PETALING JAYA: From the assembly line to the courtroom, humans are being replaced by machines and artificial intelligence (AI).
With the drastic change in the work environment brought on by the global Covid-19 pandemic, the process is expected to pick up speed.
In fact, according to a recent statement by the World Bank, half of the jobs in Malaysia are already either disappearing or being performed from remote locations.
Arena Group head of human resources in Asia, Srithren Krishnan, pointed out that digitalisation cannot be stopped or postponed just to wait until a younger generation is ready to take over.
