I mean sure, Matt, but what can we do about it? What’s that? You have a service you happen to be selling that will help us?
Why do we need an H-1B work visa again?
Give these CEOs 5 customer issues that require human involvement. Make them navigate THEIR AI maze. I guarantee that each one would fail.
AI the new DEI ,LOL
Career Ladder has traditionally been:
Entry level position —> Middle Management —> Senior Position
Well, the entry level positions are getting cut really drastically, so I don’t know how people will start their career.
And most industries decided years ago that Middle Management is a waste of company money, so Middle Management got hollowed out a long time ago.
But we still have Senior positions, don’t we?
So you can’t be entry level, you can’t be in the middle,
but you can start your career as a Senior Vice President in charge of the Pacific Region.
Seriously: Our society better start putting some thought into a world in which most people have nothing to contribute to the national economy.
Cool. I was anyway thinking of moving to Minnesota and opening a child daycare and learing centre
skimming from government debt and printed fiat, is a lot more profitable than working in my cubicle anyway.
Only 50%? I bet it ends up being more.
When AI can lay block, pour a driveway, replace an HVAC motor, do a brake job or even turn a screwdriver I’ll consider being impressed.
Ai will have to strain to produce entry level subject matter on most subjects even straight out of the book
Perhaps they should ask AI how to prevent the job losses...since it will apparently “know everything”
We are now witnessing our government actively sponsoring and pushing more money into areas where the entire point is to get rid of the inefficient human laborer. Tens of billions from citizens to destroy those ‘jobs’. Good luck out there.
For those of us old enough to recall, this is the same kind of silliness we heard 35 years ago, except the word was “computers.” Computers were going to replace virtually all entry level workers. Humans would no longer be needed as computers would do everything. Computers were going to do this, going to do that. They took the same old mid 1990s hysteria and just replaced the word.
Will probably work as well as replacing the tech jobs with Indians. It has not gone very well.
yawn, baloney
It may be that AI doubles productivity.
When designing systems, picking the sweet spot of human/machine work sharing is important.
