Social Responsibility as a Business Model

Interaction between Artificial Intelligence and the Human Component in the Job Market
Ricardo Marfim dos Santos
CEO, Tecnovia Angola
The proliferation of
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has triggered a significant amount of change in
the job market, radically transforming the way humans interact with machines
and with each other.
With its capacity for learning and automation, AI can guarantee unprecedented efficiency and productivity. In various sectors, it can perform repetitive and predictable tasks, freeing up humans for more complex and creative activities. However, this paradigm shift raises fears about the replacement of people by machines, raising questions about the future of the workforce.
Despite advances in AI, humans continue (still) to play a key role in the job market. The capacity for critical thinking, empathy and human creativity remain irreplaceable. Rather than competing, AI and humans have the potential to collaborate, creating a unique synergy. For example, in medicine, AI can assist doctors in diagnosis and treatment, but it is human intuition and emotion that offer comfort to patients.
The effective integration of AI requires humans to continuously adapt and learn. Resistance to change, fear of the unknown and ethical issues may create barriers to AI being accepted. It is therefore crucial that governments and companies adopt policies and strategies that ensure a fair and inclusive transition to an AI-driven economy. The harmony between the two offers endless opportunities. Human creativity combined with the precision of AI can galvanise innovation and solve complex problems that once seemed insurmountable.
So, to make the most of this synergy, it is vital that we invest in training that is able to empower and adapt workers to the new era of AI. The harmonious interaction between AI and humans in the job market represents an exciting and challenging journey. As we explore new technological frontiers, it is crucial for us to remain focused on promoting civilisational progress. With vision, collaboration and understanding, we can boost the potential of this interaction to almost unimaginable heights.
