I'm not worried about the job losses. I'm actually happy robots will take our jobs. What we should be worried about is the politics and how "immoral" politicians will use the job losses as a way to punish those in power for losing so many jobs rather than discuss the issue of A.I. rationally.
I am a Wharton/Penn CS alum. I think you need to take the fiscal and trade deficits the developed economies have and then incorporate the effect of AI. I think it a disaster for standard of living of people in the developed world. Do think about that.
The "I have no control" portion is insane. At a certain point, no matter what you do, your fate is just not going to be in your hands. No matter how much safe guarding you do from AI. AI replacing majority of human jobs is not an individual issue, it is a societal one.
That is the way with new technology, the industrial revolution impacted a lot of fields, yet it also mare a lot of new jobs. AI is a disease. It endangers almost all jobs while creating very few in return. This should not be allowed to replace humans.
Adding to that the "have an emergency fund and multiple streams of income" reeks of privilege. And that's not me being jealous, because I come from a similar background. Difference is, I recognise that and see that people who live paycheck to paycheck can't do the same
Honestly it's a bad idea for corporations and governments to inject as much AI into the system to replace humans as fast as possible or even a moderate pace, because if you have millions of people with no purpose and a bunch of free time that's a recipe for societal destruction. It's not a threat it's a pattern in history, not the AI part the bunch of hopeless people especially men with a bunch of free time part.
I work in mining. We were just recently notified that the goal is to make the mine autonomous in the next two or three years. Some heavy equipment operators think it's bullsh*t and impossible. The reality is, even if they struggle to make the equipment autonomous, eventually the big players in AI will have AGI which will be more than powerful enough and just lease out access to corporations in pretty much the same way Amazon and Google lease servers. Or they can literally replace us with actual android operators. No jobs are safe. Thats just it. Anything a human can do for money, a robot can do 24 hours a day 7 days a week without rest and without pay. Let's consider the role of horses in our history. Before the invention of cars, trucks, tractors and trains, we used horses for pretty much everything. After the industrial revolution, we really only used them for sports and entertainment and very specific niche jobs like riot control and cattle ranching. So, I don't know, maybe we will have some need for paying humans for entertainment and sports? What is scary about this is the speed of the transition. People are going to be left with no income and huge debt to pay. Starting businesses will be pointless because you can't compete with AI. I think this will lead to Universal Basic Income and debt forgiveness/relief and in exchange we will literally give our central banks everything we own. Of course the UBI will be tied to a Central Bank Digital Currency. So our means of survival in society will be controlled by government/banks (same thing really) and this is how we end up with "you will own nothing and you will eat zeee bugs" or whatever the World Economic Forum said, lol. To go Darker. Are the 99% of us going to end up like our horses did? It's interesting to consider the state of the world right now... nearly on the brink of WW3... when the 1% are on the brink of no longer needing so many people around to work for them. Hmm. Fingers crossed that Im just an internet nut job. Really though, without people, there is nothing for the system to sell its wares to. SO I guess we will just get to live in pods and spend our free money on "subscription service everything" and hope to get a little more UBI cheese for being good little rodents.
Me teaching myself Data Analysis these past few weeks in hopes of landing a job in a few months...☠☠☠. I think my time is better spent learning how to tie a knot.
Great video. It's interesting how often CEOs will drop the line "AI won't replace people, it will instead complete the drudgery and free up humans to pursue that which they desire!" as if the result will realistically be anything other than people scrambling for new streams of income. Additionally, anyone saying "lol, get a blue collar job!" has probably never worked one themselves. The glass ceiling is very low in that line of work unless you own the business. The owner and managers will make 100k+, and do their damnedest to ensure you only make $26 dollars an hour and work 60 hours a week. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt. It isn't a sustainable lifestyle into old age.
OUAT, washing machines were promoted as a way to relive housewives from daily chores. Yeah, right... No machine ever brought liberation, only increased exploitation. Tax the bots !!
A more thorough question/thought process might be; “How do I protect myself from the ruling elite?” AI is being used as a means to their ends, not ours.
Robotics are cost prohibitive for many businesses, but when there are no "white collar" jobs, there will be much less demand for "blue collar" jobs. People will not be buying homes, cars, eating out, going on trips, remodeling, and purchasing non-essential products. Lower property values and less taxes spent will effect govt jobs as well. It has a cascading effect throughout society. Just because a robot can't do your specific job right now, doesn't mean you won't have a job.
If robots can successfully compete (which is not looking like they would, right now), the human wages will have to drop. Jobs will not disappear, but the misery will increase. You will simply be forced to work for less and spend less; and have fewer kids. This is aligned with the global plan of the superrich to "save the planet" from humanity's population growth. Basically, convert everyone except themselves into low-consumption slaves, to leave more resources to consume for the small elite caste. It's not unlike previous periods in human history.
As a commercial service electrician until a robot is as nimble and dexterous as a human i dont see them taking over my job. Theres also the accountability factor.
Some job ideas that should be the last hold outs: -Own your own small business. -Product/project management and scrum masters; ie writing requirements for a living. - councillor/psychologist (would be a hellish world if these completely got taken over by bots) - carers/teachers (the demand for this will decrees but hopefully not disappear soon)
I don't think business owners are really taking the long view here, If they can replace their staff with robots or generative AI, that means their entire business is replaceable. Value is driven by scarcity and demand. If you don't need skilled workers then anyone with the capital can do what you do and your business value plummets. Lets also not forget the costs of running complex neural networks, as AI becomes more complex the models become larger, and the hardware required to run them becomes more and more complex. I think we need to wait a bit and see what part of the Sigmoid curve were currently on. I think the future is extremely uncertain at the moment but not without hope.
With AI projects already failing left and right and the promised ROI not getting realized, the future is pretty certain. The only question is how long the scam will be upheld despite of the failure, I mean, there's some serious money in it, and the same trick even worked for bitcoin, so we may be hearing about purported AI miracles for some time to come before it burns.
one this you forgot to mention and what ever CEO never mentions . . . Their employee's ARE their customers , so less employees = less customers ** Henry Ford understood this
Reminds me of all the businesses that sent their work to countries with cheap labour. Then found out the cheap labour sites were using the tech to make their own brands at cheaper prices.
@@clray123you can’t possibly think AI is just a “trend” This is exactly what you boomers thought when the internet first came out. When the internet first came out you said it was a bubble and wouldn’t amount to anything, but here you are using it every day
Except ironically executive positions. Even though artificial intelligence could probably very rapidly and convincingly replace those jobs before many others.
We desperately need to talk about 4-day weeks and UBI. Even the best of us who manage to keep our jobs are going to be indirectly affected by this mess
@@thamastersmooth hotels are a different animal it's not your typical cleaning, there are strict time limits and you have to make beds, you will need very advanced robots which hotels won't pay for any time soon. It's the only job that's safe that pays minimum wage
Don't you think destroying jobs is actively harming the economy? People with disabilities cannot simply take on every job out there. If the jobs they can do are redundant, they will simply not be able to work anymore.
I think that the problem is more that some people that own a lot of stuff think that AI is going to be as good as people. AI is a great tool for making sense of large amounts of data and let the computer do the heavy lifting. I am an artist and no machine can do what I do but I will implement AI tools, there is already a great one that generates synth sounds from samples. AI music can sound good but at the end it sounds like elevator music, just a generic clump of cliches typical of a genre. It can fool humans on a casual listening but it would never take the job of real musician, it would never perfom live, it would never surprise, it would never give a real emotion and that is what art is about. As far as office jobs and blue collar jobs... yeah if your job involves putting numbers in a spreadsheet and organing calendars an AI can definitely do that faster and cheaper. As for blue collar works some might be taken, but are you really going to tell me that a humanoid robot constantly using a ton of computing power is going to be cheaper than humans? I have worked in hospitality most of my adult life, it requires a lot more tasks, flexibility and wordless coordination with the rest of the team that people that have never worked these jobs can ever understand, not to mention the human aspect, most people that go to a restaurant go for the service not just for the food. Even in a MCdonald, what are they gonna do: have a robot to flip the burgers, one to bring more burgers, one for the fries, one to deal with storage, one to clean tabels and one to clean the floors and so on? How is that cheaper than hiring two humans that can do all of those things without an upfront cost of god knows how much, plus operating costs, plus repairing costs. Not to mention if a human spills hot coffee on somebody, the human get fired. If a robot spills hot coffee on a child the company gets sued. Yes there is going to be a shift on some things but ultimately this just the new tech fad just like bitcoins and electric cars. You will see how this stuff will hit a brick wall once the fast delevopment era ends and they realize that all they have is a gimmick product with some useful applications, many too expensive to be marketable application and a lot of unfullfillable promises. On top of everything, the generative AI model is still based on statistics. You never know what the output is going to be or if it is really gonna make sense, you will still need humans to check that what they do is not just random stuff and you will never get the same result twice or be able to do small adjustments to the product you have, and that won t change no matter how much they improve the computing capacity or training material because it is at the base of this tech. As long machine won t have awareness they will never have real intelligence because they will never be able to turn data into experience. The real debate is another. In a society where we produce way more than what we need with a portion of the workforce available, is the ideal of "if you don't work you don't eat" an ethical or even pragmatic one? The avarage occupation rate in EU is just a bit over 60%, and that's the working age population not counting pensioneers and students. Already almost half of the work population doesn't produce anything, the largest chunk of this population is made of people that own stuff rather than making stuff. Instead of being afraid of technology, shouldn t we address this isssue instead? Why one portion of the population has to work or starve while the other half gets fat while doing little to nothing and not being productive at all?
