How software and IT jobs are disappearing in favour of AI

AI and automation are expected to replace a substantial number of jobs, leading to a shift in job roles and skill requirements globally. The future workforce will need advanced technical skills, social and emotional skills, and higher-order cognitive skills to thrive in the evolving job market. Educational institutions must focus on promoting experiential learning and developing a curriculum that fosters creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities. Government intervention is crucial to identify and address future skill shortages through increased spending on education and proactive measures. While AI can optimize and automate tasks, human creativity, intuition, and problem-solving skills remain essential for innovation and success in the workplace. Source: https://econom...

Concerns include loss of work, devaluation of income, and fears of AI mimicking human creativity. Respondents emphasize the need for regulation to ensure consent, credit, and compensation when using generative AI. There is a call for transparency in AI usage and ethical development to protect human creativity and authorship.

Apple releases eight small AI language models aimed at on-device use

Apple introduced eight small AI language models called OpenELM that can run directly on smartphones. The models are available under the Apple Sample Code License and are currently on Hugging Face. These models are proof-of-concept research models and come in two types: pretrained and instruction-tuned. Apple's approach with OpenELM includes a layer-wise scaling strategy to improve performance and efficiency. The company also released the code for CoreNet, a library used to train OpenELM, to empower the open research community.
