When generative AI surged into mainstream adoption across organizations worldwide, concerns about job security quickly followed. Executives at major tech companies have cautioned that the technology could eventually render many professional roles obsolete.
Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has argued that AI will replace humans in most professions, except for biologists, energy experts, and coders. He believes that these roles are too complex to be fully automated. More recently, Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman claimed white-collar jobs would vanish within the next 18 months as the technology becomes more prevalent.
