These days, what we hear most often is that AI will replace many jobs and could create chaos.
But perhaps if we compare it to when personal computers first started being used, we'll see the same impact. And that didn't cause chaos, nor did it lead to an economic collapse or a massive number of layoffs.
Some points to compare:
- When personal computers first emerged, they began to be used for a wide variety of tasks and functions, in offices, at home, in college, in a wide variety of professions.
The same is happening with AI, which is being used in the same way.
- The personal computer was and is just a tool; it wasn't, on its own, something that caused a huge disruption in how things are done; it only accelerated processes.
If we compare it to AI, it is also a tool that reduces the time spent completing a given task or service.
- Just like in the early days of personal computers, many people were against them because they were used to the old processes, for example, those who used typewriters or did calculations manually before using spreadsheets.
The same thing happens with AI; a large part of the population is against it because of the fear and anxiety generated by changing old processes.
Currently, almost everyone has personal computers at home and has had to learn how to use them; the same should happen with AI. Everyone will have to learn how to use it and will use it in their daily routine.