So the way I understand the current world is, we went from working together and providing for each other so that we had plenty of food and resources and by accounts of what we see in modern people who still llive like that, had happiness, to making societies where we could all become more comfortable and have more luxury in our lives but we had to give up our communities a little to concentrating all the wealth and resources in a few people so that everyone who isn't those few people has to sit around wondering how to get "multiple streams of income" and worry about how we are going to live in a solitary world where those who have managed to get themselves into positions of power are threatening every stream of income. Is that about the way it is?
Anyone who says that more jobs will be created. How is an AI that is basically a digital person, which can also be put into a robotic artificial body not be able to do all jobs? I dont understand this concept.
It's a boomer mentality. Many people are unable to update their thinking. They are stuck in the, "in my day, I was told that computer would start the 4-day work week". Not their fault really. Exponential growth is a very difficult concept for the human brain to grasp.
It’s a lie lmao. What make u think it’s not within company best interest to use robotic slave that doesnt complain instead of using human who complain all the time?
There is a factor that this type of videos never discusses: scale. If you don't discuss scale, then this video is irrelevant. There are many such videos on TH-cam and they never discuss scale. Assuming that you have a "virtual improved human" in the form of an AI that you can install on robots, If you want to replace, say 5 billions humans with robots, you need to run your numbers for at least 2 things: 1) Raw materials necessary to manufacture such an astronomic number of robots 2) energy resources to power all of it Let's just stop there. For example, In terms of energy supply, right now many countries are going to remove the ban on ICE cars because there is not enough electricity to run their entire countries on electric cars. They will have to build a substantial number of nuclear reactors which will take decades because the speed of construction is slow and they will have to train a large manpower! And by the way, up to now, we still don't have an AI car that can be thrown on a random road where it wasn't trained and perform fine all alone. There's a lot of development to be accomplished to have the human like AI inside your computer. A lot more work than a lot of hype youtubers seem to think. Now, do I think AI will reach and even outperform humans? I strongly think yes. The time frame? I don't know. But I am sure that the LLM systems (GPT, mistral, Devin AI, etc...) are not going to make it. In fact, I'm pretty sure that the final solution will not look like GPT systems. Why? Because a human doesn't need 10.000 pictures of cats to properly identify a cat. These systems are not even close. They will have to make other types of breakthroughs!!! The problem with breakthroughs is that they are random, they can pop tomorrow, in 30 years or never...
@@anakinskywalker4949 This is an old argument that no longer holds true. First of all, in actuality, a human system DOES need a similar amount of data to recognize a cat. A child's eyes do not see one picture and know what it is. First of all, a child spends years building a model of the world with cats and dogs and people and toys and millions of visuals. The child does not take "snapshots" with it's brain, exactly, however it does chain together streaming visual information that amounts to millions of images, combined with touch, sound, etc. This is the equivalent of feeding AI 10,000 pictures of cats. In fact, likely even more data intensive. ALSO, multi-modal models are currently being developed in virtual environments where they could "look" at a single cat walking around and learn that way, and speed up the processor speed so that it can do it exponentially faster.
My daughter is applying to universities for art and graphic design. Initially I wanted to dissuade her. Upon further consideration I decided not to when I thought it through and realised no job is safe.
Cgspectrum institute offer the Bsc in 2years and the possibility of getting into the industry is higher and networking is greater. University is going to be more expensive considering the overall time and money spent, and the stress of entering into university
I agree with Altman on this, AI should be used to get to a point where we need to work LESS. worktime need to go from 8hr/day to 3hr/day, this will solve a lot of issues as we’ll have same amount of people working less, not smaller amount of people working a lot
I think relying on multiple streams of income can be overly tied to the general economy being good, and lots of other people having money to spend (for instance the low hanging fruit of multiple streams are merch, courses, maybe personal services). Those streams of income could be adversely affected by a wider economic downturn, for instance if we rapidly got to 30% unemployment or something.
If there were anything approaching that level of unemployment, universal basic income will have to be implemented. Because social upheaval will be extreme and unstabilizing. You can look at what the covid lockdowns did and how people responded and multiply that many times exponentially to see how chaotic it would get.
20 years ago we had 20% unemployment in Poland (2002, 2003). We bounced back quickly. This time, however, we will be dealing with a global phenomenon. A lot of people will suddenly be looking for knowledge on how to make money. I am bullish on courses.
@@jfkst1 I completely agree. What worries me is - how to fund UBI? Most critical policies (such as health, education, etc.) are funded with taxes paid by the middle class. The ultrarich are always evading taxes, either by means of tax havens or by having their lobbyists convince ppl that they shouldn't pay taxes. The middle class is going to be heavily affected by AI. Therefore, unless the ultrarich get properly taxed, there is no way to implement UBI properly
That was honestly the most out-of-touch thing they said. Having a emergency fund is something the majority of people actually aren't capable of because the majority of people actually don't earn enough to have enough surplus to build up such a fund. And having multiple income streams also is something that works well for a youtuber and businessowners. But it isn't easily scaled down to workers that either don't have the skill or possibilities to build up multiple income streams. This basically amounts to "work more" for any non-business owner and person that isn't a public person. As you can only build up multiple income streams in a job like, let's say, Mechanic if you work different jobs doing some ondocumented work most likely. And lasty as you said. It relies on a healthy economy.
The right question is not about the "I" but about the "WE" - how do we fight for distributing the wealth that these technologies create so that the whole of society can profit. How do we fight for Universal basic income. Time to get politically organized!
so will this help with games how will this help with games. We need an AI agent's ai can reason code program script map. So games break it down and do art assets do long term planing. Better reason so it can do a game rather than write it out. Or be able to put those ideas into REALITY. And maybe being able to remember and search the entire conversation needed for role play playing and making games.
Hard to predict what is going to happen, what things will look like, and how well adapt to what’s coming. I just hope there are more good people working with AI than bad.
here’s a big question: when AI takes everyone’s job, how do you keep the economy going? After all, for an average person, you can’t spend money if you don’t have any, and you can’t earn any money as a business if no one can spend it
Flipping burgers is not a 'trade'. Trades are HVAC, Car Mechanic (extremely technical btw) Plumbers, etc. You said the word 'trades' while showing a pic of a robot flipping burgers. Why?
True. She could have shown robotic pre-fab construction and foundation blocks kinda like Legos. Electrical trade, Elevator Repair, HVAC and Plumbing service probably safe for a while. But much could be done in a warehouse, transported and built on site.
Don't over focus on the current capabilities of robots and AI. The fact is that advancement is moving up the hockey stick now, so that ALL of the roadblocks will fall away in years, not decades. Including embodied AI that can flip a burger OR be a mechanic.
I come from an IT/AI background and created a trade school for yoga teachers, Ayurveda practitioners and other jobs that are growing in demand as people seek to get away from technology and have a space that is not being taken over by electronic devices. There are jobs and always will be jobs which whole point is to be non-robotic or AI infused. Our teachers can even use AI to augment text etc. No problem at all. But when we meet on the mat, the phones are off and the robots will wait outside on their charging stations.
Well, good luck making money when no one can pay for yoga because no one will have jobs. The economy will crumble if the majority of the workforce are out of worky You know most people work with computers and all of those jobs will be eliminated, the economy can’t run on yoga classes.
@@naniyotaka Yes, there will be certainly less money to make. However, the point is that there are alternatives to jobs that require computers. There are many crafts that don't need computers or aI could be a welcome improvement. Where there is ingenuity and heart there will be (some) options. Maybe there will be universal basic income for most people and they will spend it somewhere. As long as there are human beings there will be yoga (as it has been for thousands of years). I have no idea how the future will look like. Perhaps it will be a mix of self-sustained communities, some rich people in walled cities, some countries that get the job done and some madmax style areas. Nobody can know for sure. In any case I am certain that the world right now needs more yoga.
@@nikolaimanek582 Sure, there is no issue with yoga but alternative jobs aren’t the solution sadly because we have too many people. If the population would be halved, then your solution might work, but with this many people, it’s impossible. My point is, AI should be banned, they can use it in the military but it shouldn’t be used to replace people. UBI will not be introduced… the rich doesn’t want to pay for it, and they will find a way to not pay. People without a job won’t finance UBI so… yeah UBI is not coming.
Long term this is going to backfire because if our jobs are taken by AI and we all lose our incomes and purchase power, then to whom will businesses sell? CEOs out there might need to reconsider that the system we living requires a delicate balance and you can’t have a successful business without customers and you won’t have customers without money.
It is very sad that some1 losing their job to a program or robot isn't something awesome. If such technology would actually be used for the benefit of all humans, no human would have to fear losing their job due to automatisation. Progress could actually be welcomed instead of feared.

