In Trabaho, Visa, atbp., Xenai Digital CEO and founder Pauline Pangan outlines essential strategies for professionals to adapt and thrive as Artificial Intelligence transforms the global workforce.
Key Points
- According to a report by Jobs and Skills Australia, several roles face a high risk of displacement due to AI, including general clerks, receptionists, accounting clerks, and bookkeepers, as well as professionals in sales, marketing, public relations, business and systems analysis, and programming.
- AI focuses on automating repetitive tasks rather than completely replacing the need for human intuition and creativity, according to Pauline Pangan.
- She added that self-education through free online courses and community engagement is vital for staying competitive in the job market.

Sa kabila ng pangamba ng maraming manggagawa sa mundo kabilang na sa Australia at Pilipinas na baka kunin ng artificial intelligence ang kanilang mga trabaho isang Filipina Australian tech leader ang nagbahagi ng mahalagang payo kung paano makakasabay at hindi mapag-iwanan sa gitna ng mabilis na pag-usbong ng teknolohiyang ito yan ang ating pag-uusapan sa Trabaho visa at iba pa.

lumabas sa ilang pag-aaral gaya ng investment bank na Baron Joe na halos lahat ng trabaho sa Australia ay mababago dahil sa teknolohiya ng artificial intelligence o AI at ilan pa ang maaaring maging obsolete.
spk_1
Pero iginiit ni Pauline Pangan, isang CEO at founder ng Xenai Digital na isang kompanyang itinatag sa Pilipinas bago lumawak sa Singapore at Australia na bagaman marami ang nakakaramdam ng takot na mapalitan ng makina ang katotohanan aniya mas nakatuon ang AI sa pag-automate ng mga paulit-ulit na gawain kaysa sa tuluyang pagtanggal sa papel ng tao.

Being at the forefront of this technology em
spk_3
I see the potential of how much it can accelerate businesses, how how much it can really leapfrog a small business to compete with a larger business, cause it's no longer about manpower, it's about the automating power of what AI can do. It's not just for companies but also for individuals. So employees who would lean in and really study and use it in their daily lives will be ahead, right?
spk_3
So, ChatGPT, Cloud, Gemini, whatever platforms anyone is using, that's LLM, that is like the entry level, right? And then there's agentic, and then there's ah multi-agents. This is really where a lot of the salesforce.com, Microsoft are playing.
spk_3
But there's a tech race that is going on, where you know the oligarchs are are really racing to achieve, which is the super general intelligence, so AGI and then super general intelligence. Right now it hasn't been unlocked, but that's where they're spending their billions of dollars in unlocking that power.
spk_3
Now, a lot of the tasks that can be automated are getting shifted from humans to the machines, right, and it's great because the idea is that all of these automation work can be done by machines so humans like us can focus on creative work, work that really challenges us that gives us that human capacity to express
spk_3
ourselves um which will be a lot more fulfilling than doing a manual repetitive
spk_1
work sa naging ulat ng jobs and skills soya, may ilang trabaho na malaki ang panganib na mawala dahil sa AI gaya ng general clerks, receptionists, accounting clerks at bookkeepers, sales, marketing and public relations professionals, gayundin ang business and systems analysts at programmers.
spk_1
kaya naman binigyang diin ni Pauline Pangan na dapat tingnan din ito sa perspektibo ng ekonomiya lalo't may mga mawawalan ng trabaho. So
spk_3
those who are transitioning, upskilling, reskilling, they will they won't run out of jobs, they will always have a position, right?
spk_3
But when this AGI comes into play, right? Even in the agentic world. So in any technology breakthrough, there's always an opportunity, but there's also like perils, right? So even as simple as a knife,
spk_3
If you use it to stab people, that's hurting people, but if you use it to make a beautiful meal for people, you know, it's a utility, right? From an economic perspective, it could create a lot of prosperity, but there's a lot of people who could be left behind.
spk_3
And this is my call. This is what I always want people to know. If you're a mother, if you're a father, if you're a teacher, if you're a student, if you're a business leader, if you're a politician, we need to think about what will be the impact to the economy so that no one gets left behind.

naniniwala si Paulin na ang S ay hindi ang pag-iwas sa A I kundi ang pakikipagugnayan dito self-education aniya ay napakalaking bahagi ng tagumpay sa kasalukuyang panahon dagdag niyang hindi na kailangang magbayad ng malaki para matuto dahil napakaraming libreng materyales at kurso aniya na available online
spk_1
mahalagaan niya ring lumahok sa mga komunidad na bukas sa pag-aaral tungkol sa AI para laging updated sa mga bagong kaalaman.
spk_3
self education is is is big for me, like that's how I think I mentioned to you, I had to learn on the job, right? We are extremely privileged and lucky that there isn't a shortage in information, there isn't a shortage in
spk_3
materials that you can learn from free courses from Coursera, I have so many like, you know, certificates from that and they're really high quality. Harvard, Google, they're all giving free courses. I would start there, right? Constantly learning, you're not gonna get left behind if you're constantly learning and then expose yourself in communities like those that are open to learning about AI.
spk_1
pinapayuhan ni Pulin ng mga propesyonal na wag umasa sa sariling kakayahan lamang kung maaari namang gamitin ang AI para tulungan kang mag-isip ng mas malawak ang paggamit ng mga AI to ay itinuturing niyang isang mahalagang puhunan para sa bawat empleyado. Learn
spk_3
as much as you can on your own, like ask chat GPT everyday, like I think it's like a, a month. I think that's a worthwhile investment, cut out other things, you know, pay the 2020 per month.
spk_3
I say to my friends, even my one of my very successful best friend, like, do not rely on your own brain. You have the power in at your fingertips, the ability to think the way Warren Buffet thinks, the way Sundar Pichai thinks, the the top business owners, the top minds in the world, in any scenario.
spk_3
ask it what it can teach you and learn how to interact with it right so that's the very very basic
spk_1
hindi lamang sa mga indibidwal ang responsibilidad hinimok din ni Pauline ang mga empleyado na tanungin ang kanilang mga kompanya tungkol sa mga training programs upang maging A I proof kung ang isang kompanya ay walang plano na gamitin ng AI o sanayin ang kanilang staff baka hindi na ito aniya magiging competitive sa hinaharap
spk_3
Ask your company, if I'm an employee right now, I will ask my company, what are the training skills for employees to be AI proof like you said, to be able to really compete in an agentic enterprise. If a company doesn't have any plans to utilize AI first and foremost or to train their staff,
spk_3
I I I have to be bold and say I wouldn't bet my life on staying in that company they might not last very long they want be competitive and they're not investing in my upskilling
spk_1
sa halip na matakot sinabi ni Pauline na dapat tingnan ng AI bilang pagkakataon upang alisin ang mga manwal na proseso at magkaroon ng mas maraming oportunidad para sa pag-unlad
spk_1
sa hulian niya ang inisyatba kagustuhang matuto ang magsisilbing puhunan ng bawat manggagawa
spk_3
enroll yourself in courses, like free courses on all those coursera, like I mentioned earlier, ask your company what training can I do about AI? Can I create a plan for us to be an agentic enterprise?
spk_3
can we leverage it to remove some of our manual processes. If you're a mother, if you're a student, these are the things that I would do first. And cause from there, you know, it will open up opportunities for you. When you start thinking about it, it becomes front of mind for you when you speak it, when you open, remember I said to you, I built my company just calling people, right? It's the initiative.
spk_3
it's your own like will to be able to learn and the world will open up to you when the student is ready the master appears
