AI will create new
content
• Brands like USA Today, CBS and
Hearst are already using AI
technology to generate content.
• Wibbitz offers a software-as-a-
service (SaaS) platform that allows
publishers to turn written content
into video content through AI
video production.
Content Creation and Journalists

13. 12
CHEFS
• Chef Watson, it’s able to generate entirely
new recipes from scratch using an
astonishing knowledge of taste chemistry
and flavor pairings.
• Customize to the taste of individuals
• robots like Miso Robotics’ burger-
preparing Flippy are capable of preparing
meals and serving them up at speeds that
human chefs struggle to achieve
• Add table delivery drones into the mix
and you don’t even need human waiters
to deliver the food to customers.

14. 13
LAWYERS
• Can AI assist Lawyers?
• AI could be effectively deployed to determine every case in which a
particular witness testified, what his/her opinions were, and how juries
reacted, much faster and more thoroughly than any human investigator
ever could.

15. 14
FINANCIAL ANALYSTS,
ACCOUNTANTS & BANKERS
• AI can spot patterns and make trades
faster than even the most eagle-eyed of
human analysts.
• With billions of dollars (or more) at stake,
it’s no wonder that machine learning tools
are all the rage, while some estimates
suggest that around 30 percent of banking
sector jobs will be lost to A.I. within the
next decade.

16. 15
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS OR
OTHER MANUAL LABOUR JOBS
• bricklaying on construction
sites, working in warehouses, or picking
fruit and vegetables on a farm, there’s
no doubt that a large number of manual
labor jobs that once required humans
can now be carried out by robots.
• Ability to work nonstop without getting
tired.

17. 16
AI will fight
challenging
diseases
• AI and peer-to-peer
network of computers
could have the capability of
solving some of the world's
most challenging health
problems by collecting and
analyzing human molecular
data.
• Machine-learning
technology seeks to identify
and analyze illnesses to
enable new drugs,
treatments and cures at a
fraction of the time and
cost.
Machines to help in Medical treatments

IBM Watson
Watson was created as a question answering (QA) computing system
that IBM built to apply advanced natural language processing, information
retrieval, knowledge representation, automated reasoning, and machine learning
technologies to the field of open domain question answering

20. 19
AI will aid knowledge
workers
• AI technology also has the
ability to aid employees,
especially those in
knowledge work.
• Tools like Gong, Chorus and
Jog are able to record calls
made by sales and
customer service
representatives. This
technology can coach
customer service workers to
speak more effectively.
• AI to increasingly support
white-collar workers.
Humans will need to work with Machines

26. New Digital Divide:
Human vs Machine
• Machines (AI and ML) will challenge
humans
• Machines will make decisions –
sometime better decision than
humans
• Don’t compete with Machines