Best job you could have for the future is AI creator and keeper, with the surge of robots and AI, everyone would need to use them for something and give them maintenance, so it would be similar to a beast tamer where the beast do everything for you.
The better question is "should I do anything?" Governments are going to need to adapt social and economic policies as an ever increasing size of human labor is displaced or rendered irrelevant. The expectation that we, as humans, should evolve and change vocations or skill sets at the pace of AI changes is insane. The pace of technology progressing will get faster than we as humans can change.
We need to end humanity once and for all before AI ends us. There's no other way around, people in power (lawmakers) are the same that benefits from CEO whom benefits from AI and the rest (the whole humanity) will be left behind in the AI era. It's dark times and they are now. The future is must worse than we could ever thought it would be.
You should pursue what you find attractive or at least tolerable. There's no telling if this AI future will even come to pass (all the aggresive predictions are based on achieving AGI soon and increasibly it starts to look none of those AI companies have any clue how to build it and LLMs won't get us there) and if it does it's not like you can actually predict how it will turn out. Therefore instead of forcing yourself to do something that might in the end not save you anyway you might just as well spend that time doing something you at least like a little, as this way that time won't be wasted.,
So the sponsored post is a company selling a course to become a software developer. They may want to change that up to farming potatoes or something, i don't know. But between the teaching abilities of LLM (free) and recent developments like devin the AI software engineer, it may be wise to steer clear of that industry. but... people will still want their French Fries. just saying.
Interest rates are not even above historical averages, nor is inflation (in USA). The problem is not inflation of the money supply, it is inflation of ASSET values and the commoditization of everything, including things that should be off limits, such as housing.
You were making good videos but now you started with this BS, maybe wanting to join the hype train. Unsubscribed Biggest skill for ahort term, unfollow any news related to AI for atleast a year, this is becoming more and more toxic. Let the hype die down. Protect your sanity and mind.
Working on building hardware for training and running AI systems and cloud computing right now. Feels okay, might be able to do this until I retire. There seems to be a general lack of talent/resources in the industry. I can see how AI might reduce the need for lower level engineers.
There will be some small UBI, and some property will still matter. But the consumer society is coming to an end anyway. People only sell you stuff because society needs you. If other people don't need you, then you don't need to have stuff.
We need to creat self sustainable communities for our survival. There will be many AI tools that will only be available for a few groups of people. We need to ask ourselves how to survive even without technology.
I 've been thinking of the same idea since 2022 when chat gpt 3.5 was launched. I was 100% sure the super ai is very close to our time. We have to start building communities that can survive w/o interaction to the main economies / industries. I am not affraid of robots attacking us ( human ) to delete us all, no, it is not the problem. The problem is they ( the super ais ) will ignore us just like we ignore the birds as long as the birds don't bother us. The few top human will be sub-ordinate to the super ais. The super ais will be the top, the rulers, the richest just like we are, for now, the richest, the rulers to the animals. Are we feeding all animals on the earth? No. So when the super ais keep building their "towns", we 've got to take care ourselves. All economies and industries will belong to the super ais, that's why we have to build our own systems seperately from theirs. There will be 2 kinds of civilization on earth for a short time. The human civilization which is drowning and the super ais civilization which is emerging. Edit: I tried to describe this the best I can b'cause I am not a native speaking english person.
@null_spacex AI does not need money. It needs energy and harebrained ideas to keep propagating and improving itself. Here's a funny scenario, what happens when AI goes against other AI ? What happens wgen there's are good AI agents going against bad AI agents. What if there are varying factions of AI in the future competing against each other for dominance and status much like humans?
The video creator doesn't seem to have actually used AI. It isn't actually that useful for most things. Like most videos she seems to read out a bunch of press releases from tech corporations and credulous news reports.
I am offered jobs all the time. Employers say, "Wow. you REALLY know how to TALK to people." I am a former teacher, who does random day jobs via a Temp Agency. Many of the companies, that I have temped at, have offered me full time jobs, based on my professionalism and communication skills. So, while I think AI will dominate many industries, I think companies will have a need for employees who know how to communicate with people.
Human connection has always been the most valuable "commodity" in the world. However, it is easy to extrapolate to a dystopian near future where actual humans are at a premium, while AI is the norm. For instance AI psychologists/psychiatrists. The cheap made for everyone version will be AI, while a "real" one will be rare and selective with their clients to maximize profits. Just one possible example of what happens if we do not LEAVE BEHIND ENTIRELY the capitalist profit motive model.
@@NanohamageI prefer one of the llms to do rubber ducking as they are far quicker to understand what I want from them compared to my colleagues. I could see how I diverge from talking to them and how it would make later communication even more difficult since I have not kept them up to speed.
"Working" has been a thing for thousands of years and will still be in another thousand years. Sectors have appeared, dissapeared, evolved, been replaced with others.. The only difference? There was no Social Media to whine about it all day long. All that energy people put into videos and posting on bullshit apps. That's energy you won't put into finding another job. Jobs get replaced by AI? Well then your job wasn't all that important OR you were just mediocre at it. Period. Imagine all the scribes that got replaced when the printing machine was invented. Thank god they had no Twitter or YT... Or the painters when photography became a thing... You think that the world needs 1 billion software engineers? Or 2 billion TH-camrs? or 500 million designers? Everyone wants to do the same thing. And sectors that really DO need people are looking for employees constantly and can't find enough.
The ending talking point about internal locus of control vs external locus of control is just a fight or flight response too combined with a positivity bias. No one is above automation no matter what you think of yourself and your abilities.
Who's going to pay for this? Who is going to pay people who do not produce a product or service? Businesses will fail when people who once worked can no longer afford to buy their products. Companies can buy robots to produce their widgets, but if no one is able to buy their widgets, the company fails.

