Within the next fifteen years, AI and automation will be

able to do virtually all basic work tasks or nearly half of our

total workload. We will now explain how you survive and
thrive in the AI Era.

How will your job be affected by AI?

In order to see if your job will be affected by AI, we must take a look at several
key factors based on what AI can easily do, and what AI cannot do.

First, we separate jobs into cognitive (white collar) and physical (blue collar), and
the questions tested for several things. If you had a cognitive job, we checked
whether your job was:

• Fixed variants of interaction based on a script (e.g., telesales).

• Relatively simple classification of data or pattern recognition, or simpler
decisions (e.g., filing)
• Repetitive in nature, and within the same narrow department (e.g.,
bookkeeping)
• Limited face-to-face interaction with people (e.g., assembler).

And if you had a physical job, we checked whether your job was:

• Based in the same or similar locations (e.g., dishwashing)

• Repetitive in nature, and based on structured environment (e.g., courier
in a hotel)
• Simple in nature and not requiring high level of dexterity or training (e.g.,
assembly line inspection)
• Limited face-to-face interaction with people (e.g., fruit picker).
We also asked questions that categorized cognitive jobs, which can be put on
two axes representing “creativity/strategy needed” and “compassion needed”:

We asked questions that categorized physical jobs, which can be put on two
axes representing “dexterity/complexity needed” and “compassion needed”:
 And the human-machine interaction is indicated below:

• Danger Zone: AI takes over

• Human Veneer: Human AI symbiosis
• Slow Creep: Human amplification with AI tools
• Safe Zone: Human prevails

A more detailed look at individual jobs

Another way to check the safety of your job, is to simply look it up in a list of 365
jobs. The jobs were assigned a technical probability that AI or other
technologies can do the job within 15 years. The probabilities do not indicate
that the job will be displaced, but just that large components of the job will be
technical automatable. Also, it is important to realize that this list is simply the
list of today, and that in the next 15 years, many new job types will be invented,
so there will be many opportunities as well.

What should I do if my job is likely to be

displaced by AI? What can AI not do?

As you can see from the above analysis, there are still many opportunities for
human & AI to work together, helping to amplify and increase human
contributions.

If your likelihood of displacement is high, there is no need to panic. It will be a

while before the massive job displacements begin to happen (technology needs
to be perfected, cost-reduced, fit into process, and your CEO, labor union, and
the government have to all approve).

But it is certainly not too soon to start thinking about safer jobs, lasting skillsets,
and getting some training. Even if your job appears safe for now, AI will continue
to improve, so should you.

To ensure your professional career is not interrupted by AI displacement, you

need to understand: What can AI not do today? These would be the types of
jobs that may be safe (at least for now) from AI displacement. There are several
main areas:
 1. Creativity (e.g., medical researcher, AI scientist, award winning script
writer, PR expert, entrepreneur). AI is not good at coming up with new
concepts.
2. Complexity / strategy (e.g., CEO, negotiation expert, merger & acquisition
expert) – jobs that combine understanding of multiple domains and
require strategic decisions. For AI, even common sense is very difficult.
3. Dexterity (e.g., oral surgeon, airplane mechanic, chiropractor). Robotics
and mechanics actually advance slower than software AI. Robots are still
very clumsy – watch a robot pick up a pencil and you’ll see what I mean.
4. Learning new, unknown, and unstructured environments (e.g., geological
survey, cleaning after conventions). Robotics work well in fixed
environments (like assembly line) and are not good with new
environments (like a different home every day).
5. Compassion / human touch (e.g., social worker, special ed teacher,
marriage counselor) – AI does not have the kind of EQ that humans have.
Nor are people willing to “trust” a machine for many tasks that require a
human touch.

Finding our place in the Era of AI

We should embrace life-long learning, because new technologies will create
new opportunities, as well as eliminate existing positions. We should have a
discipline of independent learning, including using online resources.

We should treasure our creativity, our conceptual thinking, our strategic

thinking, our dexterity, and most of all, our compassion. These are things that
AI cannot do and makes humanity shine.

We should accept that the routine jobs are going away. For young people in
these routine jobs, start now by finding careers that fit your strengths and that
are not easily replaced by AI. For older people, when early retirement is offered
to you, consider accepting, with gig economy and volunteering to make some
income and live a life you enjoy.

We should encourage more people to go into service careers, choosing jobs into
which they can pour their hearts and souls, spreading their love and experiences.

We should embrace AI tools, especially for professionals, understanding that

they will get better with more data and use. We should use these tools to do
parts of our jobs, allowing them to do more of our routine tasks, freeing us to
move into areas that are more suitable for humans.

We should enhance education with encouragement for curiosity, critical

thinking, creativity. Education should place greater importance on emotional
intelligence, including practice of communication, persuasion, and teamwork.
And children should be encouraged to follow their passion and talent.

While AI will cause job displacement, and some temporary challenges to our
society, in the long-term, AI will undoubtedly be a boon. By replacing most/all
of the routine jobs, AI will liberate us to spend time on what we love, what we
are good at, and give us much free time to think, to love, and to enjoy our lives

Dr. Kai-Fu Lee—one of the world’s most

respected experts on AI and China—reveals
that China has suddenly caught up to the US
at an astonishingly rapid and unexpected
pace.

In AI Superpowers, Kai-fu Lee argues powerfully

that because of these unprecedented
developments in AI, dramatic changes will be
happening much sooner than many of us expected.
Indeed, as the US-Sino AI competition begins to heat up, Lee urges the US and
China to both accept and to embrace the great responsibilities that come with
significant technological power. Most experts already say that AI will have a
devastating impact on blue-collar jobs. But Lee predicts that Chinese and
American AI will have a strong impact on white-collar jobs as well. Is universal
basic income the solution? In Lee’s opinion, probably not. But he provides a
clear description of which jobs will be affected and how soon, which jobs can be
enhanced with AI, and most importantly, how we can provide solutions to some
of the most profound changes in human history that are coming soon.
