JAKARTA The AI invasion, which replaces humans, continues to worry many parties. Even the bosses are worried that artificial intelligence (AI) can steal their jobs one day.

Hundreds of chief executives (CEOs) admit that they are secretly using tools like ChatGPT to help them carry out their daily responsibilities. It's not even a shame to admit it as the result of their own work.

The discovery comes just weeks after a leading think tank warned that AI could take over eight million jobs in the UK.

The company boss is now sending'starters' staff to the AI training camp to prepare them for this technology, according to a report from AND Digital.

A survey of 600 business leaders found that three-quarters of them were conducting retraining of their employees in order to adapt to the technology rather than replacing them.

AI experts predict that machines have a Chance to take over all of our work in a century.

However, although the 'work apocalyps' are expected to automate administrative work and entry rates first, it will further affect those who are paid higher because AI is increasingly sophisticated.

Nearly half - 43 percent - bosses surveyed admitted they were also worried that AI could steal their jobs. While 45 percent said they had secretly used AI tools for various tasks and acknowledged them as the result of their own work.

This happened even though one of the three bosses banned their staff from using chatbots within their organization. Reports from AND Digital, whose independent survey was conducted by Censuswide, found that 44 percent of global CEOs were not sure their staff were ready to face AI.

CEOs can't underestimate AI. They also shouldn't let a culture of fear and distrust surrounding new technologies develop, so giving new skills to people and teams in all departments with the highest standards should be a top priority, "said Stephen PASSerson, head of technology and sdm at the tech company.

"It is important for business leaders to establish a well-designed framework around AI to maximize value and reduce risk, empower people with guidelines and resources to innovate safely," he said.

"Failure to do so will see them lag behind competitors and lag behind colleagues who have AI skills to lead a new wave of technological innovations," he added.

Other business leaders also voiced the need to improve their employee skills as 'AI continues to change traditional work models'.

"AI is here to stay, and businesses thinking ahead will lay the groundwork now to ensure staff are fully ready to adopt and implement them ethically and responsibly for the impact of maximum customers," said Libero Raspa, IT consultant director Adesso UK.

Experts share opinions about the effects AI will have on the global labor market - but all agree that this will, and already, have a major impact.

BT last year announced plans to reduce tens of thousands of jobs by 2030 - with about 10,000 to be replaced by technology.

A survey of more than 2,700 AI researchers in January showed AI could be better and cheaper than humans in each profession in 2116. The estimated date is nearly 50 years earlier than the same prediction made the previous year, highlighting how fast AI's current development is.

A report last month by the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) showed that young workers, low-income, and women are likely to be affected first. But this will further affect high-income workers, with the worst scenario of seeing 7.9 million jobs if the government does not act.