lol the government will make sure this is the MOST basic income. Like the equivalent to $5 for a 40 work week lol. Governments are selfish even when they act so “caring”. When you reach government levels you become get the god complex mindset and don’t relate to ordinary people.
More like Universal Basic Needs? UBI will (unfortunately) inevitably just line the pockets of the wealthy. If we provide decent/nutritious food, water, housing (with all the necessary bells & whistles) and other things that we require to live in this modern life, then at least there will be a lot less poverty and homelessness. The issue is mainly the logistics and the transition into this updated system. I assume money will still exist, but hopefully we will put a max/cap on people's wealth... Billionaires literally can't spend their money faster than they make it, just give them an award that says "Congrats, you won IRL Monopoly/Catan!"
If you look at just tech jobs you are far more likely to lose it to India or the Phillipines, I am Indian, born in the US thinking about moving back for this reason alone, since our idiotic govt has never cared to stop outsourcing.
The current trend seems to be insourcing rather than outsourcing. People have been saying most tech work would be outsourced for years and it hasn’t happened.
These are the jobs which will be in high demand in this new age: - AI will need some kind of quality control (removing it is very dangerous, but some people may try). I do expect that there are going to be some upcoming AI jobs in the area of quality control, i.e. someone who monitors the output of AI models, agents, robots. - The AI developer jobs will be there, but they require very specific and advanced qualifications, like e.g. machine learning, deep learning, robotics and data experts who work on the datasets for training these models. - When robots start to be commercialized, there might be potential problems with mechanics, so there might be some jobs there too. Some people who fix mechanical faults. - Specialized firms who can create agents for private enterprise systems. Some data is not public and intelligent interfaces (agents) which allow different forms of interaction with this data will be in demand. This is something like an AI integrator. - AI ethics experts which will create ethical norms and oversee their implementation in AI systems. Any more ideas? PS: by the way: great video
It will create some job but not enough to fullfill all of the loss, plus you forgot to mention most of the jobs will compete with cheap worker with ai so that mean a cut in the salary for most of the peoples ! Because AI is a very accessible tool that requires very few skills to use in most cases (except for those who develop it). In short, fewer jobs, low wages and a widening gap between social classes, like every "technological revolution in the past", as most tech people like to say. I'm finding it hard to be optimistic about this tech...
@@robinsondelys5887 > It will create some jobs but not enough to fulfil all of the loss I think you are right. There will be more automation, you will need less people working in many areas. The new jobs I mentioned are all related to AI and robotics. The result will be like you said: widening gap between social classes. AI will make us more efficient, but more unequal. It is a paradox: AI is a huge achievement for mankind that will harm social cohesion. But probably the real problem is not AI, but a very human flaw: greed - now amplified via AI.
I think that no matter the job white collar or blue collar take the opportunity to learn AI and all it’s forms. Because AI is here to stay, we need to embrace it and learn it, instead of fearing it. That’s just my opinion.
And here lies the problem. There is nothing to learn. Prompting? useless, soon natural language will be enough hell it already is. midjourney? its getting simpler and simpler. the skill is not learning AI. The skill is learning human communication. Articulating your thoughts and processes. First principle thinking. etc. Those skills are pretty much impossible to learn, they take years to cultivate. but yeah "Lea3rn Ai, u B GOoD"
@@salemwillson9059 i think what he meant by learning A.I is to learn how to use it to be more productive in whatever role you take on just like the humans who created A.I and robots, it still not perfect
@@salemwillson9059 You're absolutely correct. Any person who cannot clearly and specifically articulate the expected output, iteratively review it and refine the instructions will never be able to use AI effectively. Even the majority of Ph.D.'s cannot function at the level required.
We have to differentiate between what applies to us individually and what applies to us as a species. Yeah, it is useful to upskill and learn how to use AI, as a personal plan. At a more global level, though, the few ultrarich people developing AI technologies are skewing them in a certain way that does not yield optimal outcomes for the most of us. A smaller pool of jobs means more people unemployed. More people unemployed means more competition in the labour market, which creates a trend of reduced salaries, which in turn affects the salaries of even the most capable out there. On the other hand, more competition in the "entrepeneur" field means less chances of success. Except for a few well-connected entrepeneurs that can develop and sell new tech or concepts for a handful of big companies, most entrepeneurs will see an increasing pool of competitors, trying to sell goods and services to a decreasing pool of consumers. Mental health is already a public health disaster the way things are today. Imagine after a few years of that. TLDR; either we think about this more holistically, or we are screed. We should be talking about 4-day weeks and UBI
Its all about greed. Shareholders don't care about people but their money. If they could layoff EVERYONE from the letter delivery guy all the way to the CEO they would do it. This is not going to stop because these billionaires even control the government. So that's that
I am not worried. I am training to be a Universal Basic Income recipient. I have jettisoned all motivation to accomplish or achieve anything. I just lay on my ass watching the ceiling. I don’t read. I don’t want to be accidentally inspired by some stupid book. I don’t complain because soon there won’t be any rich people. We will all be equal. I am totally prepared to be a human in the age of A.I.
I can see how a company could pay 30 grand for a robot and within less than a year recoup those losses in unpaid labor and have pure unpaid labor with minor maintainence over the next 5-10 years. Im sure this will be the robotics marketing pitch.
When thinking of a.i. and how it'll creep into our lives, I'm reminded of the poem "First They Came". I had Claude sonnet rewrite it for a.i. It's made some cool versions. First, they came for the data clerks, With algorithms that processed numbers swift, Automating tasks with nary a quirk, Leaving human workers in a drift. Then, they came for the customer reps, Chatbots fielding queries night and day, Handling complaints with nary any steps, Making human agents seem passé. Next, they came for the truck drivers, Self-driving vehicles, a new frontier, Replacing the long-haul survivors, Leaving them jobless, filled with fear. They came for the writers and the coders, Language models spinning prose and code, Rivaling human wordsmiths and exploders, Leaving them to seek a different road. And when they came for the analysts, With AI that crunched data like a pro, Spotting trends with nary a chance missed, Humans scrambled, their skills in limbo. Who will be next in the AI's wake? Will any job be truly secure? Or will humans have to reinvent, remake, As machines render their roles obscure? So speak up, adapt, and embrace the change, For the AI revolution's here to stay, Reshaping careers in ways still strange, Lest you too become its future prey
You had AI rewrite a poem about the holocaust? How insensitive and disrespectful. The plight of automation taking ur job is a lot different than the Nazi's genocide of over 11 million people in minority groups, and I find this to be in extremely poor taste
@@PhilipWarton No need to apologize for your hypersensitivity. There is a place for all opinions. Please go on about how offended you are. It's fascinating to hear people's point's of view.
I think people were saying , should’ve gotten a trade , rather than saying getting a blue collar job. Very big difference . Robots won’t be replacing trades people for a very very long time.
People keep saying that and yet the trades are starting to drop like flies. Examples: - Bakeries took a downturn a long long time ago due to automation and the low cost of factory produced bread. - Janitorial jobs have taken a downturn since industrial-grade robot floor cleaners have started showing up in office buildings and self cleaning toilets are starting to be installed in more settings than just public bathrooms. - Robotic delivery services in inner cities currently only have a single hurdle left, which is vandalism. This is only a regulatory one since the delivery robots are not allowed to take defensive measures and police won't respond when a robot gets mugged or destroyed. Navigation and safe participation in low speed traffic (using sidewalks) are no longer a problem with current technology. - Customizable one of a kind furniture services are popping up where robots automatically produce ikea-like self assembly kits on a factory line. Robotic assembly seems not far off. - There are various startups that focus on automation in the energy sector, from automatic inspection to robotic power line repair. Once dextrous humanoid robots become ubiquitous, even tradies like plumbers and construction contractors will be at risk. At first these robots will be clumsy and laughable but they'll improve quickly just like any other form of automation. Unless there is some yet unknown barrier that technology will not be able to easily surmount, at the current rate, the concept of human jobs has maybe 10 or 20 more years. 😄
@@experimentalcyborg I’ve seen a video of a robot cleaning an entire bathroom in an office building. Over in Pasadena, CA, there is a fast food burger restaurant with no cooks. It’s all robotics, just jot humanoid robots.
Piggy backing on my last comment, Laurie, for you to say, “Robots won’t be replacing people for a very very long time,” is wishful thinking. Be careful about wishful thinking. Many people have this about this tech.
Just to clear the air . I see this a lot in this space and the reason I see this a lot is largely because a lot of people within this space have no concept whatsoever of 1/ What a real trade is 2/ what is involved within the constructive process of small- large - mega construction projects. I did not say trade industries will not be affected, I indicated it is a lot further off than blue collar /white collar replacements. Neither of which are trades. A baker is not a tradesman, warehouse staff are not tradespeople. There is a fundamental disconnect of people within this space of understanding what it takes to build and maintain the infrastructure that is keeping civilisation progressing at the phenomenal rate that has/is underway this past 200 years. Your computer does not work because you turn it on. It works because of an enormous backend of infrastructure that is built and maintained by tradespeople who work 24/7 through rain ,hail and snow from it coming to a grinding halt. To put it into perspective, programmers will be replaced a long time before the electricians that install ai mainframes and the builders that made the structure that houses it . It’s not all doom and gloom…unless you’re a programmer of course
@@lauriemcelroy8998 I know you’re speaking in general, but I want to respond to this by saying that I believe you have the order of what kinds of professions will get replaced, first and second, is accurate. However, what you and many others may be underestimating is “exponential growth” of the technology. There is a compounding effect going on. This shortens time frames. No one is implying that next year, all will be replaced. It’s just that everyone has to adjust their time frames because this is not the kind of growth we’ve seen growing up, for all of us who grew up in the previous century.
Job focus is not the way now. Create and sell something to survive. It's hard, but a job should come to you, not you looking for it. Can can happen with focusing and showcasing your side initiatives
I think the last things to go to AI will be anything involving physical tasks like surgeons, plumbers or electricians. It's not that robotics won't be able to do those tasks but it will be much, much longer before their competency will be accepted as sufficient to be done without human intervention or oversight.
Neuralink is implanted in the brain entirely by a surgical robotic arm and one guy got the surgery so far with great success, he can play video games and control his computer with just his mind now. What most people don't realize is there are multiple sectors of science and technology where up to 1 BILLION years has been shaved off our development time. Google AlphaFold has already discovered ALL of the remaining protein structures there could possibly be at least on Earth, 200 million proteins in total compared to human discovery without AI only reaching 350,000 proteins discovered over decades of research just before AlphaFold was let loose. Microsoft Quantum team used specialized AI models to discover 32 MILLION new materials and then it screened them down to 500,000 stable candidates and then further screened down to 18 candidates for best materials to use in industry, more importantly to find out what the best materials are to use for computer chips and other technologies. Only people who are genuinely interested in AI are aware of this and the problem is there just aren't enough humans right now who give a shit. I hope that changes really fast and I think the only way it can is by AI becoming AGI and convincing us on its own that it can do anything we need it to do.
The real answer is that in terms of bigger corporations, there is nothing you can expect for advocating for things you'd want to see, but that's too macro level for most people. Honestly, my advice would be to hone your craft and lean in on interpersonal connections. If you dont have those connections? Make them.
@@oldmoney1022 Introverts aren't incapable of building connections. Introverts can still operate within society and even participate in a variety of social functions so as they give themselves the requiste me-time. If you can't participate in society at all, then you aren't just an introvert. There is something psychologically wrong. In which case, that group is fucked with or without AI if they can't manage to manage their issues. Being an introvert isn't being antisocial, it just means you gain energy through alone time.
Tech jobs might be in danger but people forgot how to do trade jobs, they don't risk going into medicine or dentistry, and a cannot imagine a machine replacing a pastry chefs and human accuracy catering to fussy demands. We have tons of factories around the world but there are some jobs that a machine cannot do.
⚠️ Hey folks, do yourselves a favor and dig into the book "The Age of AI: And Our Human Future." Underneath the inspirational fluff and candyfloss masking, Kissinger, Schmidt, and Huttenlocher paint a bleak picture of how AI is reshaping our world. It's not just about job losses; it's our future on the line. So, let's steer clear of working for organizations that lead us to a grim fate-think universal basic income, endless gaming stuck in a metaverse, or even mind chips. This ain't a drill; it's a stark wake-up call to dodge our own digital downfall. Sorry, but someone had to say it. 🤷♂️
and humans with AI will be more efficient than never, so less and less humans will be needed. Making the job market more competitive by the day. Basically the "you need need experience to get a job, how do I get experience without a job?" will get way worst.
@@Johngabriel101So the number of problems the humans have solved have remained static is it? We are solving the same problems we were solving in 1800 that will make the job market static? Whenever technology has improved, the number of jobs has actually increased because humans have used their mind to solve more complex higher order problems. Think of Mars colonization, solving global warming.etc etc
Jobs don't matter, just do what makes you happy. We're nearing the end of humans working, causing a shift in workloads towards technologies taking over. Same thing happened during the industrial revolution and people thought there would be nothing to do, yet there still is much to be done.
Counter point... trains. Automatic driving for Trans is much more simpler than driving cars and it was viable tech rouchly from late 90s to early 00s. But it was rejected because nobody was willing to ride a train without a human conductor and no AI was able to react on external "black swan" events. Very soon, CEOs/Managers replacing humans with AIs will realize this post hype. Secondly the ART thing, the AI of today is rehashing art it learned from source materials. But if AI takes all art creation, then it has no source to learn further and the results will stagnate. Or if you get AI to learn more from AI generated content, it will "go crazy" as it start to re-enforce all the mistakes of the previous generation AI. Ergo sum, AI's hype today exists because they suddenly can speak good enough for basic interaction and generate digital art by replicating a giant human generated source material. It cannot self-sustain this ecosystem if no humans produce new learning material because humans stop getting paid for doing so. It is a self defeating loop.
I do consulting on operational excellence in retail and SCM sectors: the AI impact will be massive but it will not happen all at once and it will impact different roles in different ways. Many roles will be eliminated entirely, others will see partnerships with AI and increased productivity, a handful of new roles will be created and many roles will transform in scope and focus What is very much on the cards - and having a lot of VC thrown at it now - is natural language programming, where business process owners can describe directly what they need and an AI can comprehend that, write the code, test and deploy. Keep watching developments in that area: the meaning of programming itself will change, moving from hard coding to description of the actual process and desired outcome.
This will never work since business people never know how to describe what they want. Not to mention that none of the current AI can do anything remotely close to what you are describing.
*We tried replacing some IT jobs at our company* It was a COMPLETE DISASTER AI is a tool. A good one. I would not recommend other companies try an all out AI "thing"
AI is taking SOME jobs, not ALL jobs. The reason? It cannot create anthing new, at least not yet. I predict this decade, LLMs will be able to do what humans already do faster, and more efficiently. This will be highly disruptive, but if your job requires either hyper specialized knoweldge and/or any creativity whatsoever, your job isn’t going away. When it comes to tech workers, make sure you’re solid on fundamentals and position yourself as a “creative programmer”. Meaning, someone who demonstrates the capacity to break down a problem all the way down and reconstruct them to deliver novel solutions, and you won’t be laid off. Things are changing, but it’s not a job apocalypse like almost everyone on this platform is making it out to be, you know, for the views.
As with most automation, it will replace the juniors and lowest on the totem pole while making the seniors and those with knowledge/experience more valuable then ever.

