Oh, I think we agree on this point. I don't mean we'll see massive layoffs within the next 5 years, but rather real world foundation for all the problems we're talking about here. They won't be just random thoughts and predictions anymore.

It will mostly look the same for the average user, not interested or invested in this technology, but will be vastly different under the hood. And when the foundation is there, change will happen fast. AI will not create nearly as many jobs as it will create, at least I don't see how.

I see it as both real bad and real good, but it depends on how we're using it. With capitalism at the core, I don't see it as particular good chance for most workers. With the way politics work, I don't see them reacting to it fast enough. On the other hand: It's the first time in years that I feel a tiny bit optimistic about climate change (well, combating it) and all the advances in understanding the world around us and ourselves.

I'm mostly on this train to raise awareness for people who have now idea what is currently happening and stay up to date on the developments, because this will be radical change for all of us.
