We need to start treating AI development, and its potential impact on the possibility of a humane world, as seriously as we treat climate change. I’m not even talking about existential risk or far-flung, distantly possible applications. I am talking about things that are coming in the next half-decade. I’m talking about stuff that’s technically already possible but is still in the implementation phase.
My summary: we need to democratize all powerful institutions like yesterday. Seriously y'all we're running out of time
Yeah it certainly might reduce the number of tech people, especially in frontend stuff where a manager could conceivably come up with a general design and have an AI spit something similar out in short order, but it falls into the same category as traditional automation in that it might replace a bunch of jobs but paradoxically create a bunch of new ones to work around the automation for QA and such.