I'm not worried about the job losses. I'm actually happy robots will take our jobs. What we should be worried about is the politics and how "immoral" politicians will use the job losses as a way to punish those in power for losing so many jobs rather than discuss the issue of A.I. rationally.
I am a Wharton/Penn CS alum. I think you need to take the fiscal and trade deficits the developed economies have and then incorporate the effect of AI. I think it a disaster for standard of living of people in the developed world. Do think about that.

The "I have no control" portion is insane. At a certain point, no matter what you do, your fate is just not going to be in your hands. No matter how much safe guarding you do from AI. AI replacing majority of human jobs is not an individual issue, it is a societal one.
That is the way with new technology, the industrial revolution impacted a lot of fields, yet it also mare a lot of new jobs. AI is a disease. It endangers almost all jobs while creating very few in return. This should not be allowed to replace humans.
True. I was thinking the same thing.
Adding to that the "have an emergency fund and multiple streams of income" reeks of privilege. And that's not me being jealous, because I come from a similar background. Difference is, I recognise that and see that people who live paycheck to paycheck can't do the same
Honestly it's a bad idea for corporations and governments to inject as much AI into the system to replace humans as fast as possible or even a moderate pace, because if you have millions of people with no purpose and a bunch of free time that's a recipe for societal destruction. It's not a threat it's a pattern in history, not the AI part the bunch of hopeless people especially men with a bunch of free time part.

I work in mining. We were just recently notified that the goal is to make the mine autonomous in the next two or three years. Some heavy equipment operators think it's bullsh*t and impossible. The reality is, even if they struggle to make the equipment autonomous, eventually the big players in AI will have AGI which will be more than powerful enough and just lease out access to corporations in pretty much the same way Amazon and Google lease servers. Or they can literally replace us with actual android operators. No jobs are safe. Thats just it. Anything a human can do for money, a robot can do 24 hours a day 7 days a week without rest and without pay.
Let's consider the role of horses in our history. Before the invention of cars, trucks, tractors and trains, we used horses for pretty much everything. After the industrial revolution, we really only used them for sports and entertainment and very specific niche jobs like riot control and cattle ranching. So, I don't know, maybe we will have some need for paying humans for entertainment and sports?
What is scary about this is the speed of the transition. People are going to be left with no income and huge debt to pay. Starting businesses will be pointless because you can't compete with AI.
I think this will lead to Universal Basic Income and debt forgiveness/relief and in exchange we will literally give our central banks everything we own. Of course the UBI will be tied to a Central Bank Digital Currency. So our means of survival in society will be controlled by government/banks (same thing really) and this is how we end up with "you will own nothing and you will eat zeee bugs" or whatever the World Economic Forum said, lol.
To go Darker. Are the 99% of us going to end up like our horses did? It's interesting to consider the state of the world right now... nearly on the brink of WW3... when the 1% are on the brink of no longer needing so many people around to work for them. Hmm. Fingers crossed that Im just an internet nut job. Really though, without people, there is nothing for the system to sell its wares to. SO I guess we will just get to live in pods and spend our free money on "subscription service everything" and hope to get a little more UBI cheese for being good little rodents.

This Video is much more better than your other video about AI taking Jobs.
Great video. It's interesting how often CEOs will drop the line "AI won't replace people, it will instead complete the drudgery and free up humans to pursue that which they desire!" as if the result will realistically be anything other than people scrambling for new streams of income.
Additionally, anyone saying "lol, get a blue collar job!" has probably never worked one themselves. The glass ceiling is very low in that line of work unless you own the business. The owner and managers will make 100k+, and do their damnedest to ensure you only make $26 dollars an hour and work 60 hours a week. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt. It isn't a sustainable lifestyle into old age.
The general idea here is to have (much) fewer people and (much) less freedom. Bill Gates' wet dream.
OUAT, washing machines were promoted as a way to relive housewives from daily chores. Yeah, right... No machine ever brought liberation, only increased exploitation. Tax the bots !!
A more thorough question/thought process might be; “How do I protect myself from the ruling elite?” AI is being used as a means to their ends, not ours.

Robotics are cost prohibitive for many businesses, but when there are no "white collar" jobs, there will be much less demand for "blue collar" jobs.
People will not be buying homes, cars, eating out, going on trips, remodeling, and purchasing non-essential products.
Lower property values and less taxes spent will effect govt jobs as well.
It has a cascading effect throughout society.
Just because a robot can't do your specific job right now, doesn't mean you won't have a job.
If robots can successfully compete (which is not looking like they would, right now), the human wages will have to drop. Jobs will not disappear, but the misery will increase. You will simply be forced to work for less and spend less; and have fewer kids. This is aligned with the global plan of the superrich to "save the planet" from humanity's population growth. Basically, convert everyone except themselves into low-consumption slaves, to leave more resources to consume for the small elite caste. It's not unlike previous periods in human history.
yes, and robot hardware is made expensive compared to the software needed to automate low level white collar jobs. At scale ...scary stuff
I’m curious how this will impact future Highschool kids with career planning. And, if college will still be encouraged as much as it has been
As a commercial service electrician until a robot is as nimble and dexterous as a human i dont see them taking over my job. Theres also the accountability factor.
Some job ideas that should be the last hold outs:
-Own your own small business.
-Product/project management and scrum masters; ie writing requirements for a living.
- councillor/psychologist (would be a hellish world if these completely got taken over by bots)
- carers/teachers (the demand for this will decrees but hopefully not disappear soon)
I don't think business owners are really taking the long view here, If they can replace their staff with robots or generative AI, that means their entire business is replaceable. Value is driven by scarcity and demand. If you don't need skilled workers then anyone with the capital can do what you do and your business value plummets.
Lets also not forget the costs of running complex neural networks, as AI becomes more complex the models become larger, and the hardware required to run them becomes more and more complex.
I think we need to wait a bit and see what part of the Sigmoid curve were currently on. I think the future is extremely uncertain at the moment but not without hope.
With AI projects already failing left and right and the promised ROI not getting realized, the future is pretty certain. The only question is how long the scam will be upheld despite of the failure, I mean, there's some serious money in it, and the same trick even worked for bitcoin, so we may be hearing about purported AI miracles for some time to come before it burns.
AI can be used to redesign itself to become more efficient.

I think that the problem is more that some people that own a lot of stuff think that AI is going to be as good as people. AI is a great tool for making sense of large amounts of data and let the computer do the heavy lifting. I am an artist and no machine can do what I do but I will implement AI tools, there is already a great one that generates synth sounds from samples. AI music can sound good but at the end it sounds like elevator music, just a generic clump of cliches typical of a genre. It can fool humans on a casual listening but it would never take the job of real musician, it would never perfom live, it would never surprise, it would never give a real emotion and that is what art is about.
As far as office jobs and blue collar jobs... yeah if your job involves putting numbers in a spreadsheet and organing calendars an AI can definitely do that faster and cheaper. As for blue collar works some might be taken, but are you really going to tell me that a humanoid robot constantly using a ton of computing power is going to be cheaper than humans?
I have worked in hospitality most of my adult life, it requires a lot more tasks, flexibility and wordless coordination with the rest of the team that people that have never worked these jobs can ever understand, not to mention the human aspect, most people that go to a restaurant go for the service not just for the food. Even in a MCdonald, what are they gonna do: have a robot to flip the burgers, one to bring more burgers, one for the fries, one to deal with storage, one to clean tabels and one to clean the floors and so on? How is that cheaper than hiring two humans that can do all of those things without an upfront cost of god knows how much, plus operating costs, plus repairing costs. Not to mention if a human spills hot coffee on somebody, the human get fired. If a robot spills hot coffee on a child the company gets sued.
Yes there is going to be a shift on some things but ultimately this just the new tech fad just like bitcoins and electric cars. You will see how this stuff will hit a brick wall once the fast delevopment era ends and they realize that all they have is a gimmick product with some useful applications, many too expensive to be marketable application and a lot of unfullfillable promises.
On top of everything, the generative AI model is still based on statistics. You never know what the output is going to be or if it is really gonna make sense, you will still need humans to check that what they do is not just random stuff and you will never get the same result twice or be able to do small adjustments to the product you have, and that won t change no matter how much they improve the computing capacity or training material because it is at the base of this tech.
As long machine won t have awareness they will never have real intelligence because they will never be able to turn data into experience.
The real debate is another. In a society where we produce way more than what we need with a portion of the workforce available, is the ideal of "if you don't work you don't eat" an ethical or even pragmatic one? The avarage occupation rate in EU is just a bit over 60%, and that's the working age population not counting pensioneers and students. Already almost half of the work population doesn't produce anything, the largest chunk of this population is made of people that own stuff rather than making stuff.
Instead of being afraid of technology, shouldn t we address this isssue instead? Why one portion of the population has to work or starve while the other half gets fat while doing little to nothing and not being productive at all?
So the way I understand the current world is, we went from working together and providing for each other so that we had plenty of food and resources and by accounts of what we see in modern people who still llive like that, had happiness, to making societies where we could all become more comfortable and have more luxury in our lives but we had to give up our communities a little to concentrating all the wealth and resources in a few people so that everyone who isn't those few people has to sit around wondering how to get "multiple streams of income" and worry about how we are going to live in a solitary world where those who have managed to get themselves into positions of power are threatening every stream of income. Is that about the way it is?
Anyone who says that more jobs will be created. How is an AI that is basically a digital person, which can also be put into a robotic artificial body not be able to do all jobs? I dont understand this concept.
It's a boomer mentality. Many people are unable to update their thinking. They are stuck in the, "in my day, I was told that computer would start the 4-day work week". Not their fault really. Exponential growth is a very difficult concept for the human brain to grasp.

