Researchers from OpenAI, Open Research, and the University of Pennsylvania have conducted a study on the consequences of ChatGPT on employment.
The question of whether machines will replace us is not new. It has been raised since the industrial revolution by philosophers like David Ricardo and Karl Marx. With the emergence of tools using artificial intelligence that have accumulated over the past few months, the question is gradually returning to the forefront. Researchers from OpenAI, Open Research, and the University of Pennsylvania have looked into the issue and produced a study on the possible impacts of generative AI on jobs. Let’s take stock!
80% of Jobs Will Be Impacted by ChatGPT
For their study, researchers studied over 1,000 professions in the United States. Each job was then divided into several tasks.
The study shows that 80% of jobs will see at least 10% of their tasks transformed by artificial intelligence. For 19% of jobs, the number of impacted tasks rises to 50%. The analysis was carried out based on the latest model launched by OpenAI: GPT-4. Upon its launch, the company emphasized the leap forward that this latest artificial intelligence model represented, particularly in comparison to human abilities.
For example, it passed the exam to become a lawyer with a score as good as the top 10%. GPT 3.5, the previous iteration, ranked in the lowest 10th percentile in terms of performance.
