Further empirical data proving the significant job losses caused by AI.

*Website hawking AI junk has breathless headline telling everyone how big and impactful AI is.*
Gonna file this one under ‚conflict of interest‘.

Who knew that eventually the real WMDs would be Weapons of Math Destruction?!?! 😂

AI mass unemployment will hopefully come soon…
But these articles are prematurely hyping normal market movements
If you look at the employment rate of other nations you see that there is no AI unemployment yet
It will probably start to happen sometime in the next few years, but not now

AI or just offshoring? Because I think it’s just offshoring.

You could replace me with AI maybe but I bet it makes a big mistake within a year that I never would have.

I hope sometime in the future, people get back to farming, and having chickens, cows and such.
Just being self fullfilled and in real communities. Having real connections and worthwhile people in your life.
This corporate cat and mouse play is just tiring for the mind, body and soul. The fullfillment is atrocious. And the constant fear of not being able to pay bills or eat is definitely not something one would associate with a first world country.

I used to argue with programmers that they will be replaced by AI. Some are still in denial.

I don’t understand the MASSIVE denial news like this always gets. „It’s not cause of AI, it’s cause of offshoring, or they just wanted to make cuts anyway and AI is a convenient excuse, everyone knows AI can’t replace jobs“ etc.
Bruh. Is it just wishful thinking? No one wants to acknowledge the possibility that AI is going to come for them too? Sad.

The number would likely be way higher if the service providers didn’t charge exorbitant prices.
Worked on a Google CCAI pilot and it was millions to implement a barebones environment and then tens/hundreds of thousands for each process/intent. Needless to say it was scrapped because it was just too costly but like I said, once pricing is reasonable, all hell will break loose.

No, it fucking hasn’t. They fired workers to lower wages and to hype up AI.
They’re telling workers they can be replaced by AI so they can pay them less. It’s all bullshit.

AI has not replaced a single human. Companies are simply cutting staff, supplying a copilot license, and leaving the remaining workforce with twice the work and half the pay. Good luck!

I had to lay someone off in my department because that’s what some execs decided. They targeted that role to be replaced by AI. I told them great, but the responsibility for that deliverable has to shift to another department. Now another department is scrambling to hire someone who can wield an AI in a manner that will produce the deliverables from the position that was eliminated. Go figure…

The whiplash here is so crazy from ‚everyone‘ needing to ‚learn to code‘ (strip mall coding bootcamps etc lol)
Then the very lucrative covid era job market for programmers/engineers/tech
To it being one of the least in demand skills for most companies now, expecially at the junior level must really suck for a lot of people

I’m going to continue to downvote these blatantly false headlines.
* ZERO proof that these roles are lost to AI
* No indication of how much those companies have hired since
I work in the field, AI is still in its infancy and at the moment, only augmenting certain roles. Headline is pure FUD. Dont fall for it.

Watching the tennis at Wimbledon at the moment, AI has replaced the line judges.
I am hoping that it also replaces football referees, as those guys are shit.

94k? For most of which is doing the same service as repetitive process automation (RPA) which has been around for way longer?
94k ain’t shit. It’s less talented people using more advanced systems to make a lower quality product.

Highly doubtful seeing it trying to be implemented firsthand
