Artificial intelligence is not taking over your job--it's enhancing it

Mention artificial intelligence to a management executive and you may encounter some skepticism. New technologies need to be proven effective before managers and company leaders are comfortable using them. Bring up AI to workforce personnel and their eyes may either glaze over or betray a level of fear or anger at the idea of robots taking their jobs away. The concerns regarding AI are understandable. The McKinsey Global Institute forecasts that 39 million jobs will be displaced by automation by 2030.[2] The problem is that management, workforce personnel and some media outlets often conflate AI with what they view as job-killing automation. Automation refers to machines that mimic repeatable human actions.
