Last episode, we spoke a little bit about FARML, a neuronet trained on a supercomputer at the cutting edge of molecular science.

0:13.1

And it's not just science. AI is making waves in all kinds of industries, but despite the incredible results we're able to achieve,

0:22.3

when it comes to the world of work, there are a lot of misconceptions.

0:28.1

AI will take my job. AI is a robots. AI and science fiction. The fact that AI is a black

0:34.0

box. I don't understand what happens inside it. And there's lots of confusion

0:38.4

about AI and ethics. This week, we looked at AI and the future of work from job displacement

0:45.3

to educating the next generation to find out where AI can be used to change our jobs for

0:51.6

the better, how automation and algorithms are affecting employees right now,

0:57.0

and how long I've got before I get replaced by a text-to-speech program. My goodness. All that and

1:05.2

much more. I'm Michael Bird, and this is Technology Untangled.

1:29.1

A recent survey by the European Commission found that 42% of companies already use at least one form of AI, with another 20% planning to adopt it in the next two years.

1:36.6

Like many people, your first thought might be, is AI going to take my job?

1:42.0

And it's a fair question.

1:44.0

After all, technology has been making jobs

1:46.4

obsolete for centuries. And it's actually what I asked Matt Armstrong Barnes, chief technologist

1:51.0

of artificial intelligence at Hewlett-Packard Enterprise. Job displacement is happening. The job landscape

1:57.9

is changing as a result of the fourth industrial revolution.

2:02.3

Robots are a significant factor in that. Just looking at the AI piece, what we need to think about

2:08.5

is what's air-great at, classification and regression and doing things at scale. A lot of the

2:14.1

problems AI is tackling can't be done by human beings anyway.

2:18.7

Good point. The first thing to note is the separation of AI and robotics. These are actually

2:24.3

totally different fields. They do overlap in the form of artificially intelligent robots, but
