Will Chat GPT take your job one day?Artificial intelligence is here whether we like it or not, and it might be ‘applying for your job’ as we speak. If you’re worried about ChatGPT taking your job one day, this episode of ‘The Carol Ofori Podcast’ is for you. If you have no idea what ChatGPT is, this episode is also definitely (and probably more so) for you. Carol Ofori speaks to award-winning writer, analyst, technology commentator and head of the World Wide Worx research organisation, Arthur Goldstuck about artificial intelligence, and in particular, ChatGPT.

In saying that, Goldstuck lists the different types of jobs that are at risk, but also tells us what we can do to best mitigate that risk. He says ChatGPT is coming for many of our jobs, but if we take the time to master it, we can make it work for us, instead of the other way around. Goldstuck also warns that as much as being able to do a simple Google search is a prerequisite for a job application today, being able to master ChatGPT will also very soon be an essential skill if we’re hoping to be employed.
