Continuous Development of AI Brings Challenges for Google Employees

As we all know, Artificial Intelligence (AI) was rapidly adopted in 2023. Everyday users have realised that AI will impact all aspects of our lives in the future and it will disrupt the current economy and social patterns. The continuous development of AI is bringing with it many problems and challenges. In fact, the use of AI is currently being seen in every field, be it generating content, creating images, making videos, health department or any other field. Due to which dependency on it is increasing and AI is being used more. But perhaps people are ignoring the fact that its excessive use is inviting many types of losses, the biggest loss of which is loss of someone's job. Recently a similar indication has been received from Google.

Google CEO May Cut Jobs to Achieve AI

Google CEO Sundar Pichai released an internal memo on January 17, predicting that Google is going to cut jobs in 2024 to achieve Artificial Intelligence (AI). Sundar Pichai has stressed the need to simplify execution and increase efficiency as well as invest in key priorities, which may include eliminating roles from certain teams. But Google has assured that the job cuts will not be as widespread as 2023 and will not affect every team.

Let us tell you that in the year 2023 also Google has taken such action. Google's parent company Alphabet had announced a 6% cut in its global workforce in January 2023. In the same year, Alphabet had fired 182,381 employees globally in September and now this year Google is also going to do something similar. Google's goal is to increase users' access to its AI tools, so that it can position itself as the most advanced in AI. Apart from this, Google could encourage its developers to create personalised versions to provide similar features to ChatGPT.

Google's Action Raises Many Questions for the Future

Because of AI, a big company like Google is indicating to cut jobs, so just imagine what else AI can do in the future. It is also possible that like Google, many other big companies may work on developing their own AI platform and may be seen taking such action along with cutting jobs. CoinGabbar believes that cutting jobs due to AI is not a small thing, it also raises many questions in the future. The continuous growing dark side of AI can give rise to many challenges in the future, which will seem impossible to deal with.
