AI is coming for your job — or at least part of it.
A January study from IT services company Cognizant, which analyzed 18,000 workplace tasks, found that 93% of jobs are affected by AI to some degree. In the US, that could result in roughly $4.5 trillion of human labor shifting to AI — and it’s happening at a faster rate than expected.
Cognizant projected in 2023 that 90% of jobs would be impacted by 2032. Now, a slightly elevated level of disruption is arriving about six years ahead of schedule. The pace of exposure has surged, too. Instead of rising 2% annually, it’s now accelerating at closer to 9%, the report found, with AI’s potential impact across occupations coming in 30% higher than earlier estimates.
While there are plenty of concerning predictions about AI replacing jobs entirely, there’s also the possibility that the technology will allow many workers to spend more time on certain tasks and offload others to AI.
Given the assumption that AI is going to take at least some part of your job — if it hasn’t already — we want to know what you would be happy to pass off, and what tasks you want to keep.
