Going beyond being a new technology and becoming the key to humanity's progress, artificial intelligence is redefining the future. As our daily habits change, some professions also pass the baton to artificial intelligence. Online PR Service B2Press has put artificial intelligence, in which Turkey also ranks among the top 20 in investments, under scrutiny.

TURKEY - The widespread use of artificial intelligence (AI), a hot topic recently, is bringing strong growth. According to data released by Statista, the artificial intelligence market, expected to close in 2024 with a value of $305.9 billion, is projected to reach $738.8 billion in 2030 with an average annual growth rate of 15.8%. Tracking this rapid progress, B2Press shines a light on the present and future of artificial intelligence, which influences society in every aspect and creates a cold, competitive environment between economies. According to information shared by the online PR service, while artificial intelligence changes the flow of our work and daily lives, it raises many ethical questions. At the same time, it continues to transform many areas of our lives.

Turkey enters the top 20 in artificial intelligence investments

The analyses conducted by B2Press support the prediction that AI, which has become unprecedentedly accessible and usable, will reshape the world's algorithms for the future. Countries focus on strengthening their global position by investing in artificial intelligence, which will hold a significant share in their economies.

While the top three geographies investing the most in artificial intelligence are the USA, China, and the United Kingdom, they are followed by Japan, Germany, and France. Turkey, which has put forward significant innovation, technology, and information strategies, is positioned twentieth on this list.

14% of employees will hand over their jobs to artificial intelligence

As AI leads to a redefinition of the world's dynamics, the Online PR Service B2Press also scrutinizes the forecasts of what awaits us. Companies are advised to integrate productive AI applications into their businesses, improve employee experience, and use AI as a tool for innovation. People are advised to apply lifelong learning methods to acquire new skills, create areas of expertise for themselves, increase their knowledge, become agile, and always be open to possible scenarios. It is believed that AI, which is a key to technological and social progress, has not yet reached its full potential.

Investigations by B2Press show that while artificial intelligence opens up new areas by saving time and labor in business processes, it will also eliminate some professions. Accordingly, it is expected that 14% of workers worldwide will hand over their jobs to robot technology and artificial intelligence by 2030, and 30% of jobs will be automated. Customer service representatives, receptionists, accountants, and sales staff are at the top of the list of jobs AI is expected to take over, followed by data analysis researchers, warehouse workers, insurers, and retailers. However, teachers, lawyers, human resources specialists, and surgeons are among those who will not relinquish the flag of their profession.

34% of people fear artificial intelligence

Moving from the insights of Online PR Service B2Press, it is estimated that AI, developed based on a reasoning mechanism similar to human intelligence, will create a universe beyond what we can currently imagine. As we stand on the brink of such an era, many people worry whether they can protect their private lives with principles like privacy and transparency. 34% of people say they fear artificial intelligence. More than half (51%) also express their concerns about AI being misused by criminals. Deepfake applications that create extremely realistic videos or audio clips by imitating human characteristics such as voice and face are at the forefront of these concerns. While 90% of consumers are uneasy about deepfake incidents, one in four people struggle to distinguish fake voice samples. There is a demand for legal action to prevent such features of AI from being turned into tools of provocation and fraud.

The line between security and privacy is also becoming blurred due to artificial intelligence algorithms used in many items that are part of our daily lives, such as smart home devices. The potential for AI to violate privacy and even provide opportunities for cyber attackers that could threaten businesses in the workplace is thought to necessitate national-level legal measures. Because the capacity of AI systems to make decisions that directly affect our lives and exhibit behavior patterns necessitates countries to adopt a principle of responsibility.
