.@danshipper: "The AI jobpocalypse is not a thing.
The mass unemployment thing that AI lab CEOs are talking about—that's not going to happen.
AI models make yesterday's human competence cheap.
But what's interesting is that since everyone's using the same models, it all looks the same. So it becomes commoditized. It's not valuable anymore.
And what humans do is we go in there, and we're like, yeah, we have all this frozen human competence from yesterday, how do I use this to make something new and interesting, today?"
Watching the Jimmy Savile documentary, a thought occurred to me. We are a bit of a strange country. What sort of country allows a man to distract them with chaotically organised hair, clowning around, cos-playing, constant face-pulling and blatant lying to rise to prominence?
