The creators behind ChatGPT have revealed the jobs that are most at risk of being eradicated due to AI.
More people than ever before are cautious of the increasing capabilities of artificial intelligence, and they can't really be blamed.
While many rely on chatbots like OpenAI's ChatGPT to help them with everyday tasks, it can give advice on things that it should really avoid, under specific prompts.
The chatbot came under fire this year for providing instructions on blowing up a sports venue, while there was a case of a teenager sharing dark, suicidal thoughts with the bot, which gave him 'techinical specifications' about certain methods.

There's really no telling how much AI will develop in the coming years and decades, but the fact of the matter is it's changing the world we live in today, and it's already affecting the job market.
OpenAI have published a paper titled 'Measuring the performance of our models on real-world tasks', which assesses the 44 jobs most at risk of being replaced by AI in the imminent future.
The study involved using an assessment called GDPval to use the most advanced technology against human workers across the US' nine most profitable industries.
One industry in particular will be brutally hit with the implementation of AI, as it was found that Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.1 system outdone humans when it came to producing results on workplace duties.

Those in the retail industry may be in trouble, with Claude Opus outperforming counter and rental clerks in 81 percent of competition, while sales managers were beaten in 79 percent of them, while shipping, receiving, and inventory clerks lost out by 76 percent.
Registered nurses avoided being defeated on the majority of tasks, with AI prevailing in just 37 percent, as OpenAI stated: "We found that today's best frontier models are already approaching the quality of work produced by industry experts."
Government roles such as compliance officers and social workers were outperformed on 52 percent of tasks, but surprisingly, film directors and journalists (thank god) have seemingly dodged a bullet when looking at the figures.
The information sector, which includes the likes of film directors, producers, and journalists, lost in just 39 percent of tasks.
This report said that results ultimately depended on the chatbot models being used for each job, as some were better at other jobs compared to others.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said that job displacement is an issue that haunts him, claiming in an appearance on The Tucker Carlson Show: "I'm confident that a lot of current customer support that happens over a phone or computer, those people will lose their jobs, and that'll be better done by an AI."
Despite these claims, the company said that these results show that AI will simply 'support people in the work they do every day' instead of replace them, although that remains to be seen.
