In the future, which industries may be replaced by artificial intelligence?

The topic is a bit big. Let me try to answer.

The most fundamental thing of artificial intelligence is its application in real life, not just in the laboratory stage. Specific to real life, the role of artificial intelligence is to gradually penetrate and deepen, rather than completely replace it at one time.

The first industry that may be replaced is assembly line workers. The OEM industry represented by Foxconn and Compal has rapidly boosted the economy of the Yangtze River Delta. Take Kunshan as an example. At the end of 20 14, the registered population of Kunshan was 769,746, and the permanent population of Kunshan at the end of 201650,300. Foxconn, Compal, Asus and many other foundries need to rely on a large number of "cheap labor" to complete basic work such as the assembly of computers and mobile phones. Many workers' jobs may be very unskilled jobs such as labeling, packaging and assembly, which are likely to be gradually replaced with the development of artificial intelligence. According to the disclosure of Kunshan Municipal Government, last year alone, including Foxconn, 35 Taiwanese enterprises in Kunshan invested 6 1 10,000 US dollars to replace machines. (citation source: /585/5854276.html) "cheap labor" has no technical content and is naturally eliminated.

Network editing. Many internet companies, including Tencent, have begun to use robots to edit news instead of manual work. According to my observation, the news articles of robots are currently limited to the "manuscript transmission" stage, that is, the news content of unified standard mode, while artificial intelligence includes machine learning. With the "learning" function, some junk network editors may be completely replaced.

Manual customer service. In fact, manual customer service has always been the representative of "low quality". Many manual customer service in the United States are outsourced to outsourcing companies in India. The essence of manual customer service is to solve various problems for users. In fact, as long as the technology of speech recognition and question bank is complete. It is entirely possible for the machine to screen these questions and reply automatically, and the labor value is almost zero (maybe some female customer service voices are very nice and not easy to imitate).

When it comes to the real replacement problem, it is actually a question of cost. Whether it is human or artificial intelligence, which can bring lower cost to the company, of course, I am willing to use which one. In business, artificial intelligence still has a long way to go. Moreover, the technology is not so mature at present.
