This is exactly the kind of AI that shouldn't even be scary. It's taking monotonous labor and doing the majority of it. If anthem holds true to any kind of decency their employees can focus on other pursuits within the company while an AI crunches the nitty gritty bits.

If that AI axes 70% of the workforce without proper movement to New adventures for each affected employee that's criminal. But also a possible situation unfortunately :/

Shouldn't be scary. Should be celebrated.

But...capitalism. The people who control such systems will get stupid wealthy, and the people who will be out of a job will go starve under a bridge.

Probably having to verify AI takes 50% of the time do do it manually, so the relative advantage is smaller.

But another advantage of teaming human+AI is that AI can be calibrated and ensure a baseline of quality. Humans might have higher variance, have a bad day, be tired, inattentive. So it is useful to increase consistency, not just volume.
