So has AI took your job yet
It has to have taken some industries down like copy writing. Why ain't we hearing shyt though?
How is googles search business not in the drain?
Tech that needed programmers should be down sizing.

So, I just attended an A.I. Summit hosted by Tennessee State University. Mind Blown.One thing that I took away from this conference is that A.I. will not replace us but A.I. will replace people who don't know A.I.
So I'm good then.

So again… has it taken all the jobs people have said it would?
Like you said, so far the only “tech” jobs it’s taken are the ones where you copy and paste shyt
I work as a financial planner for a major wall street firm. In my personal experience, AI hasn’t taken anybody’s job yet but it def has put a freeze on hiring new people. I was supposed to hire a 3rd assistant to take my calls this yr & was instead told to have my 2 current assistants utilize the firms new AI tool to streamline their tasks so they have more time to answer the phones for my clients.
This is bullshyt & part of why I’ve decided to leave the firm. High net worth individuals & business are not paying me thousands each yr to deal with a glorified chat bot

Because the economy requires consumers. No jobs=no money=no consumers=economic collapse
This is why I say they won't let AI go that far.
No but I personally know that this major insurance company my sister works for has employees feeding the ai system they are working on right now.So has AI took your job yet

the thing about capitalism is that greed and self-interest is revered as being the the way to success. companies who choose to hire less so that they can keep more profit aren't thinking about the economy as a whole,they'll justify their decision by believing some other business will be the sucker who will employ the workers that they'll able to sell goods and services to. acting in their own self-interest like they always have, we could very well enter a doom loop cycle of people gradually having less disposable income to no income at all and businesses having few customers to keep the lights on so they go out of business.
AI development is accelerating fast and they'll absolutely let it go that far because whoever gets to AGI can leapfrog any competitor or country in terms of technological advancement.

Which is largely why anyone that is enlightened ends up tuning out of the system. At some level you are compromising yourself for an ideal of success that is compromised itself.
We're are not all going to win at capitalism and we are not all meant to. I think there is more power in learning to be self sustaining more and more in life to take back some of that power from capitalism. We start with food, energy consumption our living footprint and onward to depend less on buying and more on what we can do for self. Take back some value in our current tax bracket as opposed to always aiming to make more just to spend more.
If I was blessed with millions I'm going right to designing communities that encourage people to grow food and trade skills bring back a healthy level of battering, inter communal living. Encourage entrepreneurship. We gave too much power to corporations and resigned to being consumers we don't do shyt but work to spend

Has it took their jobs…
Oh the government would def still tax UBI somehow. But our entire American business model relies on money circulation, you cut off the dollar flow and have AI take all the jobs, how the fk are corporations still making money in the same amounts?

The holy grail for AI companies will be automating jobs of higher paid knowledge workers but the challenge will be that a lot of those jobs are multiple discrete tasks AND talking to people. Take software development, it rarely is about just writing code to spec. This is where the approach of...
