Saw that Seedance 2.0 menace that has given nightmares to all the big-shot studios out in the market? Well, that's where AI has come in a short span of time and its scary for those in the industry. And even if we keep the creative aspects aside, AI is wreaking havoc for people in white-collar jobs, mass layoffs here, job cuts there, total chaos. But the bigger question still remains unanswered to an extent - Will AI replace white collar jobs? And if yes, then how soon? On that note, let's cut all the fluff and jump straight to the fact related to the same.
Most of the experts from the tech industry, including Microsoft AI Chief Mustafa Suleyman, are playing the same track that yes, AI is going to end White Collar Jobs. According to the statements and predictions around them, the majority of screen-based knowledge work could be automated within the next 12 to 18 months, which is somewhere around early to mid 2027, and the effect of the same will be visible by the end of 2026. Some level of impact is already visible in the industry with professions like writing, analysing, administration, call centres, and more, being affected by AI integration.
