A study by MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory assessed AI’s potential to replace human jobs, focusing on computer vision. It found AI can automate 1.6% of US worker wages, but economically replace only 23%. Customizing AI for specific tasks is costly, while language models like GPT-4 may have broader economic adoption potential. AI’s impact on jobs could be substantial but gradual.

The Impact of AI on Jobs
MIT’s research on AI’s potential to replace human jobs in computer vision (CV) suggests that although AI can automate a small percentage of tasks, cost-effective automation only accounts for a fraction of the economy.
Practical Solutions:
- Identify Automation Opportunities
- Define KPIs
- Select an AI Solution
- Implement Gradually
Comparison with Language Models
The study focuses on computer vision AI, but consider OpenAI’s GPT-4 for broader influence on US workers. Customization of AI systems for specific tasks is a significant barrier to job displacement.
