Everyone, at some point, has probably thought about the problem artificial intelligence(AI) may represent in the future when the rate of unemployment is rising at an alarming speed thanks to robots that do a much better job than any human ever did but the question is : how, when, and where will the impact of artificial intelligence hit hardest?!
Perhaps another way to answer the question is with another question. Did electronic calculators, and subsequently computers, replace mathematicians, accountants, statisticians, and engineers? No. Just made them that much more productive.
AI will most likely replace some of the more menial tasks that doctors and engineers need to do, freeing them up to accomplish a lot of things unimaginable today.
It's like everything else having to do with technology. People always fret that their jobs are at risk, but they don't bother to look back and see how far we've come already. Look at the time and effort, and frustration, we had to endure before the so-called "digital era," just to get our work out the door. If you've worked for a few decades, and have kept records, just see how lengthy and primitive everything was. Just imagine what it was like, when facsimile was the only way to send a document electronically.
What if AI could write large chunks of code, in seconds, based only on a list of requirements? What if AI could perform surgical operations on a patient, that are far beyond the mechanical skills of even the best surgeons? This is not bad. It's all good. It might be just what it takes, to give mankind the tools it needs to solve problems that seem intractable today.
For the foreseeable future AI may not be threat to highly specialized Physicians or expert Scientists/Engineers. For example we are still struggling to have a fully autonomous car which is perfectly safe everywhere . It is highly unlikely in near future there will be a perfectly autonomous vehicle which is within the buying capacity of common man and can negotiate un marked lanes ,by lanes in the least developed places !!
Perhaps another way to answer the question is with another question. Did electronic calculators, and subsequently computers, replace mathematicians, accountants, statisticians, and engineers? No. Just made them that much more productive.
It is not, as you see whenever new technology solved our prominent problem then the other problems will became prominent. The problem's dimension will go to next level and more challenging.
The machines are invented to aid the humans to live better. They are supportive such they can take over many tasks that are time and effort consuming and make the people more productive.
My opinion is that one makes the inventions to amplify and multiply his capabilities. The humans ultimately are not able to invent machines that completely substitute themselves.
The machines will be always has the role to support the humans and take over the hard tasks from them.
Best wishes
While there is a likelihood of some processes being eliminated and taken over by robots and expert systems there shall never be 100% replacement of all professionals in any field.
The intelligent systems are designed and coded to support doctors and engineers. Engineers will always be on ground to manipulate Robots.
Nothing can totally replaced doctors and engineers. I agree that some of their task can be automatize but it can not totally replace.
My opinion AI may be promoted in closed loop as super brain of machinery is threat to human race. The basic purpose of 'Technology' is reducing 'Human Actions' not eliminating 'Human Actions'
Definitely the AI will be an aid to human efforts .But it is inevitable certain occupations like we now know (like cab drivers,chauffeurs,old style typists etc) will be drastically reduced if not entirely eliminated. Also special care should be taken so that robots don't turn 'rouge' !!
The AI will be a supporting device but not a replacement medium. The intelligent will promote productivity and service delivery
How many robots does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Three - one to hold the bulb and two to turn the ladder!
We are barely walking in the development of A.I. so the world is safe from The Terminator for a little while longer.
If A.I.'s are put to propper use they would reduce the time it takes for, lets say, an engineer and doctor to do their job. Lets use Tony Starks JARVIS for instance. Hes an engineer but he doesnt let JARVIS take over his job. His A.I. manages all the menial work for him so he can do more important things. Even if you resort to using less complex A.I.s to run algorithms for you rather than you spending precious time crunching numbers then an A.I. would only be able to take over half your job. Now if you spent your engineering college degree on something like working in an industrial factory, then yes an A.I will eventually take over your job, life, wife, and kids....
No, not possible, as thinking and understanding is not developed, for further development or research of subjects, and for instant practical solutions and trouble shooting, though it has reduced the work of Dr.&Er. tremendously👍👍👍
For the basic tasks as analysis of the tests etc - yes. Everything what may be described as an algorithm will be replaced.
In my opinion, doctors in the field of certain specialties and GPs will be replaced by artificial intelligence. Regarding engineers, this will depend on the specific technical specialty.
I Hope so
At least we can ensure that we have job ethics and standarized perfirmance out of human beings effects
In my opinion, doctors in the field of certain specialties and GPs will be replaced by artificial intelligence. Regarding engineers, this will depend on the specific technical specialty.
I invite you to the discussion.
It is not possible to replace doctors with artificial intelligence, but artificial intelligence can be used under the supervision and leadership of doctors.
If doctors and engineers are not needed then managers and directors of the board won't be needed either, neither will senators nor judges.
Boom and bust is built into the economy and operating for more than 400 years. When I hear of a boom, then I wonder what the bust will be like.
I don't think so.

