The effects of technological innovation and automation in general on employment and economic growth have long been the subject of economic research.Conventional economic models balance a positive complementarity effect on employment against a negative displacement or substitution effect.The perspective that there is a positive overall impact on employment and incomes is firmly supported by economic history since the industrial revolution, despite recent data suggesting that the labour portion of total income is dropping.The most advanced task-based model establishes a competitive environment between humans and machines to complete tasks.It highlights how Artificial intelligence (AI) has the impact of creating, replacing, and displacing labour.The development of science and technology has been at the level of AI.AI deprives labour power and converts it into an instrument of labour, which was started by making tools into machines and machines into auto-machines.AI has multiple features -learning, listening, and speaking -so it is used in different areas, allowing the creation, replacement, and displacement of employees in any sector of employment.In history, humans have had labour power in any form, but that has been snatched by AI, which raises the question of employees' existence.
