Eiken Speaking-Oct 19

Some people say that AI (Artificial Intelligence) will take over our jobs. 

What do you think about that? Speak your response in three sentences.

Artificial intelligence (AI) makes it possible for machines to learn from experience, adjust to new inputs, and perform human-like tasks. Most AI examples that you hear about today – from chess-playing computers to self-driving cars – rely heavily on deep learning and natural language processing (Large Language Model: LLM). Using these technologies, computers can be trained to accomplish specific tasks by processing large amounts of data and recognizing patterns in the data. Nowadays, AI is used everywhere, including businesses, government services, education, research, and the military.

I think AI will take over some of our jobs but it’ll help us do our jobs more efficiently. 

There are jobs that are being replaced by AI such as forecasting the demand and adjusting the supply accordingly. 

In the meantime, it’ll save time, resources, and labor, which help us do our jobs faster and better.
