However, when advancement in communications technology took place, whereby people could call one another directly, without going via the Exchangers, people said, this is going to eliminate jobs but guess what? More employment opportunities were created.
Furthermore, when the copper telephoning took place after analogy telephoning, whereby the only way to communicate was copper to your house, no GSM were invented at that era. However, when Global System for Mobile (GSM) communication technology took place, people said what’s going to happen to employees who were working in the copper telephone companies?
Are mobile phones not going to take their jobs? But guess what, No, the jobs were only increased because with the new communication technology came fibre optics and new people were involved. However, mobile phone is rivaling with computing age e.g communication via social media platforms just to be used as a means to connect people via voice, text, video, and audio which have created jobs for more people to work and build applications for users.

New Jobs created by AI
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is creating new jobs opportunities in various fields for people to work. For example, AI has created job position called Prompt Engineering or In-context learning, whereby new sets of engineers uses AI language model to combines elements of logic, refining, probing, coding, art & crafting, priming, and in some cases, special modifiers.
Another employment opportunities created by Artificial intelligence (AI) includes Jobs in the field of Annotations and Labelling of Data, Analytics and Managing Big Data, Running and Building Algorithms, among others. Hence, always have it in your mind that acquiring new skills is required to become a professional of AI’s employment fields.
