A decade ago the 'creative class' believed the working class would soon be made obsolete through automation, and all the right-wing factory workers and coal miners would have to either grovel for entry level office jobs where they'd be at the mercy of browbeating HR commissars, or become destitute and starve. Turns out replacing everyone with robots isn't going to happen for a while because that shit is expensive and difficult (can attest, I work at a plant where they've been trying to automate and it's been a boondoggle). Meanwhile AI is advancing so much that it will seemingly make many writing, illustrating, animating, and coding jobs obsolete soon. A lot sooner than manual labor jobs, that's for sure.
You've not seen databricks helper fuck up the way I've seen it fuck up.
We are in no danger of AI becoming the next UNISYS MAPPER (the marketing pitch), because AI is the next UNISYS MAPPER (the actual product): great for the trivial cases, and fucking terrible at anything else.
