Experts predict a 50-50 chance machines could take over all our jobs within a century. But a poll of 16,000 workers has found many employees believe AI could do it already.

There's a 50% chance that artificial intelligence (AI) systems will be able to perform every single task better than their human counterparts in the next 45 years, according to researchers from Oxford and Yale University. The research also gave the same odds that AI automate all human jobs in the next 122 years as well. The research, titled When Will AI Exceed Human Performance? Evidence from AI Experts, was submitted and later revised in late May 2017. Its purpose is to help anticipate the innovation in AI and machine learning for the purpose of developing public policy.
