Robots have become more intelligent and Artificial Intelligence or AI is the cause. The complicated algorithms that form the base of AI are used to solve many repetitive issues in decision making in the industrial sector. It’s a simple logic gate that is at work and ensures that production in an assembly line is as smooth as robotically possible!

Yes, the robots can be a huge help in saving man hours and utilizing resources to the best of their ability. However, would you trust AI to pick a job for a human being to do? Would you turn over your potential future to a robot to pick your next working assignment? That’s the question that researchers at Wiley tried to check with an online study comprising more than three hundred participants.

The study asked participants to make a personal strategic career choice. They were told that they were in the market for a new job, had applied to a number of positions and were accepted by many of these. Now they had to make a choice about the job they wanted to accept. They were told they could pick any job they liked by themselves, or use an algorithm to pick the most appropriate job for them. The scientific experiment in decision-delegation found that the less aware the participant was of the situation, the more likely they were to delegate the decision to AI.
