AI has improved exponentially in just the last year. You are completely blind if you do not see the potential this has to basically eliminate nearly all white collar work as it becomes even more sophisticated
I mean, I'm a bit skeptic because most coding work is actually eternally debugging shitty code, I barely write stuff at my current work, I'm lucky if I get to do more than 20 lines a week, because most of the day is spent browsing undocumented garbage finding the most appropriate place to add my fix in. Leaving that aside, we have always been at risk of white collar jobs being either lost, or precarized, or outsourced, or being flooded with too many workers, or at risk that the bubble will burst fundamentally undermining the value of IT forever, or all of them happening at once. This AI shit might be a catalyst but what has meaningfully changed in the working relationship? We were ALWAYS at risk.
