She said that AI will affect 60% jobs in developed countries and around 40% jobs in the world. While AI is expected to replace millions of jobs in sectors like coding and tutoring, it will also create up to 97 million new jobs, according to the World Economic Forum. Fears of AI replacing humans have resurfaced after OpenAI and Google unveiled new and powerful models that can boost human productivity. How can you prepare for a world where AI is taking over jobs? Palki Sharma tells you.

    The basic premise of automation is to relieve man of drudgery. So that he can enjoy the things that really matter to his being on this planet: family, society, painting, dancing singing, playing, loving, caring, sharing! How ironic that we have forgotten why we started automation in the first place 🙏
