    Wait till bad actors harness AI. There will be all types of new scams. Job loss will be significant. IBM is pausing 7800 jobs that could be replaced by AI overtime.

    Lawyers, Loan officers, etc are fucked. Within a decade if not 5 years.

    You forgot one thing: the government. They'll regulate the fuck out of it.

    They love to list lawyers on this list, but what they really mean is paralegal and low-level associate volume work. The judgment isn't there yet for a real lawyer. Accountants? Much more vulnerable. Traders and Finance Bros? Already happening. Fake conservative debaters on anonymous internet message boards? Already happening. And as I said long ago, coders are also on the hook. The AI can or will be able to code better than people.

    It technically has the ability to replace everybody. It won't. We're freaking out again like it's Y2K, which turned out to be a nothing sandwich.

    Can't stop progress. The benies will outweigh the costs. May as well sit back and enjoy it and let @oregonblitzkrieg rant about it wherever he ran off to. Maybe this is the beginning of a technological evolutionary pivot Marx envisioned as giving birth to his socialist paradise where scarcity is eliminated. @UW_Doog_Bot ?

    What benefits to humans does replacing everyone bring?

    Isn't the logical step to kill all the unnecessary people? Are any people necessary?

    I'm hearing it might be able to one day replace the guys directing traffic for the guys who lay down flooring.

    Just what I'm hearing.

    Low level repetitive processes will go first. Paralegal stuff.

    Same will be true in accounting. Bookkeepers will go bye bye.

    The 5 year window is about right. It won’t take 10 years. The pace at which things are moving is crazy.

    In things like legal and finance, higher level professionals will use AI as a supplement to their work. Those that don’t will get toasted.




    Yeah my previous comment was a bit hyperbolic.

    This will just further emphasize the need to solve problems, fast, and the turn key positions in most fields will be what is replaced.

    Many people will love the tools long term.

    Still something that society will need to deal with, in one form or another.
    Agree. There's no stopping it. And the benies are potentially huge. I already have a loved one who benefits critically from AI as it exists today. The fuck am I going to support slowing it down. Bring it on. If I have to learn to do something else, so be it.

    Creep gets it.

    Im also not convinced that the AI is sophisticated as it's being claimed to be

    I use ChatGPT for some things at work, as should anyone with half a brain. It has obvious limitations.

    It's a useful tool. But it's more like a calculator than it is a human brain

    Thud.

    Replaced is replaced.

    We may finally be witnessing the decline of Racebannon. Real Race would never reach for that one.