I think AI can affect people like industrial workers etc. Engineers are the ones who develop AI systems so they can't be replaced, in fact there will be more engineers racing for a better or smarter AI technique to use. About doctors, those diagnosis machines needs guidance, you have to code what you need the machine to do first, so they have to develop those skills.
Not completely and in the near future; however, there is a slim chance.
In my opinion, intelligent systems are designed in order to support human efforts and AI makes the machine to work and think like human's brain.
It is already happening. The reality is already with us.
Will doctors and engineers be replaced by artificial intelligence?
I do not think so. Human Brain was created by the MOST PERFECT MOST STRONG MOST POWERFUL ALLAH. Artificial intelligence was invented by man who can never create a brain similar to Human Brain.
Yes, low level and not extreme combinatorics medical diagnoses may be done via an algorithm. There exists also a relevant platform in internet with remarkable success rate.
But no for highly complex cases, then human action will be necessary.
As for the engineers, then robotics already has taken the monotonously repeated actions (car industry, packaging - see Amazon!), but the design of again complex devices will need human intervention.
In general:
- low level and monotonously repeating processes will be done by robots and AI
- high level actions will need humans...
Thank you Dr. O.D.Sam, Demetris Christopoulos, Saif Hosam, Catia Cillóniz and other great researchers. Artificial intelligence is very useful in medical and engineering field...
yes it will be possible in future world.but human thinking will be great role in that research
For engineers yes can but for doctors, I think this needs time to replace
AI can only do things, that men have already done previously, in a much more precise and fast way. But the AI can not imagine, design and implement things that have not already been done by men. AI perhaps may write a history treatise on the basis of existing historical documents but will hardly write a geopolitical strategy treaty to be implemented and will never write a treatise on philosophy. Therefore, all those who think and works with their own head have no reason to worry about losing their jobs.
In my opinion although AI is a dream and could be reached but this will never be with drawbacks that will create many problems to the Science.
“AI is has been used to generate and evaluate engineering ideas”
But who had the idea? Man or AI? No one has doubts about the fact that AI is very useful. So I am willing to believe that AI have a own fantasy, imagination and intelligence only after the AI will painting a masterpiece like Picasso's Guernica to communicate to the world the horror of war.
Please, can you cite an original idea conceived by the AI that we humans can easily understand?
From the answers, it is not evident that AI is conscious of itself, ie, it does not have its own thought. In fact, no quote was made of one "original idea conceived by the AI" for the simple fact that AI does not have its own ideas, that is, does not think. Picasso painted Guernica in about two months to express a concept: the horror of war. The AI can certainly copy the Guernica painting in five minutes but does not know (it has no conscience) of the concept (of the philosophy, of the message) that the picture expresses. Therefore I beg all of never again using the term "intelligence" referring to a machine that however complex and powerful machine is and machine will always remain. Think well about it and you will convince yourself that all the machines were and will be always very stupid.

Thank you so much Dr. Aleš Kralj.
I appreciate your useful comments.

As Ales mentioned the efficiency of Silicone or any other semiconductor technology known to man currently is not even a remote match for human brain as it stands now or in foreseeable future. So in that respect itself the robots can't be match for humans.
I fully agree with Aleš, although in the US and in Italy we have robots not only with AI but also with human thought since of the 1980. :)

