged.

The technology cannot still work alone without the human efforts in controlling it, the target was to make works easy and not to take the active roles of humanbeings, job seekers are now developing their career profile with the iforma on this technology because they understand the demand now in market as part of the skills needed on that field, if some are loosing their job then many are getting theirs, life is already full of many inbalances.

Like many new technologies that are super hyped, I'm not sure this will be as successful as it is being made out to be. There are definitely certain scenarios where AI could *assist* people in getting the right answers or automating certain processes, but they will often rely on people as backup. That being said, it could put certain jobs out of business entirely, for example brokerages like insurance - they will be able to cover every scenario to find the cheapest coverage options without any person interaction, or maybe even travel agents (where they still exist) can definitely be replaced. It's hard to gauge the full impact of it at the moment because there are some many possibilities but it will run into problems too.

[davis196]

What do you mean by "the job market"? Certain professions are going to be replaced by AI, while others won't be impacted at all.
All the ghost writers, copywriters, article writers might be having a hard time competing with AI tools like Chatgpt.
The same thing applies to all web designers, photographers and artists. They can't compete with Midjourney and other image generating AI tools.
On the other hand, Chatgpt can't mow your lawn, clean your house or repair your car. Maybe in the future, the robots will become so advanced that they will do physical labor, but this will happen probably after several decades(if the human civilization survives World War III).
