AI and unemployment Why AI Will Replace Some Jobs  Computers are Less Error-prone Than Humans As humans, it’s in our nature to make mistakes. Computers, on the other hand, are not susceptible to human error. They receive a set of instructions and execute them exactly as spelled out in the code. This is extremely important for jobs like data entry, where a typing error could result in chaos. In all likelihood, AI will take over jobs that require copying, pasting, transcribing and typing. At the very least, a new AI co-worker might be there checking your work. AI Doesn’t Get Bored or Tired Lack of rest, personal stress, boredom from repetitive tasks, even “hanger” are all particularly human problems (when compared with machines).  For instance, staying up all night impacts your work performance the next day. According to sleepfoundation.org, a lack of sleep is prone to cause lack of focus, decreased reaction times, irritability and errors. On the other hand, computers never need...
