Certain jobs are safer from AI because they need human creativity, empathy, and complex decision-making. These include healthcare professionals (doctors, nurses) for medical care and emotional support, creative artists (writers, musicians) for original content, educators (teachers) for personalized teaching and mentorship, social workers for handling emotions and complex situations, research scientists for designing experiments and interpreting results, legal professionals (lawyers, judges) for critical thinking and ethical judgment, skilled trades (electricians, plumbers) for hands-on expertise, HR professionals for interpersonal issues and conflict resolution, counselors and psychologists for emotional understanding, and executive leaders for strategic decision-making. These roles rely heavily on human interaction, making them less susceptible to AI replacement.

If you refer to information technology specifically, AI agents are going to replace a lot of SaaS products too at a certain point which will reduce the headcount. But, business functional knowledge is something that is very tough to be replaced and the teams developing these AI agents will be hotcake.

In recent years, there have been various theories, sometimes partially contradictory to each other, about the impact of AI development on labor markets. Some researchers on this issue advocate pessimistic theories suggesting serious threats to labor markets due to the development of AI technology and its various applications resulting in AI taking jobs away from people. On the other hand, there are researchers of this issue who claim that new technologies and solutions and applications of AI will rather generate a lot of new jobs, new professions and occupations performed by people using certain applications equipped with AI.

What do you think will be the impact of AI development on labor markets? Do you favor rather negative or positive scenarios for the labor markets that will develop in the future under the influence of the development of various applications of AI technology? In your opinion, will artificial intelligence take jobs away from people in the future, or will the development of AI, its applications, the emergence of new applications equipped with AI, more AI agents rather create new jobs, new professions and occupations performed by people?

Perhaps reading the following article will help in taking a position on this issue. I described the key issues of opportunities and threats to the development of artificial intelligence technology in my article below:

Dear Researchers, Scientists, Friends,

The presented research questions, with great timeliness and provocativeness, touch upon the fundamental issue of the future of the labor market in the face of the dynamic development of artificial intelligence, questioning previous beliefs about the resilience of creative professions to automation. The text rightly notes the evolution of opinions on this matter, indicating the potential greater susceptibility of highly creative intellectual work to advanced AI algorithms, including generative language models and image or music creation systems. However, it is worth expanding this analysis to examine what specific human competencies and traits (beyond pure creativity) may constitute a barrier to replacement by AI, such as emotional intelligence, empathy, interpersonal skills, critical thinking in complex, ambiguous situations, ethical assessment and decision-making in social contexts, as well as the ability to innovate beyond existing patterns and data. New, important research areas could include modeling future labor market scenarios taking into account different trajectories of AI development and the pace of its adoption in various sectors, analyzing the complementarity of human and artificial intelligence work and identifying professions where such collaboration can be most effective, studying the impact of AI on the demand for new types of jobs related to the design, implementation, and supervision of AI systems, and assessing the social and educational implications of the labor market transformation caused by AI and the need for worker retraining. I thank all researchers and scientists for their past contributions to this extremely important discussion and, with an open mind, invite further scientific collaboration and continuation of research on the future of work in the age of artificial intelligence.

Best regards,
