Explanation:

The article "Heads Up, Humans: Get Ready" by Claudia Alarcon essentially talks about the increasing risk of automation and artificial intelligence in the employment sector. The author highlights how these technological advances in last few decades have already put about 40 percent of jobs at risk. This can be evidently reported from the research "According to a new report by a multi-national accounting and consulting firm based in London, 38% of U.S. jobs are at high risk of being replaced by robots and artificial intelligence".

The author further elaborates about how AI experts like Jerry Kaplan and physicist Steven Hawkings projected the same fate of losing jobs to automation and artificial intelligence in the near future.
