The invention of ChatGPT is putting the IT industry on edge. Since the advent of AlphaGo in 2016 disrupted the world, concerns that AI will replace human labor have become a reality. 

Experts diagnose that many jobs that perform repetitive and formal tasks will likely disappear. In 2016, the Korea Employment Information Service cited professions specializing in creation as painters, sculptors, photographers, animators, and cartoonists, as less likely to replace artificial intelligence. But with the endless advances in AI in 2023, even these jobs turned out to be replaceable. Therefore, experts say that most of the labor force, except for some management and planning personnel, will be replaced by AI.

On the other hand, there are also opposing views. Professor David Auter of MIT said, "AI is only a role in assisting human roles because AI is used or played by human judgment. Therefore, we don't know what AI will be used for at the moment, and it's hard to know from which job to how much it will take away human jobs."  In contrast, he advised that in the AI era, jobs that can read and analyze machines will be in the spotlight because AI will surely replace our careers to some extent.
