Uber killed the cab business. It's said that AI will do the same to the economy. 

Do you agree? Why or why not?

My son is a software engineer and he does not see AI as a huge threat to his job. I don't know if he's naive. I don't know why he would be. Sun Saturn, he's definitely a realist.

He specifically says it's a huge security risk. He works for a large company. He said they'd never take a chance on someone stealing their internal info.

What I've heard is that it's more like automation driven change. Yes we will still need programmers, but less of them as the they will be able to use AI to do the repetitive tasks.  I see the customer service, back end office workers, accountancy offices, paralegals etc. taking the biggest hits.

@jana I think a person would be happier working with another person.

We're all getting cut off from each other...only bots are available.

@elsa Yes. It’s accelerating since 2020.

The development of AI and its ability for ubiquitous access to the means to create fake everything is going to push people into smaller and smaller insular communities because you can't trust the output outside of your circle.

@jana well said. I agree... this little forum is an example of this.

I don't know if people see - I kick bots off this site, daily.

I heard something about the writer’s strike, one part is how extras are being made to sign paperwork saying their image can be used in perpetuity. Joe Rogan was talking about it. Imagine never having real (living in the moment) people in backgrounds or in situations where you might need a crowd of people: it’s just images, AI, all over. How fucked up is that? I mean, more than it already is.

@allie120 keep looking.  It's deeper than this. And nefarious.

I'm sorry. But if I tell you, you won't believe me. When (not if) you see it yourself, then you'll know.

You're looking for the commonality and it has nothing to do with clones or aliens, which I know nothing about. Not CGI or masks. All that may exist, but it's only a distraction from the prestige.

Shocking but ubiquitous, which is why you can't see it.
