Is AI going to replace your job?

from Somewhere on Earth: The Global Tech Podcast

Is AI going to replace your job? Is artificial intelligence a threat to your employment? If your profession involves machine learning or chatbot development, the outlook appears promising but for translators and some writing roles it’s not.  Those are the findings of a study recently published in the Journal of Economic Behaviour and Organisation.  Researchers analysed over three million job postings from a global freelancing platform since 2019. They identified which skills are being replaced, complemented, or remain unaffected by AI. Two of the authors, Dr. Fabian Braesemann from the Oxford Internet Institute, and Dr. Ole Tuetloff from the Copenhagen Centre for Social Data Science join Gareth and Ania on the show. The World’s First Inclusive Digital MapJez Donaldson continues his search for the very best tech for good stories from the Consumer Electronics Show.  This week he meets Brandon Biggs, CEO and Co-founder of XR Navigation (Audiom) inclusive map viewer.  Using enhanced visual tech, audio and text it makes maps accessible to blind people, as well as those with other disabilities.The programme is presented by Gareth Mitchell and the studio expert is Ania Lichtarowicz.More on this week's stories:Winners and Losers of Generative AIXR NavigationProduction Manager: Liz TuohyEditor: Ania LichtarowiczFor the PodExtra version of the show please subscribe via this link:https://somewhere-on-earth-the-global-tech-podcast-the-podextra-edition.pod.fan/Follow us on all the socials:Join our Facebook groupInstagram BlueSky If you like Somewhere on Earth, please rate and review it on Apple Podcasts or Spotify Contact us by email: [email protected] us a voice note: via WhatsApp: +44 7486 329 484Find a Story + Make it News = Change the WorldLearn more about your ad choices.
