As AI is starting to gain popularity in the modern digital age, an interesting and crucial question is asked: what changes will artificial intelligence bring to the work industry? In this research, we will view AI from both a positive and negative perspective to consider what it can do for the future of society. Our research encompasses the trade-offs and the effects the implementation of AI in work industries will bring. Recognizing how AI will change our workforce will be an important question to answer in the upcoming years of technological innovation, so we decided to tackle it and find a possible answer. By examining the different impacts of AI on employment, we aim to contribute valuable insights that can inform discussions, policies, and strategies for a balanced integration of AI into the future workplace. Our study determines how AI can positively impact the workforce through supplementing productivity, streamlining processes, and creating new employment opportunities. At the same time, we also delve into potential challenges such as job displacement, ethical concerns surrounding AI, and the absence of comprehensive policies. By taking a comprehensive approach to assess the implications of AI on employment, we aim to contribute valuable insights. These insights can inform discussions, shape policies, and guide strategies for a balanced integration of AI into the changing landscape of the future workplace.
