MIT study finds AI has the effect of limiting tasks that require visual stimulation.

Researchers from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) worked with IBM's Institute for Business Value to assess the potential impact of machine learning algorithms and AI services on the job market. They found that full algorithmic systems will not be economically viable for most in the next decades.

This study focuses on the desired work. "Visual analytics," such as product inspection for quality control at the end of the production line, researchers determined that only 23 percent of wages paid for vision work are economically attractive to automation. Humans will continue to be the better economic choice for these jobs.