Hi Soroush Majd,

All events of the universe is controlled by the global destiny. Our individual destiny is linked to this global destiny. This destiny is written in the memory of the universe permanently. Any high level yogi can read this memory and tell us anything you want to know about the past, present, and future. Every soul of every individual reads that memory and performs its activities. AI will never be able to read that memory, and therefore cannot replace any human.
Here are some examples of destiny events: (1) 500 years back Nostradamus predicted fairly accurately the birth of Hitler. (2) 2000 years back Bible predicted the creation of Israel. (3) Cheiro predicted that Mark Twain, who was bankrupt then, will become rich on his 68th year. Mark Twain later wrote in his book how it happened. (4) A high level yogi visits a family and said – you will give birth to a baby boy, 18 months from now, who will have a hole in his right ear. This boy later became Swami Rama.
For more examples and details take a look at the yogic power chapter and also the destiny chapter in the free book on soul theory at the blog site https://theoryofsouls.wordpress.com/
We don't know what will happen in the future. However, we would assume that AI will play very important role in our lives. I hope that HI (Human Intelligence) will control AI, not vice versa.
Dear colleagues, as I have already said, nobody doubts the abilities of robots equipped with the so-called AI, they are very useful and should certainly be used more and more. I'm not even worried that people lose their jobs because they're replaced by robots. People can devote themselves to doing many other things that robots do not know and will never do, in fact people can create, robots do not. I have already said in other discussions that robots should be taxed in such a way as to pay the salaries and pensions to the workers they have replaced. What worries me is "talking" with a robot, that is, having social and cultural relations with a robot. In Turin a few months ago the first brothel in Italy was opened with prostitutes robots men and woman (the first ever I think it was opened in the US). Furthermore, it is expected that within the next 30 years most people will have sex with robots well endowed... of AI. Please forgives me if, despite the earnestness of the question and the argument, I will repeat my opinion in a slightly joking way but I hope to explain fine my thinking. From some years I have: a house equipped with AI, that is, managed by a computer; a kitchen equipped with AI that knows, and perfectly realizes all the recipes of the world, but unfortunately, cannot conceive the idea of inventing a new one recipe; two intelligent robots of Catholic religion, a maid for me and a waiter for my wife. Every morning at 6 o'clock the kitchen prepares coffee, then calls the waitress and orders her to bring me coffee in bed. The waitress opens the window wakes me up and gives me the coffee with a 128-tooth smile (which I guarantee, is much better than a human smile that at most can be of 32 teeth). In addition, my robots help me in all the housework and gardening, for example they helped me a lot in the construction of the garden wall. I leave a lot of free time for my robots, they absolutely need to recharge their batteries and prevent stress. Moreover, my robots every day follow some religious services on television and pray for me, for my wife and for all the poor and dispossessed of the world. One day they saw on television pope Francis, who, perhaps in response to some very powerful president, said: "It is necessary to build bridges and not walls". The same day they wrote me a letter of farewell, they destroyed the wall of the garden and went to build bridges.
Stationary and mobile robots like Robotic Arms and Automatic guided vehicles (AGVs) are already performing operational tasks in industries and hospitals...
As I said earlier, it is better to replace doctors and engineers with artificial intelligence to ensure that health and professional tasks are performed professionally without mistakes and human influences
Dear Salam Jassim Hmood, thank you so much, but you must understand that engineers and scientists are strategic. They must be on ground to design, develop code and manipulate the robots in operation.
I know Modestu s Okwu but you and me must notices the other side of profession.
Thank you S Jassim . Robots and AI will be useful virtually in all field of operations... I quite agree with you. Engineers and Computer scientists will be strategically useful, especially in the area of algorithm development, design, construction testing and manipulation of robots....
Thank you so much S. Atanasijevic . I quite appreciate the useful information and link.

Dear All,
I realise that the world is driven toward the replacement. Please, find attached below:

I do not think that will happen. If it happens drs will be working with IT specialists to design more doctor or engineer robots to take care of much bigger economies that will be created by the robots. So everybody will retain their jobs
Thank you Dr. O.D. Samuel. The link is very useful.

I agree with you Mushonga. Strategist are still needed to drive operational robots. Tnks once more Dr. O. D. Samuel.
Thank you so much Dr. Nihada Ahmetovic.
I look forward to future collaboration with you.

I doubt this would ever happen. Robots cant feel and cant understand nature.
The robots will be able to present facts but they cannot able the empathy and psychological dimension of the patient-doctor relationship. Therefore, most of the people scared that the human element between doctor and patient will be lost. This in the past facts, the facts are now different. Today, emotional intelligence is part of an AI research area.
I agree with the comments cited above. This should not happen.
Thanks for this interesting question,
Kind regards,
Pr Taiar
I think that until that time only experts are needed, only expert!!. For R&D for these instruments and also for works with real world. But the number of the workers will be less means that more job less peoples with higher education.
No it can never happen. Their work can get easier with AI but they cannot be replaced by it.
I don't think it can get to that level where doctors will be replaced with robots in our present world.
I don't think That we can not replaced doctors by artificial intelligence.. but may be used to help doctors
Doctors and Engineers are tested, qualified, and licensed to operate. In practice they are held responsible for decisions they make. The AI community has never come to grips with the accountability for results. While limits are applied and some rules are given the quality and reliability of results are not controlled.
An attempt may be made, and management might like to think the people can be eliminated, until disasters occur and responsibility gets passed around to the people who sponsored it.
