At the same time that it is scary, it is magical and curious the effect that artificial intelligence (AI) has had on various people and industries. Although everyone has heard about technological advances, it was with the arrival of ChatGPT, OpenAI ‘s chatbot, that the world had a dimension of the tech level we are at; and also stopped to reflect on the future from this accelerated expansion.
Among the biggest fears for the coming years is the extinction of professions. Thinking then about the ability to carry out research and calculations of ChatGPT-4 (an updated version of ChatGPT), specialist André Cia carried out an experiment on the platform: asking the AI itself which sectors it could affect in five years.
Since the significant advance in the artificial intelligence market with the launch of ChatGPT, many discussions have arisen regarding the impact of this technology on professions. Although experts believe that AI will not completely replace human work, some occupations face the risk of being supplanted by technology.

The purpose of the test was to collect information about which professions could be replaced by artificial intelligence and estimate the time frame for this to happen. The results were released on the specialist’s Instagram and you can also check them out below!
It is worth noting that this list is not an established fact, that is, it is just an experiment to verify ChatGPT’s knowledge and research capacity on the subject. The Q&A chatbot draws on its bank of technical information as powered by its parent company, OpenAI.
It is also important to highlight that there are both specialists who point to the extinction of various professions due to the advancement of technology — among other problems, such as the misinformation caused by generative AI — as well as those who observe that a more tech world optimizes jobs and collaborates to the evolution of important sectors for society, such as medicine.
