The article addresses concerns about AI's potential job displacement, particularly in pentesting. McKinsey's revised prediction suggests that instead of 375 million jobs lost, only 92 million may be affected, with 170 million new roles expected to emerge. Furthermore, while AI can automate repetitive tasks in pentesting, it lacks the human element that is crucial for creative problem-solving. AI tools are seen as enhancing the role of pentesters, allowing them to focus on more complex challenges rather than mundane tasks.
AI serves as a force multiplier for penetration testers, enhancing their capabilities rather than replacing them. While some pentesting tasks may be automated, human creativity remains essential.
McKinsey lowered its prior prediction of job displacement due to AI from 375 million to roughly 92 million, suggesting a transition rather than outright job losses in many fields.
