In recent years, we have witnessed a veritable boom in information, speculation and debates about the impact of Generative Artificial Intelligence. The popularization of these tools is making the job market increasingly competitive, where technological analysis and developments become key points to stand out. Marcos Sanchez, CTO of Saint Paul Business School, during the panel “Generalization of AI that creates the most value in business today” at the 2nd Interlog Summit, emphasized that AI will continue to intervene in the market, modifying and improving several professions, including that of software developer.
According to data from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) presented at the 2024 World Forum, almost 40% of jobs worldwide will be impacted by the advance of AI in the coming years, replacing some professions and complementing others. This influence will be even more significant in countries with advanced economies, reaching up to 60% of jobs. In emerging markets and low-income countries, the proportions are 40% and 26%, respectively.
"AI works as a prediction engine based on highly bolivia whatsapp data effective and agile algorithms, not replacing human presence, but rather automating tasks and increasing their importance. The key point is that, with greater integration of AI in the workplace, human focus shifts to higher levels of creativity, development and intellect. In addition, the implementation of AI also brings with it tangible benefits, such as reduced operating costs and increased productivity," explains Marcos Sanchez, CTO of Saint Paul Business School.
The integration of autonomous tools into software development services, for example, allows for greater agility and precision. However, this does not mean that the programming profession will become extinct; there will simply be an adaptation in the worker profile.
"Currently, several Artificial Intelligence tools facilitate the programming process and can speed up code development in less time. However, it is important to emphasize that these tools do not replace programmers; on the contrary, they require them to acquire skills to use them and become more analytical. This dynamic reflects a parallel with the Industrial Revolution: those who are best prepared to use the tools will have a competitive advantage," emphasizes Sanchez.
Another very important topic that is practically starting in Brazil is the development of public policies that guide the use of Artificial Intelligence. This topic has made progress in Europe, but is at a standstill in Brazil.
Technological evolution is transforming the work environment and creating a demand for knowledge that complements Artificial Intelligence (AI). Professionals must develop skills in interpreting data and seeking continuous learning. “This change requires a broad approach to professional development, emphasizing the importance of being ready to acquire new skills and remain relevant in a constantly changing job market,” he concludes.
In addition to Marcos Sanchez, the panel included Fernando Gasparini, Executive Director of Supply Chain at Casas Bahia, Angela Maria Gheller Teles, Business Director for Manufacturing and Logistics at TOTVS, and Antonio Wrobleski, President of BBM Logística. They spoke and debated the topic under the moderation of Pedro Moreira, from Abralog.
