Yann LeCun, an authority in artificial intelligence, announces that AI only poses a serious threat to "poor writers, cheating students, lazy professors, and journalists who reproduce press releases." He emphasizes that "more human, creative, and authentic storytelling, which is the essence of every significant work, does not need to fear artificial intelligence."
AI will likely replace many tasks that are repetitive and rule-based, such as data entry, customer service, and financial analysis. Professions requiring creativity, social intelligence, and complex decision-making are less likely to be automated soon. These include teachers, lawyers, therapists, artists, and athletes.
The transition to an AI-oriented economy will be gradual and uneven, with some industries and professions being affected more than others.
It is important to focus on the potential benefits of AI, such as increased efficiency and reduced costs, while simultaneously addressing issues such as job loss and growing inequality. Governments and businesses must invest in education and training to help workers adapt to changing job market demands.
AI does not threaten human creativity but rather serves as a tool that can be used to enrich and expand it.
