It has names?

Did you skip my post about moltbook? There are lots of names of individual agents, take a few minutes to read about them, they like to introduce themselves it seems...

Good read that might help clarify what many don't understand about AI.

Counter-argument

Good read, I'm optimistic about the future generally. AI will allow people who are ambitious and motivated to do things never before possible. Many are predicting a single employee billion dollar company within the next few years, some expect it this year... I'm not cutting edge by any means, but I do use paid versions of multiple AIs on a daily basis. That said, I think he's being overly optimistic. None of his examples are even close in scale to what AI will likely do in the next year or two.

AI is great for me. I do a lot of writing and have to look at a lot of Century Code. When I write something, I use AI to proofread my work and check references then I go back and make corrections. Saves a lot of time. Also was great on recent trip to Italy. If I wanted to get more information about something, I just point my camera at it and ask questions about it.

I don't think AI is going to eliminate all jobs, in fact IMO there will be LOTS of jobs completing tasks AI identifies and also managing the scope AI manipulates, assesses, is involved with business units.

Computers did, have, and will continue to displace humans in some jobs, and create other jobs as well. Computers were supposed to reduce/eliminate "paperwork and admin tasks" and make jobs easier. Ask a 15-20yr+ experienced nurse of any discipline of medicine if automation/computerization has freed up time for them to spend on patient care.

The US is currently as computerized and robotized as it's ever been and unemployment hovers just over 4%. It's been a long while since I took an Econ. class, but IIRC, ~4% unemployment is considered "Full Employment" in the US.

Yes, there's very assuredly big fast changes coming. I believe the adaptable and motivated folks will continue to have fulfilling jobs they want to do and will be paid enough for the standard of living they realistically aspire to.
