Artificial intelligence and autonomous systems are reshaping how work gets done across industries. In 2026, a new class of AI-driven technologies will not merely augment work but will increasingly replace tasks and roles previously performed by humans. This evolution raises both opportunities and challenges for professionals, organizations, and society at large.
