We are living in a world where technology continues to advance, and one of the best examples is Artificial intelligence which keeps getting smarter, and more people are wondering, 'Is my job safe?' In the article below, we'll look at professions that are at risk of being taken over by AI. These include live casino dealers, programmers, and customer support specialists.

AI Live Casino Dealers Can Operate Around the Clock

More casinos are moving towards online platforms to let customers play from the comfort of their homes. The rise of live casino online games attracted many players, and although this industry is growing quite fast, there are some doubts about whether people might lose their jobs working in the gambling field. Live casinos are famous for providing more human touch, and it's because of the human dealers, whose jobs might be endangered by technology.

A dealer in the casino industry is responsible for dealing cards, taking bets from players, and even monitoring suspicious behavior to prevent cheating. Is this something that AI dealers could do? Definitely. AI casino dealers can do all these even more effectively while operating around the clock.

Some of the benefits of AI live casino dealers are:

  • Reduced Costs: Casino owners can cut costs since they don't need to hire and pay live dealers.
  • 24/7 Service: AI live dealers can help online casinos provide 24/7 service to global players in different time zones. Casino owners also don't need to worry about what time live dealers get to work so that they can start dealing cards and managing the games.
  • Custom Rewards: Casino live dealers don't need to rack their brains to come up with weekly rewards. Instead, AI live dealers can customize the rewards in seconds. They can do this by analyzing how much time a player spends at the online casino.

Of course, if AI replaces human dealers, many people will wonder whether there will still be the human touch or not. The time will show it.

AI Programmers May Be Faster and More Productive

Since OpenAI launched in 2022, there have been ongoing questions on the internet, such as: Will AI replace programmers? What does the future hold for them?

Before ChatGPT became mainstream, programmers would work day and some even night to write code and create applications. This hard work of course pays off but that is the reason why software development is still such an expensive service, and sometimes even not affordable especially by individuals and startups. Today, AI platforms easily write advanced codes in just several minutes. Besides, it's even free.

This is because AI is capable of the following:

  • Task Automation: Repetitive tasks when programming can be automated by AI. What would take a human programmer hours to complete can be done in a much shorter time span with AI. Examples of automated tasks include debugging and code testing.
  • Increasing Efficiency: ChatGPT and other AI models can follow a rule-based logic. As a result, AI can develop multiple solutions to the same problem. Programmers can use this as a tool to narrow down their search when solving problems.
  • Improved Accuracy: Since programmers are human, they are prone to error. AI models produce high levels of accuracy and can find errors in code that has already been written.
  • Increasing Productivity: Unlike programmers who can only handle a few projects at a time, AI can juggle several complex projects.

There's no doubt that AI models are faster and more efficient than human programmers. However, AI can't completely replace programmers, especially on projects that need creativity and a human touch.

Instead of being afraid of the new technology, programmers can embrace it, using it as an efficient set of libraries that can help to accomplish difficult tasks.

AI Customer Support Specialist Is Less Emotional and More Patient

Many companies offer 24/7 or 25/5 customer support. This means that customer support specialists work around the clock, including odd hours of the night. Maybe this is one of the reasons why 87% of customer support specialists report experiencing work stress. The professional is not rosy at all since they sometimes deal with rude customers over the phone.

Luckily, AI chatbots can take this burden off customer support specialists. These bots can be trained with generative language to answer frequently asked questions and even chat with customers about their day.

AI models can be used to train chatbots to be more conversational. They achieve this by analyzing the tone of voice of customers. Based on this, the chatbot can produce a response that's appropriate for the situation to help customers.

Some businesses even use AI chatbots to chat with customers about their day. This improves customer satisfaction and helps them retain clients. IBM even reports that companies that use AI chatbots for their customer service can save up to 30% of funds.

Although AI chatbots quickly help customers with their queries, they can't completely replace call center workers since some customers prefer receiving help via the phone. However, they can help with more basic issues addressed by customers, that don't require human interaction and could be solved after some small clarifications. This will definitely leave time and energy for human support specialists to help customers who are experiencing more complex issues.
