The Artificial intelligence continues to cover spaces in the world. According to a study by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), 27% of ports of work are at “high risk of automation” by AI.
Chili is among those countries.
The OECD is an organization founded in 1948, which brings together 38 states from America, Europe, Asia and Oceania. to coordinate their economic and social policies.
They are from America in addition to Chile, the United States, Canada, Mexico, Colombia and Costa Rica. However, the countries that are most exposed to risk are those of Eastern Europe.
“Although the adoption of Artificial Intelligence by companies is still relatively low”, the report notes, “rapid progress, even with generative AI like ChatGPT, falling costs, and the increasing availability of workers with AI skills suggest that OECD countries may be on the verge of an AI revolution.”
Fear among employees about the rise of Artificial Intelligence
A survey was also carried out among employees in OECD countries, on their perceptions of technology. Three out of five expressed their fear of losing their jobs in the next decade to AI.
The study, according to Reuters, It was carried out on 5,300 workers in 2,000 companies that are dedicated to manufacturing and finance. It was done before the explosive rise of technologies like ChatGPT.
“The findings show that the use of AI at work can lead to positive outcomes for workers in relation to job satisfaction, health and wages. However, there are also risks around privacy, work intensity, and bias.” adds the OECD in its research.
For the OECD, “it is vital to collect new and better data on the adoption and use of Artificial Intelligence in the workplace, including jobs that will change, be created or disappear, and how skill needs are changing.”
