It’s way more than 7%
Another reason to rejoice in the fact that we are investing so much money in data centres as we face an energy crisis !

The only way AI is taking jobs is because companies too stupid to know or too indifferent to care are replacing roles with AI tools that barely work and produce a much more inferior product.
LLMs which basically all Ai systems used are based on are language models designed to give convincing answers. Statisticaly guessing the next correct word in a sentence. It can’t do or think anything. Only guess. If you ask a LMM to do some maths is guessing the answer not calculating it.
Jobs are lost because idiot managers and company directors are fooled by the convincing words spat out by LLMs.

If you’re looking to see where to move to avoid AI taking your job the ESRI included this in their report.
That is such a poorly written article.
I don’t understand, wasn’t the reason that AI was being developed was to make human lives easier? Its the same as when tractors took over farm labouring – the result is the same. The people who own the technology get richer, we need to wrap our heads around the concept of universal stipend – Musk et al, should not be allowed to make more billions because he can buy and patent the technology.
I attended conference “AI works for Ireland” in March. It was presented by Google, obviously to promote their Gemini, all was so fancy, so posh. So, there was some minister speaking on how AI is important for Irish Business, how they will push AI for more use in SME. And I was just – whaaat?!?! people are loosing jobs because pf AI! But all the audience (there was around 300 people there, business representatives, companies, etc) were applauding to him. Like, where is the logic? AI is a plastic, it shouldn’t replace a real human.
For anyone who is still stuck thinking, „AI doesn’t really work, it’s all hot air and being used to prop up investments“, I suggest you reframe your thinking on it and start looking at the newest models and using them in everyday life, especially work.
A lot of making them work is about understanding how to get the best out of them. And there’s some trial and error in that, but also there are plenty of free short videos to show you.
When the internet first became mainstream there were lots of people who believed it was short lived or limited.
AI is a development on a par with the internet. And just like it, in five years anyone who doesn’t „know how“ to use AI will find themselves falling behind like your granny who doesn’t know how to use WhatsApp.
At the end of the day it is still a tool. An automation. A new tools come with a double edged sword. They enable you to get the same work done faster. But this is because some human elements are no longer required and they lose their jobs.
On building sites up to about a century ago there were guys whose entire job was sawing wood. They were called sawyers. They took in the raw wood, produced planks and whatever else was needed, cut to size.
Then sawmills came in, and power tools. And suddenly they weren’t needed any more. Those who didn’t teach themselves how to work the machinery at the sawmill, found themselves out of a job with nowhere to go.
Don’t be the guy who finds themselves in the same position because you „don’t believe“ in AI.
It’s coming, like it or not.
Brilliant. They’re welcome to buy my redundancy from me.
AI has yet to make any money and I don’t see a way it will. Forcing people to use it who don’t want to is not a good strategy. The bubble will burst way before it’ll be a detriment to society
Well well well. I have worked in this space for donkeys years. Its not going to replace anything. Automation is definitely going to replace some jobs, but not AI, not in its current state anyway.
My company still uses windows 8, not worried
It’s an amazing coincidence that this kind of thing is being pushed (again) just before all of the big AI companies go public on the stock market.
Does anyone else remember when eircom went public years back? TV spots, interviews with experts, wild predictions of investors being able to wipe themselves with fifties. Obviously the exact opposite was the result.
Well I said the same about 3 weeks ago and was laughed at. What’s the plan here
„We have only bits and pieces of information but what we know for certain is that at some point in the early twenty-first century all of mankind was united in celebration. We marveled at our own magnificence as we gave birth to AI.“
