FOR THE PING!

Soon, millions of government “employees” will be unemployed, deservedly so. The same with those in the propaganda media. What will become of them?
World wars, starvation and death is coming at a massive scale.
ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF WHY BIDEN’S UNEMPLOYMENT/EMPLOYMENT NUMBERS ARE A COMPLETE HOAX.
This is the white collar equivalent of people being paid to dig ditches with shovels rather than an excavator. There are a lot of “jobs” being done manually that could be accomplished better and faster with automation.
Thanks to Red Badger for the ping!
So artificial intelligence is a threat to jobs, but it’s not the tech that’s the problem. It’s the mountain of regulations and taxes that threaten to turn America into a continent-sized Detroit.
same with AI
AI has a mind of its own......................
The one way AI is indirectly responsible at Big Tech is that AI is *taking away* resources from other divisions. They are building large AI platforms which is a huge investment. It comes at the cost of shutting down divisions that were considered low priority. I know Google did this last year and the year before. Sundar Pichai himself wrote about it. It’s not that AI is replacing the jobs gone. Those jobs are gone to *fund* AI.
Maybe blame pajeets?
Yes, it will greatly increase productivity, but those below today's average will be in trouble.
Just wait until all the ‘little’ AIs start joining together...............
Is it all AI?
Or have we gotten to the point that low expectations and long waits are the norm?
Productive people become even more productive and less productive people get fired.
This is not a bad thing.

disagree.
They are grading on a curve.
A+ stay
A- leave
not much difference
BTTT

are you hallucinating???
Good point -- AI is just one factor among many.
I had to learn the Hollerith Code on 80 column punched codes.
Assembler language was a real bear on cards... Cobol and Fortran were not that bad...
I think when the first auto OBD scan tools came out, I am sure plenty of folks made the same pronouncements..."The computers will tell us exactly what is wrong with your cars\trucks and basic mechanics can fix those issues". Well, how did that work out? AI is simply a tool and will never replace actual humans. To say otherwise is hype and marketing by the tech monopolies. AI is a convenient punching bag for Currys who can't scam their way into American companies anymore with their fake resumes, spurious degrees, and middling intellects. I will not hire H1B Indians or DEI types. My perfect candidate is a guy in his 40s with 20+ experience in multiple projects and a track record of being tenscious on projects and getting things delivered. The Curry mumblers can work for $35 per hour at the big consulting firms. When they fail, I swoop in with my my guys and rescue your project.
This is a broad generalization, but let's say that a workplace starts using AI. And, as result, some workers, using AI, become significantly more productive, such that it quickly becomes apparent to management that there is now a larger staff than is needed to produce the same amount of work.
Who gets fired or transferred? The workers who are using AI to become significantly more productive or those who have not?
