CBS analyses how advances in artificial intelligence are starting to threaten jobs in the media and transport sectors. Jerry The Associated Press, author of a new book "Humans Need Not Apply: A Guide to Wealth and Work in the Age of Artificial Intelligence", states that in the next 10 to 20 years, around three million licensed professional drivers (cab and truck drivers) in the US are at risk of losing their jobs to driverless vehicles. The Associated Press also explains that white collar jobs could also be downsized considerably by advances in data computing. Kaplan, for example, is replacing journalists with a program called Wordsmith, which has so far written around 4,000 corporate earning stories.
