    Let’s skip over all the linguistic quirks here really quick and focus on the heart of the matter.

    AI is good enough at certain things to change whole job sectors. Whether that’s good or not is not something I can even discuss without making assumptions based on lacking data. What it realistically means, though, is that certain jobs are being transformed, while others are becoming superfluous. How we as society deal with this is one of the challenges in the coming years.

    AI has been making huge strides in the recent years, months, even weeks. Heck, you can’t spend a week in the woods without missing some big news. The challenge is to adapt to the new tools without making unequal wealth distribution even worse than it is already.

    That doesn’t change the fact that certain jobs will change, like translation turning more info editing work, or coding into designing, and some older folks, who find it difficult to adapt, will go under.

    It’s happened before multiple times, for example with the industrial revolution.
