Renowned AI pioneer and strategist Mark Minevich has just launched his new book Our Planet Powered By AI, which touches on this topic.
He told The U.S. Sun: « The jobs that I believe are most at risk of being replaced by AI in the coming years are cashiers, telemarketers, truck drivers, bookkeeping and accounting clerks, and radiologists. »
Minevich explained that these jobs are linked by « predictable physical or knowledge-based tasks. »
We’ve already seen a rise in self-checkouts in retail stores and AI robocalls.
Minevich continued: « Cashiers are vulnerable as companies like Amazon automate stores and leverage computer vision.
« Telemarketing is ripe for disruption through conversational AI and chatbots that can be persuasive.
« Truck driving will face major upheaval with the rise of autonomous vehicles, threatening millions of jobs globally.
« Bookkeeping and accounting roles consist of repetitive data tasks that algorithms will soon handle.