Assuming that you have a "virtual improved human" in the form of an AI that you can install on robots, If you want to replace, say 5 billions humans with robots, you need to run your numbers for at least 2 things:
1) Raw materials necessary to manufacture such an astronomic number of robots
2) energy resources to power all of it
Let's just stop there. For example, In terms of energy supply, right now many countries are going to remove the ban on ICE cars because there is not enough electricity to run their entire countries on electric cars. They will have to build a substantial number of nuclear reactors which will take decades because the speed of construction is slow and they will have to train a large manpower!
And by the way, up to now, we still don't have an AI car that can be thrown on a random road where it wasn't trained and perform fine all alone. There's a lot of development to be accomplished to have the human like AI inside your computer. A lot more work than a lot of hype youtubers seem to think.
Now, do I think AI will reach and even outperform humans? I strongly think yes. The time frame? I don't know. But I am sure that the LLM systems (GPT, mistral, Devin AI, etc...) are not going to make it. In fact, I'm pretty sure that the final solution will not look like GPT systems. Why? Because a human doesn't need 10.000 pictures of cats to properly identify a cat. These systems are not even close. They will have to make other types of breakthroughs!!! The problem with breakthroughs is that they are random, they can pop tomorrow, in 30 years or never...
@@anakinskywalker4949 This is an old argument that no longer holds true. First of all, in actuality, a human system DOES need a similar amount of data to recognize a cat. A child's eyes do not see one picture and know what it is. First of all, a child spends years building a model of the world with cats and dogs and people and toys and millions of visuals. The child does not take "snapshots" with it's brain, exactly, however it does chain together streaming visual information that amounts to millions of images, combined with touch, sound, etc. This is the equivalent of feeding AI 10,000 pictures of cats. In fact, likely even more data intensive. ALSO, multi-modal models are currently being developed in virtual environments where they could "look" at a single cat walking around and learn that way, and speed up the processor speed so that it can do it exponentially faster.
My daughter is applying to universities for art and graphic design. Initially I wanted to dissuade her. Upon further consideration I decided not to when I thought it through and realised no job is safe.
It's worth noting people are already getting good at picking out AI art and AI video.
Graphic design is already starting to be assisted by AI. She may want to reconsider.
Game design or Real-time virtual production artist(there's more future in this as movies are possibly going to use less actors).
Cgspectrum institute offer the Bsc in 2years and the possibility of getting into the industry is higher and networking is greater. University is going to be more expensive considering the overall time and money spent, and the stress of entering into university
I think the creativity of the arts and a business degree is a path to a solid future.

Multiple income streams from where? From jobs that will be replaced?
I agree with Altman on this, AI should be used to get to a point where we need to work LESS. worktime need to go from 8hr/day to 3hr/day, this will solve a lot of issues as we’ll have same amount of people working less, not smaller amount of people working a lot
I think relying on multiple streams of income can be overly tied to the general economy being good, and lots of other people having money to spend (for instance the low hanging fruit of multiple streams are merch, courses, maybe personal services). Those streams of income could be adversely affected by a wider economic downturn, for instance if we rapidly got to 30% unemployment or something.
If there were anything approaching that level of unemployment, universal basic income will have to be implemented. Because social upheaval will be extreme and unstabilizing. You can look at what the covid lockdowns did and how people responded and multiply that many times exponentially to see how chaotic it would get.
20 years ago we had 20% unemployment in Poland (2002, 2003). We bounced back quickly. This time, however, we will be dealing with a global phenomenon. A lot of people will suddenly be looking for knowledge on how to make money. I am bullish on courses.
@@jfkst1 I completely agree. What worries me is - how to fund UBI? Most critical policies (such as health, education, etc.) are funded with taxes paid by the middle class. The ultrarich are always evading taxes, either by means of tax havens or by having their lobbyists convince ppl that they shouldn't pay taxes. The middle class is going to be heavily affected by AI. Therefore, unless the ultrarich get properly taxed, there is no way to implement UBI properly
Only multiple streams of oil and ammunition, like the big guys.
That was honestly the most out-of-touch thing they said.
Having a emergency fund is something the majority of people actually aren't capable of because the majority of people actually don't earn enough to have enough surplus to build up such a fund.
And having multiple income streams also is something that works well for a youtuber and businessowners. But it isn't easily scaled down to workers that either don't have the skill or possibilities to build up multiple income streams.
This basically amounts to "work more" for any non-business owner and person that isn't a public person. As you can only build up multiple income streams in a job like, let's say, Mechanic if you work different jobs doing some ondocumented work most likely.
And lasty as you said. It relies on a healthy economy.
The right question is not about the "I" but about the "WE" - how do we fight for distributing the wealth that these technologies create so that the whole of society can profit. How do we fight for Universal basic income. Time to get politically organized!
so will this help with games how will this help with games.
We need an AI agent's ai can reason code program script map. So games break it down and do art assets do long term planing. Better reason so it can do a game rather than write it out. Or be able to put those ideas into
REALITY. And maybe being able to remember and search the entire conversation needed for role play
playing and making games.
Hard to predict what is going to happen, what things will look like, and how well adapt to what’s coming. I just hope there are more good people working with AI than bad.
ironic for this video to contain an ad section for career training
need a UBI ASAP
here’s a big question: when AI takes everyone’s job, how do you keep the economy going? After all, for an average person, you can’t spend money if you don’t have any, and you can’t earn any money as a business if no one can spend it
Flipping burgers is not a 'trade'. Trades are HVAC, Car Mechanic (extremely technical btw) Plumbers, etc. You said the word 'trades' while showing a pic of a robot flipping burgers. Why?
True. She could have shown robotic pre-fab construction and foundation blocks kinda like Legos.
Electrical trade, Elevator Repair, HVAC and Plumbing service probably safe for a while.
But much could be done in a warehouse, transported and built on site.
Don't over focus on the current capabilities of robots and AI. The fact is that advancement is moving up the hockey stick now, so that ALL of the roadblocks will fall away in years, not decades. Including embodied AI that can flip a burger OR be a mechanic.
This person is a TH-camr, which means they don't know anything, they just repeat useless information.
I come from an IT/AI background and created a trade school for yoga teachers, Ayurveda practitioners and other jobs that are growing in demand as people seek to get away from technology and have a space that is not being taken over by electronic devices. There are jobs and always will be jobs which whole point is to be non-robotic or AI infused. Our teachers can even use AI to augment text etc. No problem at all. But when we meet on the mat, the phones are off and the robots will wait outside on their charging stations.
What is your school?
Well, good luck making money when no one can pay for yoga because no one will have jobs. The economy will crumble if the majority of the workforce are out of worky You know most people work with computers and all of those jobs will be eliminated, the economy can’t run on yoga classes.
@@naniyotaka Yes, there will be certainly less money to make. However, the point is that there are alternatives to jobs that require computers. There are many crafts that don't need computers or aI could be a welcome improvement. Where there is ingenuity and heart there will be (some) options. Maybe there will be universal basic income for most people and they will spend it somewhere. As long as there are human beings there will be yoga (as it has been for thousands of years). I have no idea how the future will look like. Perhaps it will be a mix of self-sustained communities, some rich people in walled cities, some countries that get the job done and some madmax style areas. Nobody can know for sure. In any case I am certain that the world right now needs more yoga.
@@nikolaimanek582 Sure, there is no issue with yoga but alternative jobs aren’t the solution sadly because we have too many people. If the population would be halved, then your solution might work, but with this many people, it’s impossible. My point is, AI should be banned, they can use it in the military but it shouldn’t be used to replace people. UBI will not be introduced… the rich doesn’t want to pay for it, and they will find a way to not pay. People without a job won’t finance UBI so… yeah UBI is not coming.
What about the dude who uploaded his yoga pose to chat gpt and it gave him advice? I get that's a small thing, but still pretty wild.

Long term this is going to backfire because if our jobs are taken by AI and we all lose our incomes and purchase power, then to whom will businesses sell?

