This is kinda cope
Practically everyone's job is going to be automated away before long, the important thing is that production is socialised before practically 1 guy owns everything and has to pay no one.
At that point things end up pretty concrete.
These opinion pieces that pop up saying "ha-HA! Behold the petard they're hoisting themselves with!" Kinda miss the importance of preparation.
They falsely expect an easing to an exponential curve.
The cat leapt out of the bag decades ago, we all need to make sure we've got something left at the end of it all
We haven’t yet made an AI that can replace anyone’s job, so it might be better to hold off on resigning ourselves to that fate.
I replaced all of my online contractors with AI. Our business will only hire local people from now on.
It is well worth the money, and we just had it write a few programs that do what those contractors did.
It sums up our email inbox for us.
It writes near perfect customer responses (trained on our business data).
I’m not sure what to tell you but some of you are going to be blindsided.
It’s just a small business, too. Now that we don’t need to pay those contractors (who did a worse job than what we get now) we are scaling up.
Believe me or don’t but i can’t be the only one doing this.
So it can just talk about things in a limited scope believably. I call it the "sounds about right machine" for a reason. It says things that sound about right and not much else.
