It's not AI that is going to take you job, but someone who knows how to use AI might, economist says

about one day being replaced by AI, Richard Baldwin, an economist and professor at the Geneva Graduate Institute in Switzerland, says there's nothing to worry about — as long as you know how to use it. Baldwin said during a panel at the 2023 World Economic Forum's Growth Summit.AI, Baldwin said, has the potential to help workers do their jobs better. A nurse who uses a medical AI tool, for instance, would be"much more capable than they were before," he said.

"AI is essentially wisdom in a can," he said."It's giving more power to all workers, but especially those average workers." In that vein, Baldwin said he believes that AI could elevate the middle class. He equates the work of"expensive" and"talented" workers with"20 years of experience" to what AI tools like OpenAI's ChatGPT are capable of achieving overnight.

"I think it will be uplifting for the middle class, but it will be extremely disruptive in the sense that every job will change," Baldwin said.
