The rapid adoption of ChatGPT has created real excitement about the potential for generative artificial intelligence. Could it improve productivity? Galvanise economic growth? Create new and interesting jobs? Others predict a darker outcome, where AI replaces white collar jobs, leaving some sectors obsolete.
