How will AI change the job market? 🤖

when AI can do my laundry, dry my clothes, fold them, put them away, clean my room, cook all my meals, and do the mundane house hold tasks that take up 90% of my free time, well, then we can talk.

So when AI replaces the worker, who buys the product? AI?

Thing is AI can actually replace most WHITE COLLAR JOBS right now . The thing I find interesting is thier going after blue collar jobs first. Only reason I can figure is coming after blue collar jobs first will disrupt the market enough to go after the white collar jobs without any real opposition since the damage will be done, including a lot of lawyers since contract writing and documentation is AI's strongest point .
Ironically AI can replace almost every contract writer, secretary, paralegal, and average cubical worker by lunch today .

15 years? That’s being generous. I’d day 5-10 years is when people are really going to start noticing a huge shift.

People who have power can cram this stuff down our throats without any discussion. They have no plan for homelessness, disruption in community, violation of the very nature of human social bonds. But they do have the ability to make lots and lots of money. It is called the capital order.

When people can't work due to being displaced, who is going to generate the money you are getting to get rich off of it?

The profits made from AI needs to be shared amongst the people that it takes jobs from as dividends.

Self driving vehicles is a big one. Trucking accounts for a huge portion of jobs for people without college degrees. If you want real security without the hassle of a four year degree, being a tradesman is a smart move. I'm a carpenter, and there's no way AI take over my job, at least within my lifetime. I'd imagine the same can be said for most skills, excluding things like fabrication and automotive work, wich could theoretically be impacted by AI.

Many tech leaders have signed a letter condemning it.

So buy an AI to work for you and you get to collect its salary. The more AI you can afford the more money you make. That would be one way to do it.

I think it'll be more then 50% of lost jobs. but it really doesn't have to if ppl just did it ourselves.

I mean it is literally in his best financial interest to convince people that AI is the future. Although I agree, I'm not sure if it's good to take his opinion on this? Plus, what type of jobs does he thinks they're going to take, because it's definitely not labor jobs, it'll be desk jobs. Also, this argument was made about tractors when farming took off, but those jobs that were lost made room for new jobs.

This can only go so far… we see AI on calls and that’s not good. They can’t deal with adjustments. They only do well if you stick to a script. My life isn’t TAILORED MADE so for me & most of the world like me. Well past

Maybe AI should replace the investors!

When AI makes lawyers redundant then we have human progress

Read Kai-Fu Lee’s book during the pandemic. Excellent read, but scary.

One thing we could do to protect ourselves is learning how to disable AI The reality is that they already told us about AI trying to "replace" us even Elon Musk said it's dangerous. That being said they are still go ahead with it and that right there shows where we stand. The internet ruined so much of are human value it's sad. AI will make us realize how useless we've become allowing machines to take over and we sit here and take it. It's time for a new revolution we must stand up and we the people must unite against things that are a huge threat... One word Greed!!!
