Science & TechnologyMicrosoft AI Chief Says White-Collar Jobs Will Be Automated Within 18 Months
Microsoft AI head Mustafa Suleyman says most white-collar work done at computers will be fully automated by AI within 18 months.
Mustafa Suleyman, head of Microsoft's artificial intelligence department, stated that artificial intelligence will soon do many jobs.
He said that the work of lawyers, accountants, and marketing personnel can all be done by artificial intelligence.
He believes this will happen within 18 months.
Suleyman's goal is for Microsoft to have its own artificial intelligence model, not just rely on OpenAI's products.
However, many experts say that currently artificial intelligence still has not had very large impacts in many professional jobs.
Microsoft is also using artificial intelligence in many companies to reduce the number of employees.
