Not only is A.I. coming for your job, but there’s probably nothing you can do to stay ahead of the automation wave.
That’s the takeaway from a recent report from Gartner, the technology research firm, forecasting that 69% of the tasks managers currently perform will be automated within the next four years, “requiring a complete overhaul of the role of the manager.”
The same report also predicted big trouble ahead for companies’ attempts to retool and reskill their workforces to face this newly-automated future. It forecast that 47% of learning and development budgets will wind up wasted as A.I. eliminates about two-thirds of what Gartner calls “on-the-job, task-based learning opportunities.”