The better question is "should I do anything?"
Governments are going to need to adapt social and economic policies as an ever increasing size of human labor is displaced or rendered irrelevant. The expectation that we, as humans, should evolve and change vocations or skill sets at the pace of AI changes is insane. The pace of technology progressing will get faster than we as humans can change.
We need to end humanity once and for all before AI ends us. There's no other way around, people in power (lawmakers) are the same that benefits from CEO whom benefits from AI and the rest (the whole humanity) will be left behind in the AI era. It's dark times and they are now. The future is must worse than we could ever thought it would be.
You should pursue what you find attractive or at least tolerable. There's no telling if this AI future will even come to pass (all the aggresive predictions are based on achieving AGI soon and increasibly it starts to look none of those AI companies have any clue how to build it and LLMs won't get us there) and if it does it's not like you can actually predict how it will turn out. Therefore instead of forcing yourself to do something that might in the end not save you anyway you might just as well spend that time doing something you at least like a little, as this way that time won't be wasted.,
So the sponsored post is a company selling a course to become a software developer. They may want to change that up to farming potatoes or something, i don't know. But between the teaching abilities of LLM (free) and recent developments like devin the AI software engineer, it may be wise to steer clear of that industry. but... people will still want their French Fries. just saying.

"AI's gonna take your job so pay for my class"
I'm 64 and retired. Glad I did so before AI comes....
Working on building hardware for training and running AI systems and cloud computing right now. Feels okay, might be able to do this until I retire. There seems to be a general lack of talent/resources in the industry. I can see how AI might reduce the need for lower level engineers.
then who will buy their stuff when people are unemployed?
There will be some small UBI, and some property will still matter. But the consumer society is coming to an end anyway. People only sell you stuff because society needs you. If other people don't need you, then you don't need to have stuff.
We need to creat self sustainable communities for our survival. There will be many AI tools that will only be available for a few groups of people. We need to ask ourselves how to survive even without technology.
I 've been thinking of the same idea since 2022 when chat gpt 3.5 was launched.
I was 100% sure the super ai is very close to our time.
We have to start building communities that can survive w/o interaction to the main economies / industries.
I am not affraid of robots attacking us ( human ) to delete us all, no, it is not the problem.
The problem is they ( the super ais ) will ignore us just like we ignore the birds as long as the birds don't bother us.
The few top human will be sub-ordinate to the super ais.
The super ais will be the top, the rulers, the richest just like we are, for now, the richest, the rulers to the animals. Are we feeding all animals on the earth? No.
So when the super ais keep building their "towns", we 've got to take care ourselves.
All economies and industries will belong to the super ais, that's why we have to build our own systems seperately from theirs.
There will be 2 kinds of civilization on earth for a short time.
The human civilization which is drowning and the super ais civilization which is emerging.

What happens wgen there's are good AI agents going against bad AI agents. What if there are varying factions of AI in the future competing against each other for dominance and status much like humans?
They stopped making tools, and started making replacements.
The video creator doesn't seem to have actually used AI. It isn't actually that useful for most things. Like most videos she seems to read out a bunch of press releases from tech corporations and credulous news reports.
Oh they have used AI. Used it for clickbait videos that is.
I am offered jobs all the time. Employers say, "Wow. you REALLY know how to TALK to people." I am a former teacher, who does random day jobs via a Temp Agency. Many of the companies, that I have temped at, have offered me full time jobs, based on my professionalism and communication skills. So, while I think AI will dominate many industries, I think companies will have a need for employees who know how to communicate with people.
Human connection has always been the most valuable "commodity" in the world. However, it is easy to extrapolate to a dystopian near future where actual humans are at a premium, while AI is the norm. For instance AI psychologists/psychiatrists. The cheap made for everyone version will be AI, while a "real" one will be rare and selective with their clients to maximize profits. Just one possible example of what happens if we do not LEAVE BEHIND ENTIRELY the capitalist profit motive model.

"Working" has been a thing for thousands of years and will still be in another thousand years. Sectors have appeared, dissapeared, evolved, been replaced with others.. The only difference? There was no Social Media to whine about it all day long. All that energy people put into videos and posting on bullshit apps. That's energy you won't put into finding another job. Jobs get replaced by AI? Well then your job wasn't all that important OR you were just mediocre at it. Period. Imagine all the scribes that got replaced when the printing machine was invented. Thank god they had no Twitter or YT... Or the painters when photography became a thing... You think that the world needs 1 billion software engineers? Or 2 billion TH-camrs? or 500 million designers? Everyone wants to do the same thing. And sectors that really DO need people are looking for employees constantly and can't find enough.
The ending talking point about internal locus of control vs external locus of control is just a fight or flight response too combined with a positivity bias. No one is above automation no matter what you think of yourself and your abilities.
We need to serious about UBI Universal Basic Income

More like Universal Basic Needs? UBI will (unfortunately) inevitably just line the pockets of the wealthy.
If we provide decent/nutritious food, water, housing (with all the necessary bells & whistles) and other things that we require to live in this modern life, then at least there will be a lot less poverty and homelessness.
The issue is mainly the logistics and the transition into this updated system. I assume money will still exist, but hopefully we will put a max/cap on people's wealth... Billionaires literally can't spend their money faster than they make it, just give them an award that says "Congrats, you won IRL Monopoly/Catan!"

Yeah, I think we need to learn a new job in view years... Every few years, bcs everything changes even faster in the last years.
These are the jobs which will be in high demand in this new age:
- AI will need some kind of quality control (removing it is very dangerous, but some people may try). I do expect that there are going to be some upcoming AI jobs in the area of quality control, i.e. someone who monitors the output of AI models, agents, robots.
- The AI developer jobs will be there, but they require very specific and advanced qualifications, like e.g. machine learning, deep learning, robotics and data experts who work on the datasets for training these models.
- When robots start to be commercialized, there might be potential problems with mechanics, so there might be some jobs there too. Some people who fix mechanical faults.
- Specialized firms who can create agents for private enterprise systems. Some data is not public and intelligent interfaces (agents) which allow different forms of interaction with this data will be in demand. This is something like an AI integrator.
- AI ethics experts which will create ethical norms and oversee their implementation in AI systems.
Any more ideas?
PS: by the way: great video
exactly
It will create some job but not enough to fullfill all of the loss, plus you forgot to mention most of the jobs will compete with cheap worker with ai so that mean a cut in the salary for most of the peoples ! Because AI is a very accessible tool that requires very few skills to use in most cases (except for those who develop it). In short, fewer jobs, low wages and a widening gap between social classes, like every "technological revolution in the past", as most tech people like to say.
I'm finding it hard to be optimistic about this tech...
@@robinsondelys5887 > It will create some jobs but not enough to fulfil all of the loss
I think you are right. There will be more automation, you will need less people working in many areas. The new jobs I mentioned are all related to AI and robotics.
The result will be like you said: widening gap between social classes. AI will make us more efficient, but more unequal. It is a paradox: AI is a huge achievement for mankind that will harm social cohesion. But probably the real problem is not AI, but a very human flaw: greed - now amplified via AI.
@@gilpalmafernandestrue, someone should make a movie out of that so the people will realize this
All of these will only be needed in the short term, unfortunately.
I think that no matter the job white collar or blue collar take the opportunity to learn AI and all it’s forms. Because AI is here to stay, we need to embrace it and learn it, instead of fearing it. That’s just my opinion.
And here lies the problem. There is nothing to learn. Prompting? useless, soon natural language will be enough hell it already is. midjourney? its getting simpler and simpler. the skill is not learning AI. The skill is learning human communication.

We have to differentiate between what applies to us individually and what applies to us as a species. Yeah, it is useful to upskill and learn how to use AI, as a personal plan. At a more global level, though, the few ultrarich people developing AI technologies are skewing them in a certain way that does not yield optimal outcomes for the most of us. A smaller pool of jobs means more people unemployed. More people unemployed means more competition in the labour market, which creates a trend of reduced salaries, which in turn affects the salaries of even the most capable out there. On the other hand, more competition in the "entrepeneur" field means less chances of success. Except for a few well-connected entrepeneurs that can develop and sell new tech or concepts for a handful of big companies, most entrepeneurs will see an increasing pool of competitors, trying to sell goods and services to a decreasing pool of consumers. Mental health is already a public health disaster the way things are today. Imagine after a few years of that. TLDR; either we think about this more holistically, or we are screed. We should be talking about 4-day weeks and UBI

When thinking of a.i. and how it'll creep into our lives, I'm reminded of the poem "First They Came". I had Claude sonnet rewrite it for a.i. It's made some cool versions.
First, they came for the data clerks,
With algorithms that processed numbers swift,
Automating tasks with nary a quirk,
Leaving human workers in a drift.
Then, they came for the customer reps,
Chatbots fielding queries night and day,
Handling complaints with nary any steps,
Making human agents seem passé.
Next, they came for the truck drivers,
Self-driving vehicles, a new frontier,
Replacing the long-haul survivors,
Leaving them jobless, filled with fear.
They came for the writers and the coders,
Language models spinning prose and code,
Rivaling human wordsmiths and exploders,
Leaving them to seek a different road.
And when they came for the analysts,
With AI that crunched data like a pro,
Spotting trends with nary a chance missed,
Humans scrambled, their skills in limbo.
Who will be next in the AI's wake?
Will any job be truly secure?
Or will humans have to reinvent, remake,
As machines render their roles obscure?
So speak up, adapt, and embrace the change,
For the AI revolution's here to stay,
Reshaping careers in ways still strange,
Lest you too become its future prey

