A Coruña, May 5 (EFE).- The vice president of Microsoft, Jason Wild, has predicted this Friday that in a few years one in four jobs will be automated and has advanced that in his company it is expected that all jobs have an artificial intelligence co-pilot.
The Palace of Congresses and Exhibitions of A Coruña hosts Ecosystems2030 since yesterday, the summit on technology and innovation that celebrates its third edition, the second in a row in A Coruña.
Wild, the husband of a Spanish woman and with ties to a country that he has defined as his favourite, has given the conference ‘How Artificial Intelligence will humanize each trip’, in which he has stressed that “Artificial Intelligence is real” and changes , from now on, “the rules of the game”, so everything will have to do “with the interactions”.
He has quoted Bill Gates, who has said that, with these changes, “companies will distinguish themselves by how well they use Artificial Intelligence” and, therefore, Microsoft’s mission is to use all the tools at its disposal “so that companies people succeed” and customers “grow”.
The vice president of Microsoft has said that “it is possible” that Artificial Intelligence will replace jobs, since “it is estimated that one in four jobs will be automated.
“What many of us don’t see is that our skills are going to improve a lot. At Microsoft, each job will have an Artificial Intelligence co-pilot ”, she has defended.
One of the examples of job substitution at the local level is, as he has located, at Inditex, where neither models nor photographic studios may be needed to expose their advances in fashion, since it is possible to create people with real appearance with Intelligence Artificial, or can even replace those in charge of creating collections.
This situation occurs because, with the latest advances, “empirical results go beyond theoretical expectations” and “an incredible level in the world of technology” has been reached that is “going to accelerate more and more”.
He has wondered, however, “what about the camaraderie part” and if the AI ”could be that colleague from high school who loves you and supports you.”
The characteristics of the ideal AI, according to him, imply that it be empathic, creative and familiar, in which there are already important advances.
“AI can help us to be more human and generate better relationships with our customers,” he summarized.
In any case, he has clarified that “it is the people who have to make the decisions” and the important thing is to reach “the mechanism that allows difficult decisions to be made” with sufficient data: “Everything is based on trust”, he has summarized .
The lesson that he has asked attendees to remember is to be “like children”, because even if they know what the axes of the work are and how to “monetize” them, they must start from a previous creative process that he has compared to a game.
“First you have to know what the precise data is to get the answer to your question,” he concluded.
