I have no doubt AI will be able to replace any job, given enough time. I think the more interesting question is why should it matter?

I often come across this idea that it doesn’t matter how some product is made, but I can’t disagree more. When I buy something, I care if it is made in China, if it involved slave and or child labor, if production was eco-friendly, if it contains GMOs, and on and on.

In all of these cases there are no material differences, but there sure as hell are great societal differences. “I can’t tell” how something was made just by looking at it, but I can see how happy people are around me, and that is what I care about. Jobs are part of this as well. Everyone needs a good, quality job, and AI is designed to kill that.

AI simply means you don’t care, but then I don’t care about your product either :).

Soon, nothing novel will ever exist, and most will turn to things where novelty never mattered: the human-made. Consider yourself ahead of the curve. Don’t look for a job; sell your skill. I already check if things I consume have anything AI-generated, and simply ignore everything that is.

The future can only be Luddite. I like to call it post-technology.

It's a sad story. I agree enough. As civilization developed, new jobs appeared and disappeared repeatedly. AI will be part of this recurring phenomenon. New jobs may emerge that control and inspect AI. The social value you said is an important point that we must not miss. However, as a person who has been drawing for a long time, I am concerned that the role of an artist will be different from now. :)

Real artists will shrink in number; that’s for sure, but whether it dies completely is up to us. That is why it’s called the free market.

Omg. Competition is competition again. It's also a race against machines...

You’re looking at this from a very one-sided PoV. In supply & demand, I demand real artists. That’s all there is to it.

There is no race against machines if you ignore the machines.

Ah... I was just kidding. :)

Ah, sorry. It’s hard to differentiate when you’re exposed to serious statements like those

It's okay. Because I can't speak English native, I may not have expressed well. Please understand this part.

I enjoyed listening to various stories with this question. :)
