MIT Study: AI Still Limited in Ability to Replace Most Human Work
- MIT study finds only 23% of workers' wages could be cost-effectively replaced by AI currently
- Researchers predict it will take until 2026 before half of vision tasks achieve an AI cost advantage
- Study estimates only 3% of "visual inspection" tasks are economically automatable now
- AI lacks depth of human thought processes; intuition and emotional intelligence resist automation
- While AI will affect some industries, study concludes most jobs are susceptible but not immediately susceptible to automation
