If you follow technology, you’ve probably noticed how artificial intelligence is being integrated into everything. Many are concerned that this will lead to job cuts. A recent interview with Bill Gates drew attention due to his predictions of work.
On The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Gates stated that AI will replace humans in most fields. "There will be some things we reserve for ourselves. But in terms of making things and moving things and growing food, over time those will be basically solved problems," he said.
Gates noted that there are at least three professions in which AI will not be able to replace humans.
Despite statements from some tech leaders that programming will soon become an AI-driven field, Gates holds a different opinion. According to him, developers will still be needed to understand the internal logic of AI, check if it works correctly, and whether it acts like "crazy stupid."
"It's kind of like saying, should you learn to multiply, just because computers are really good at it," said Gates.
He added that programmers will be indispensable for detecting and fixing errors, improving algorithms, and further developing AI.
Gates also claims that despite the success of AI in disease diagnosis and DNA analysis, biologists will remain essential experts in scientific research.
The third industry, according to the billionaire, is energy. He believes that this field is too complex for full automation, so energy experts will still be in demand.
Gates also believes that thanks to AI, expert medical consultations and educational resources will become more accessible and affordable.