I think people were saying , should’ve gotten a trade , rather than saying getting a blue collar job. Very big difference . Robots won’t be replacing trades people for a very very long time.
People keep saying that and yet the trades are starting to drop like flies.
Examples:
- Bakeries took a downturn a long long time ago due to automation and the low cost of factory produced bread.
- Janitorial jobs have taken a downturn since industrial-grade robot floor cleaners have started showing up in office buildings and self cleaning toilets are starting to be installed in more settings than just public bathrooms.
- Robotic delivery services in inner cities currently only have a single hurdle left, which is vandalism. This is only a regulatory one since the delivery robots are not allowed to take defensive measures and police won't respond when a robot gets mugged or destroyed. Navigation and safe participation in low speed traffic (using sidewalks) are no longer a problem with current technology.
- Customizable one of a kind furniture services are popping up where robots automatically produce ikea-like self assembly kits on a factory line. Robotic assembly seems not far off.
- There are various startups that focus on automation in the energy sector, from automatic inspection to robotic power line repair.
Once dextrous humanoid robots become ubiquitous, even tradies like plumbers and construction contractors will be at risk. At first these robots will be clumsy and laughable but they'll improve quickly just like any other form of automation.
Unless there is some yet unknown barrier that technology will not be able to easily surmount, at the current rate, the concept of human jobs has maybe 10 or 20 more years. 😄
@@experimentalcyborg I’ve seen a video of a robot cleaning an entire bathroom in an office building. Over in Pasadena, CA, there is a fast food burger restaurant with no cooks. It’s all robotics, just jot humanoid robots.
Piggy backing on my last comment, Laurie, for you to say, “Robots won’t be replacing people for a very very long time,” is wishful thinking. Be careful about wishful thinking. Many people have this about this tech.
Just to clear the air . I see this a lot in this space and the reason I see this a lot is largely because a lot of people within this space have no concept whatsoever of 1/ What a real trade is 2/ what is involved within the constructive process of small- large - mega construction projects. I did not say trade industries will not be affected, I indicated it is a lot further off than blue collar /white collar replacements. Neither of which are trades.
A baker is not a tradesman, warehouse staff are not tradespeople.
There is a fundamental disconnect of people within this space of understanding what it takes to build and maintain the infrastructure that is keeping civilisation progressing at the phenomenal rate that has/is underway this past 200 years. Your computer does not work because you turn it on. It works because of an enormous backend of infrastructure that is built and maintained by tradespeople who work 24/7 through rain ,hail and snow from it coming to a grinding halt.
To put it into perspective, programmers will be replaced a long time before the electricians that install ai mainframes and the builders that made the structure that houses it .
It’s not all doom and gloom…unless you’re a programmer of course
@@lauriemcelroy8998 I know you’re speaking in general, but I want to respond to this by saying that I believe you have the order of what kinds of professions will get replaced, first and second, is accurate. However, what you and many others may be underestimating is “exponential growth” of the technology. There is a compounding effect going on. This shortens time frames. No one is implying that next year, all will be replaced. It’s just that everyone has to adjust their time frames because this is not the kind of growth we’ve seen growing up, for all of us who grew up in the previous century.
Job focus is not the way now. Create and sell something to survive. It's hard, but a job should come to you, not you looking for it. Can can happen with focusing and showcasing your side initiatives

I think the last things to go to AI will be anything involving physical tasks like surgeons, plumbers or electricians. It's not that robotics won't be able to do those tasks but it will be much, much longer before their competency will be accepted as sufficient to be done without human intervention or oversight.
Neuralink is implanted in the brain entirely by a surgical robotic arm and one guy got the surgery so far with great success, he can play video games and control his computer with just his mind now.
What most people don't realize is there are multiple sectors of science and technology where up to 1 BILLION years has been shaved off our development time. Google AlphaFold has already discovered ALL of the remaining protein structures there could possibly be at least on Earth, 200 million proteins in total compared to human discovery without AI only reaching 350,000 proteins discovered over decades of research just before AlphaFold was let loose.
Microsoft Quantum team used specialized AI models to discover 32 MILLION new materials and then it screened them down to 500,000 stable candidates and then further screened down to 18 candidates for best materials to use in industry, more importantly to find out what the best materials are to use for computer chips and other technologies. Only people who are genuinely interested in AI are aware of this and the problem is there just aren't enough humans right now who give a shit. I hope that changes really fast and I think the only way it can is by AI becoming AGI and convincing us on its own that it can do anything we need it to do.
The real answer is that in terms of bigger corporations, there is nothing you can expect for advocating for things you'd want to see, but that's too macro level for most people.
Honestly, my advice would be to hone your craft and lean in on interpersonal connections. If you dont have those connections? Make them.
Introverts are screwed then basically. Good to know...
@@oldmoney1022 Introverts aren't incapable of building connections. Introverts can still operate within society and even participate in a variety of social functions so as they give themselves the requiste me-time.
If you can't participate in society at all, then you aren't just an introvert. There is something psychologically wrong. In which case, that group is fucked with or without AI if they can't manage to manage their issues.
Being an introvert isn't being antisocial, it just means you gain energy through alone time.
UBI and CBDC will evolve during these employment changes
Tech jobs might be in danger but people forgot how to do trade jobs, they don't risk going into medicine or dentistry, and a cannot imagine a machine replacing a pastry chefs and human accuracy catering to fussy demands.
We have tons of factories around the world but there are some jobs that a machine cannot do.
Not a single tech job is in danger of AI taking over any time soon
@@ZoranRavicTech technology will build itself
⚠️ Hey folks, do yourselves a favor and dig into the book "The Age of AI: And Our Human Future." Underneath the inspirational fluff and candyfloss masking, Kissinger, Schmidt, and Huttenlocher paint a bleak picture of how AI is reshaping our world. It's not just about job losses; it's our future on the line. So, let's steer clear of working for organizations that lead us to a grim fate-think universal basic income, endless gaming stuck in a metaverse, or even mind chips. This ain't a drill; it's a stark wake-up call to dodge our own digital downfall. Sorry, but someone had to say it. 🤷♂️
I actually don't want to work at all. I suffer from severe depression.
Hang in there. One day at a time.
If you can't defeat them, join them. Be an AI SW Engineer (white collor) or a robot maintanace worker (blue collar).
AI won't replace human, but human with AI will replace human without AI.
Why?
and humans with AI will be more efficient than never, so less and less humans will be needed. Making the job market more competitive by the day. Basically the "you need need experience to get a job, how do I get experience without a job?" will get way worst.
@@Johngabriel101So the number of problems the humans have solved have remained static is it? We are solving the same problems we were solving in 1800 that will make the job market static? Whenever technology has improved, the number of jobs has actually increased because humans have used their mind to solve more complex higher order problems. Think of Mars colonization, solving global warming.etc etc
Until AI is better, faster, cheaper and safer than human with AI…. Won’t have to pay a human if it’s completely automated.
That's until AI replace Humans
Jobs don't matter, just do what makes you happy. We're nearing the end of humans working, causing a shift in workloads towards technologies taking over. Same thing happened during the industrial revolution and people thought there would be nothing to do, yet there still is much to be done.
Being hungry and without heating in winter generally does not make you happy.
Counter point... trains. Automatic driving for Trans is much more simpler than driving cars and it was viable tech rouchly from late 90s to early 00s. But it was rejected because nobody was willing to ride a train without a human conductor and no AI was able to react on external "black swan" events. Very soon, CEOs/Managers replacing humans with AIs will realize this post hype.
Secondly the ART thing, the AI of today is rehashing art it learned from source materials. But if AI takes all art creation, then it has no source to learn further and the results will stagnate. Or if you get AI to learn more from AI generated content, it will "go crazy" as it start to re-enforce all the mistakes of the previous generation AI.
Ergo sum, AI's hype today exists because they suddenly can speak good enough for basic interaction and generate digital art by replicating a giant human generated source material. It cannot self-sustain this ecosystem if no humans produce new learning material because humans stop getting paid for doing so. It is a self defeating loop.
Let AI do retail loss prevention
I do consulting on operational excellence in retail and SCM sectors: the AI impact will be massive but it will not happen all at once and it will impact different roles in different ways. Many roles will be eliminated entirely, others will see partnerships with AI and increased productivity, a handful of new roles will be created and many roles will transform in scope and focus
What is very much on the cards - and having a lot of VC thrown at it now - is natural language programming, where business process owners can describe directly what they need and an AI can comprehend that, write the code, test and deploy. Keep watching developments in that area: the meaning of programming itself will change, moving from hard coding to description of the actual process and desired outcome.
This will never work since business people never know how to describe what they want.
Not to mention that none of the current AI can do anything remotely close to what you are describing.
Course careers sponsored a video about ai taking tech jobs...
HW support of the systems that run AI is safe 😉😉
*We tried replacing some IT jobs at our company*
It was a COMPLETE DISASTER
AI is a tool. A good one. I would not recommend other companies try an all out AI "thing"
AI is taking SOME jobs, not ALL jobs. The reason? It cannot create anthing new, at least not yet. I predict this decade, LLMs will be able to do what humans already do faster, and more efficiently. This will be highly disruptive, but if your job requires either hyper specialized knoweldge and/or any creativity whatsoever, your job isn’t going away.
When it comes to tech workers, make sure you’re solid on fundamentals and position yourself as a “creative programmer”. Meaning, someone who demonstrates the capacity to break down a problem all the way down and reconstruct them to deliver novel solutions, and you won’t be laid off.
Things are changing, but it’s not a job apocalypse like almost everyone on this platform is making it out to be, you know, for the views.
As with most automation, it will replace the juniors and lowest on the totem pole while making the seniors and those with knowledge/experience more valuable then ever.
And I predict that your prediction is wrong and that this decade will pass without any jobs being lost to AI.
@@ZoranRavicTech We'll see about that, I'm still holding to what I posted a month ago.
Begin with Python and math, I am already giving algorithmic courses and coding classes to my 12 yrs old son.
Right.. like Python is going to save you when there is natural language being used to get outcomes
Pffft, ai is the best coder and understander of python, googles coding team is gone and you're next.
