I can't help but wonder how the work will look like in forthcoming times when AI systems are massively implemented but unexpected results massively overtake the situation due to being systems, with their failures and malfunctioning need of updates and upgrades... probably emotional intelligence and decision-making capacity that cannot be programmed will save the day...so curiosity and immagination (since they are fundamental traits from which the aforementioned skills arise) should start to be really enhanced and prized at companies, don't you think?

Will there be a few spectacular, highly visible failures - very likely. Will those help to improve the degree of safety checks done prior to launching such interconnected systems - also very likely. The key is to ensure those failures do not have dire impacts such as loss of life. That is why governments, industry bodies and individual companies are working on trying to put guardrails in place.
My bigger fear is around the increased risk of lethal cyberattacks assisted by AI as "bad actors" won't obey any guardrails...

David, I share Kiron's fear as well and been raising the issue of privacy, and security for a while now. It's still not clear how those issues will be addressed so it is very possible that there will be few significant failures before things get better ... Saving Changes...
The key is these system are so complicated that you can not find out why it gives this specific answer. So, you may correct something (that literally means changing a set of parameters, algorithms and etc.) and screw up other things. Saving Changes...

"....their failures and malfunctioning need of updates and upgrades..." with all my due respect please let me say this is not right. The point is the lack of understanding about what AI is. And I am talking about AI in general, not about generative AI only. All "AI entities" create results with a probability of error inherent to the results. In fact, when you work with AI, one of the first things you learn is to calculate the grade of confidence in the results you will get. Because of that, AI is a tool that will help but final decisions are always in human being hands. For example, in domains like healthcare this take a critical importance. AI could help to detect cancer but the final decision about if it is or not in the medical doctor. Always, always AI will create results with a probability associated to it. It is a matter of statistics which are the foundation of AI. Saving Changes...
