/in /by

To start the new year, we have seen top organizations announce layoffs at a record pace. The ever-changing landscape of the job market is more challenging than ever. And now with AI in the mix, it’s getting even more complicated.

Losing your job due to a financial crisis or being replaced by someone who is a better fit is one thing, but losing it to AI seems pretty disappointing. But just like the changing times, you must beat your competition or offer something they don’t. So, how do you stop AI from taking your job? Here are four ways to secure your career and prevent AI from taking over.

Understand What The Future Looks Like

As they say, you must be one step ahead of your competitor. AI is built for the future, but it also has its limitations. Take a step back and understand what the future looks like for your chosen career. How will your industry look years from now?

Business Insider has reported the top jobs that AI will probably replace and the report mentions media, finance, education, and legal jobs to be at the top of the list. To help counteract that, do your research by checking how AI can be utilized in your chosen career. Instead of fearing this tool, learn how to work with it and how to leverage it for your current role.

For example, the future of the finance industry may rely on AI for daily tasks such as creating reports or invoices. Education may also use AI to enhance the learning experience. To learn more about jobs that will be created because of AI read this article of AI Jobs to Consider in 2024.

List Out the Technical And People Elements

It’s a good step to understand your role and the different technical and people elements that AI can play in it. List down these elements and focus on how you can integrate AI into these tasks. Technical elements include data collection, analysis, reporting, or routine administrative tasks. You can use AI to help you become more efficient in these tasks.

Here’s a quick sample of what your list can look like:

  • Responding to emails
  • Creating reports
  • Scheduling calls with clients

How AI Can Help

  • Use AI to create prompts and templates for email responses. Make sure to personalize.
  • Use AI for research but make sure to verify the information before proceeding
  • Use AI to automate sending out your calendar so clients can book directly

People elements can be communication or customer service focused. A great example would be using AI to create responses but adding a personal touch that these automated tools cannot do. Of course, some projects are better suited to be 100% human. For example, leadership skills and responding to the emotional needs of your clients and colleagues cannot be replicated by AI, which is a good thing!

Level Up Your Technical Skills

In today’s world, staying ahead means honing your tech skills. Whether you’re a coding whiz, a data guru, or a digital enthusiast, leveling up your technical skills is non-negotiable. Ever thought about enrolling in online courses tailored to your role? It’s a great way to boost your efficiency and increase your value for your team.

Let’s not forget the myriads of YouTube tutorials with tech tips and tricks. There’s something for everyone, whether it’s coding hacks, writing techniques, or gadget guides. After all, learning never stops—it’s the secret sauce to climbing the career ladder or navigating new horizons. AI will never be a one-stop shop for everything so being a specialist will help differentiate you as a leader in your space.

Leverage AI In Your Current Role

Don’t let AI intimidate you – let it empower you instead! Imagine making AI your trusty sidekick; you are not just completing your tasks but also consuming less time. And with this newfound efficiency, you can tackle more projects or explore new ventures. AI has your back, whether you’re eyeing career advancement, craving new opportunities, or simply longing for a well-deserved downtime. It can be more than just a tool. It’s your partner in crime, amplifying your efforts and opening doors to endless possibilities.

The digital world is ever-changing, and new devices will emerge from time to time. Do not let these artificial tools replace your skills. Instead, allow it to enhance your capabilities and emphasize your value. Without humans, there will be no AI. Be the master of these tools and pave your way to a better workflow, securing your job, or career advancement.
