While some of these can be traced to early times\, the industrial age of 19th and 20th centuries gave substant ial impetus to the automation culminating in electro–mechanical systems controlled by electronics / computing systems. Even much before the advent of modern electronic computers\, there have been quests to automate and m echanize aspects of human thinking and cognition. The birth of modern elec tronic computers spawned many formal areas of study within the computing d iscipline\, such as programming\, hardware design\, operating systems\, pr ogramming languages\, etc. Among these ‘early’ areas was Artificial In telligence (AI)\, a term coined in 1956. AI (Artificial Intelligence)\, am ong several goals\, has contributed to the automation of several tasks inv olving human reasoning and decision making. While several of the tasks/goa ls have not had much success\, several others have been successes\, althou gh in limited ways\, and many others have matured and have been incorporat ed into products which are routinely used today. With the overwhelming amo unt of data and information to be handled in the present day in many profe ssions\, several of the AI techniques are called upon to automate and ease the tasks of deriving useful knowledge from out of the data and informati on\, which are scattered.\nIn this presentation\, we outline several examp les of automation in a variety of areas and major developments in Artifici al Intelligence (AI). While automation results in several categories of jo bs to either vanish\, the workforce in several others to diminish\, it als o creates several new categories of jobs and professions. We will also ana lyse and discuss the drastic changes in the nature of future jobs and the workforce reductions in many domains\, which seem certain in the wake of r apid advances in AI and its use in automation in several domains.\n\nCo-sp onsored by: IEEE PES GLAU Student Branch chapter\, IEEE CS GLA Universit y Student Branch Chapter and IEEE WIE GLA University Student Affinity Gro up. \n\nSpeaker(s): Prof S.R.
