Recently, a piece of data has made people in the workplace restless: the penetration rate of GPT-5 in the workplace has exceeded 75%. This means that more and more jobs around us are being taken over by AI. From writing emails, making PPTs, data analysis, to customer service, administration, and even creative work, AI is showing its powerful capabilities.
Recently, a piece of data has made people in the workplace restless: the penetration rate of GPT-5 in the workplace has exceeded 75%. This means that more and more jobs around us are being taken over by AI. From writing emails, making PPTs, data analysis, to customer service, administration, and even creative work, AI is showing its powerful capabilities.
GPT-5 is changing the workplace landscape at an astonishing speed. According to the latest data, 75% of companies have introduced AI tools in their daily work, especially in highly repetitive and process-oriented positions, where AI's performance even exceeds that of human employees. For example, in the customer service industry, GPT-5's response accuracy has reached 95%, and it works 24 hours a day, but the cost is only 1/10 of that of human employees. In administrative positions, GPT-5 can complete tasks such as document sorting, data analysis, and meeting minutes, and its efficiency is 3-5 times that of ordinary employees.
What is more worrying is that AI is infiltrating more advanced positions. In the financial industry, GPT-5 can complete investment report writing, risk assessment, data analysis, and other tasks; in the creative field, AI can even generate advertising copy, design posters, and even write novels. These jobs, once considered "exclusive to humans", are being eaten away by AI step by step.
Faced with the strong invasion of AI, many people began to panic: Will we be replaced by AI? The answer is that some people will definitely be eliminated. But those who are eliminated are often those who can only do repetitive work. If your job can be completely replaced by AI, then it is only a matter of time before you are eliminated.
But the workplace is never black and white. Instead of being afraid of being replaced, it is better to think about how to coexist with AI, or even use AI to make yourself stronger. Those who can work with AI will become true "super individuals".
AI has made great progress in programming and code generation, such as automated code generation, bug detection, code review, and other programming tasks. However, although AI can help simplify and speed up the programming process, it currently cannot fully understand the complex needs of human users, nor can it think creatively or highly abstractly without human guidance.
A programmer's job is not just about writing code. It also involves understanding the problem domain, communicating with stakeholders, designing software architecture, solving complex problems, and teamwork and innovation. While AI may change the responsibilities of programmers and make them focus more on these aspects, human programmers will still be indispensable in the software development process, at least for the foreseeable future.
And ChatGPT's capabilities, as of the end of my knowledge update (recently), are indeed very powerful in many aspects, especially in natural language understanding and generation, answering basic programming questions, and creating text content. But ChatGPT still has limitations, such as handling very complex or novel problems, understanding subtle differences in context, and showing creativity. The development of technology is continuous, and future versions may be more powerful, but the improvement of capabilities is likely to match the changes in the roles and skill requirements of human programmers, rather than completely replace them.
