INTRODUCTION
The study and development of computer systems with reasoning and action capabilities is
known as artificial intelligence (AI). The creation of intelligent machines is the main goal of
AI. Intelligent behaviour should be demonstrated by reasoning, decision-making, problem-
solving, and—above all—learning. Serious study in the multidisciplinary field of artificial
intelligence (AI) requires understanding in computer science, linguistics, psychology,
philosophy, and other areas.

Intelligent machines are those that employ artificial intelligence to learn from their
surroundings and historical data in order to operate more effectively when faced with
uncertainty and variability. The surroundings and experiences that one has shape their
intelligence. It is behaviour that is human. An intelligent machine is one that is programmed,
such as a computer system, to learn from its inputs and outputs.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a significant force in both the public and commercial
sectors, and businesses are utilizing it in their daily operations. AI can automate activities,
giving workers more time to concentrate on more intricate and creative work. It can also
analyse data at a scale that is challenging for humans to match, giving significant insights into
customer behaviour and corporate operations. Businesses are using AI for more than only
complicated business choices and essential company operations; it is also important for
routine internal and administrative tasks. Although AI has the ability to completely transform
the way we operate, there are some moral and legal issues that need to be addressed as we
progress.

Artificial intelligence (AI) in the workplace helps businesses become more efficient in their
operations, make choices more quickly, and develop new goods and services. The literature
on the coexistence of workers and AI in the workplace is still developing, despite the
abundance of knowledge regarding the potential benefits of AI for companies. Understanding
the direction of scholarly research in this field requires an examination of new themes and
research goals. The main research issue of this study is how employees will get along with AI
in the workplace.
BACKGROUND
The mythology of artificial beings from antiquity has a long history in AI. That being said,
the mid-1900s marked the start of the modern era. The Turing Test was proposed by Alan
Turing in 1950. The field of artificial intelligence was founded at the 1956 Dartmouth
Conference. Symbolic reasoning was the main emphasis of early AI.

Overpromising brought AI a "winter" in the 1980s. Expert systems and other pragmatic
applications became more prevalent in the 1990s. The 21st century saw a rise in the use of
machine learning due to improvements in algorithms and processing capacity.

Advances in deep learning, natural language processing, and reinforcement learning in recent
years have propelled artificial intelligence (AI) into a number of industries, including finance,
healthcare, and autonomous cars. These days, ethical issues and responsible AI development
are major factors in the field's progress.

Over time, as technology has advanced and people's knowledge of artificial intelligence's
potential benefits has grown, so too has the incorporation of AI into business. Here's a quick
rundown:

Early Expert Systems and Automation (1950s–1980s): During this period, companies mostly
employed automation for repetitive activities. Expert systems were also established to mimic
human skill in particular disciplines; these systems depended on rule-based decision making.

Knowledge-Based Systems (1980s–1990s): To manage complicated decision-making


processes, the emphasis shifted to knowledge-based systems and rule-based AI applications.
But during this time, the excitement over AI resulted in lower-than-expected expectations,
which helped create the "AI winter."

Resurrection of Machine Learning (1990–2000s): Improvements in machine learning,


especially with regard to algorithms like support vector machines and neural networks, have
led to a renewed interest in artificial intelligence. Companies began investigating uses for
predictive analytics and data mining.

Cloud computing and big data in the 2010s: AI is making a comeback thanks in large part to
the availability of large datasets and greater computer power made possible by cloud
computing. Companies started using AI for fraud detection, recommendation engines, and
client segmentation.
Neural networks and Deep Learning (2010s–Present): Advances in deep learning, fueled by
neural networks, transformed artificial intelligence. Significant progress in speech and picture
recognition throughout this era has led to applications in domains such as virtual assistants,
self-driving cars, and facial recognition systems.

From the 2010s until the present, useful Business apps: AI apps have grown in usefulness and
accessibility for enterprises. Customer service departments now use chatbots, virtual
assistants, and natural language processing technologies, and machine learning algorithms
have improved decision-making across a range of businesses.

Emphasis on Sector-Specific Solutions Up to This Point: AI is currently being more and more
adapted to industry-specific requirements. Predictive maintenance, targeted marketing, supply
chain optimization, and other applications are using it. Businesses are putting money into AI
to boost productivity and obtain a competitive advantage.

Ethical & Responsible AI (Present): As AI is used more often in business, ethical issues are
receiving more attention. Businesses are concentrating on ethical AI procedures, addressing
issues with accountability, transparency, and prejudice.

Technological developments, shifting business requirements, and a growing comprehension


of AI's potential have all contributed to the increasing integration of AI into business. It is
anticipated that as AI technologies advance, their influence on a range of businesses will
increase.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
In order to investigate worker-AI coexistence, this study takes a worker perspective and
contextualizes the underlying concepts. The objective is to provide a theoretical framework
for further research development in this field and to incorporate the relevant material. ------
shows that several aspects of the expected influence of AI on labor have been the subject of
current studies. To comprehend the direction of scholarly research on the coexistence of
workers and AI, it is imperative to investigate themes and research agendas. The main study
question for that reason is how employees will get along with AI in the workplace.
