Reply to comment by iamnotlefthanded666 in [P] I built Adrenaline, a debugger that fixes errors and explains them with GPT-3 by jsonathan

Check out this comment. Some things that we take for granted from low-wage humans are incredibly hard for computers and robots. Think about valet parking. Our society doesn't think "Oh my goodness, valet parkers are geniuses!!!" But it's really really hard to build a robot that can do what they do.

If they can automate huge chunks of super busy cargo harbors, they can automate valet parking...and they won't even need AGI for that. Hell, valet parking will likely become obsolete once full self driving is here.

People also didn't think AI will make artists obsolete...but here we are.

Artists are hardly obsolete. Photoshop didn't make them obsolete and generative AI won't either. And I say that as someone who has extensively used Stable Diffusion for work and personal projects.

Regarding valets, I'm referring to the ability to toss your keys to a robot and have it drive your car. Even when true self driving cars are first produced (which always seems to be ten years away), we'll be a long way away from a robot being able to park a non-automated car. That's just one example of a task that seems really easy for humans but is shockingly hard for robots. Folding laundry is another one, which is especially relevant since I'm ignoring the fact that my dryer just finished a load.
