Whatever the % is, then aggregate that across all the roles in the workforce and soon we will be at home watching TV while the machines work for us...until they get smart and figure it out. Saving Changes...
I think it really depends on what percentage of time a given PM is spending on rote tasks as well as basic analysis until we reach a point where all team members and other stakeholders are also robots.
In some organizations, a PM doesn't do any project administration and focuses purely on interpersonal relationships - stakeholder management and so on. In such cases, I wouldn't see much impact of AI. In others, the PM spends a huge amount of time on project admin and this might then free them up to take on more complex projects or more concurrent projects.
Sante by then me and you would be watching the 2030 show

I would think patient/doctor interactions would be one area that most people might reject at having AI shoved in. Then again, a lot of my doctor's visits end up with the doctor robotically asking me questions, so I am not sure there would be much of a difference.
It makes me glad part of my job is building robotic process automation. There was statement I read a few years ago, I don't recall the original author's name, but it went something along the lines of, "In the future, there will be two types of jobs, those that tell computers what to do and those that get told what to do by computers."

Joshua, good statement though, I'll take the first part of it.

My understanding is that AI will assist project managers and won't replace them. As with every technology, AI alone will not guarantee success.

Anish, that's assuming we (humans) are the ones defining success in the future ;-) Self-aware AI may have their own definition.
Sonali, thanks for referring to that article, I am not saying it will completely shutdown PM tasks but what percentage can be done by AI for us.

Aha Eric so this is your tough part well of course machine negotiation would be zero emotion so it will ask with predefined text when it it reach rock bottom it will ask either you take the offer or get lost :-)
