Is your job really at risk of being taken over by AI?

While IT companies unionize and protect themselves, opinions about the impact of AI are rather sharply divided. There are plenty who fear the coming algorithmic wave. For example, Infosys ex-CEO Vishal Sikka, when talking about AI and automation in March this year, said, "If we sit still, there is absolutely no doubt that our jobs are going to be wiped out by AI. Sixty to 70 percent over the next 10 years--or maybe less than 10 years--of the jobs that we do today are going to be replaced by AI...unless we continue to evolve ourselves."
