The study noted that these jobs could be replaced or assisted by AI.<\/p>\n<p>The most vulnerable jobs include budget analysts, tax preparers and web developers. Jobs in the medium impact range include CEOs, veterinarians and interior designers. Jobs in the lower impact range include hairdressers, childcare workers and firefighters.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the varying degrees of impact, officials at all levels say they have been working to protect jobs. The California Legislature will vote on proposals in the next session. Assemblyman Ashish Kalla said, \"We're looking at a lot of different areas, including the use of artificial intelligence in the hiring process and the impact of artificial intelligence on replacing workers. These are all issues that we will be focusing on in the coming years.\"<\/p>\n<p>In an effort to address these issues, legislation similar to the SAG-AFTRA strike has been proposed. The bill would require studios to comply with a number of requirements when using AI to replicate an actor's image. Kalla is the sponsor of the bill.<\/p>\n<p>He said:- \"The industry is arguably at the forefront of this and we are very aware of that. It's very obvious, but some of the impacts of AI are not so obvious. So if we can't make progress in industries that are generally known to the public, it's going to be very difficult to make progress in office environments, warehouse environments, or even fast food or grocery store environments.\"<\/p>\n<p>As officials continue to address these issues, some tech experts, such as Banafa, are encouraging employees to consider embracing AI to improve their work. He said:- \"Don't just avoid it and think it's you or me, we can't co-exist. The future is actually AI and humans working together.\"<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About half of California voters are worried that artificial intelligence will put them out of work, according to a new Politico\/Morning Consult poll.
