An Exciting Disruption- Artificial Intelligence
Mitch Free • April 21, 2023

Artificial Intelligence will cause an uncomfortable disruption - But it is really just history repeating itself

AI (Artificial Intelligence) is the buzzword of our time, and there is no doubt that it will cause disruption and job loss. However, this phenomenon has happened many times in history, and we have always managed to adapt and thrive. The industrial revolution is a perfect example of this.


The industrial revolution began in the late 18th century and lasted until the mid-19th century. It was a period of significant technological advancement that saw the transition from manual labor to machine-based manufacturing. It transformed the way we live, work, and interact with each other, and it created many new jobs while also eliminating many old ones.


The same thing is happening today with AI. As AI continues to evolve and become more advanced, it is automating many jobs that were once done by humans. This includes everything from manufacturing and warehousing to customer service and data entry. However, at the same time, AI is also creating new jobs that require new skills, such as data analysis, machine learning, and programming.


The key to surviving and thriving in this new era of AI is to embrace it and adapt. We need to accept that AI will disrupt our lives and our jobs, but we also need to recognize that it will create new opportunities for us. Just like the industrial revolution, we need to be willing to learn new skills and adapt to new technologies if we want to succeed.


This is not to say that the transition will be easy. It will be challenging, and many people will lose their jobs as a result of AI. However, history has shown us that we are resilient, and we have always managed to find a way to adapt and thrive in the face of technological disruption.


In conclusion, AI will cause disruption and job loss, but this phenomenon has happened many times in history. The key to surviving and thriving in this new era of AI is to embrace it and adapt. We need to be willing to learn new skills and adapt to new technologies if we want to succeed. With the right mindset and approach, we can turn this challenge into an opportunity and create a brighter future for ourselves and for future generations.
