"AI Impact: Boosting Productivity or Rendering High-Skilled Jobs Obsolete?"
Nobel laureate economist Christopher Pissarides has warned that advancements in artificial intelligence could render many high-skilled STEM jobs obsolete, potentially disrupting labor markets and changing the demand for certain skill sets. While some experts believe AI will eliminate jobs that involve repetitive tasks and those with clear 'right' answers, others emphasize the importance of STEM education for adapting to future technological changes. Pissarides remains optimistic about AI's impact, suggesting that long-term opportunities will arise in fields that require communication and personal care, and that the overall effect on the job market will be positive.
