SAN FRANCISCO, CA, USA, June 25, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- AIandYou, a non-profit organization aimed at educating marginalized communities on artificial intelligence (AI), released a suite of educational materials for the workforce to understand what jobs are at risk, what jobs are expected to change, and what new opportunities are expected to be created.

The World Economic Forum has estimated that artificial intelligence will replace some 85 million jobs by 2025. Most of these jobs are repetitive skills jobs such as data entry specialists, customer service representatives, translators, administrative assistants, social media managers, and many others. These jobs are often filled by members of marginalized communities who are not prepared for the coming changes. The future of work and local economic stability is at risk.

“Communities need to grasp the fundamentals of AI and its potential impact on their jobs before they can take action such as job upskilling programs,” emphasized Susan Gonzales, founder & CEO of AIandYou. “Our communities, especially those in repetitive skills roles, are not adequately prepared for the impending AI impact on their jobs. The time to prepare is now, by embracing AI literacy and understanding AI basics.”
