AI A new study by the company Anthropic shows that skilled people in the areas where AI was going to be most affected have benefited from adopting it. Those who are not learning AI, there is a fear of being left behind. Studies regarding India say that in comparison to the population here, very few people are using AI. India is ranked 98th among 116 countries.
Main points of anthropic study
- Following are the key points of the Anthropic ‘Economic Index’ report (REF.).
- Users who have learned AI tools are able to do their work more effectively.
- After learning AI tools, people see them as their helpers.
- AI is given more difficult tasks and made to complete them.
- Continuous use of AI improves the user’s ability to make maximum use of the tools.
Those who are learning AI will come out ahead and the rest?
According to the NDTV report, the study says that early adopters of AI are skilled and technical professionals, i.e. those who have a good understanding of technology. Regarding this group, the Economist had expressed apprehension that AI would end their work. Now this class is benefiting the most by adopting AI. This skill gap has been talked about in the study. It has been said that those who know AI are making progress, while the rest may be left behind.
What does the study say about India
- There are two main things about India in this study and there is a contradiction in both.
- India has been placed at number 98 among 116 countries in the world in AI ranking. This means that fewer people are using AI in the country right now.
- However, the study also says that the Indians who are using it are smarter than the rest of the world. For example, from web development to coding, Indians are taking the help of AI more than the rest of the world.
Not ‘humans vs AI’, ‘those who know vs those who don’t know AI’
The world talks about AI vs humans but there is no discussion yet on ‘AI knowers vs those who don’t know’ and this study also brings forward this concern. Experts around the world are saying that AI will not take away our work but will help us in our work. While this will eliminate some areas, new opportunities will also arise. The question is that the one who is not learning AI today, will he be of no use tomorrow?
