ARTIFICIAL intelligence may be advancing at a pace that is reshaping entire industries, but it is not displacing the need for human judgment, accountability or domain expertise. Instead, it is reorganizing the structure of work itself, according to Arun Biswas, Global AI and Sustainability Leader at IBM Consulting.<\/p>\n

Speaking to The Manila Times after his presentation at the Asian Development Bank, Biswas said the future of employment will be defined less by machines replacing people and more by the emergence of new human roles created by increasingly capable AI systems. \u201cHuman judgment and accountability will remain,\u201d he said. \u201cAI is a machine. You can\u2019t hold AI accountable. You have to hold a human accountable at the end of the day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Across Asia, governments and industries are wrestling with the implications of rapid AI adoption, from job displacement to workforce readiness to the need for new governance frameworks. Biswas argues that the real challenge is not simply teaching workers new technical skills but preparing them for roles that do not yet exist.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn any of these rapid technological shifts, you not only need people to learn new skills, you\u2019ll actually have new roles coming up,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He pointed to software development as a clear example. While AI systems are becoming increasingly capable of generating code, reducing the volume of traditional programming work, this does not eliminate the need for people. It shifts the work toward validating AI\u2011generated outputs, setting operational context, monitoring performance and ensuring compliance.<\/p>\n
