Comment on AI doesn't replace white collar workparent

Comments

agreed with that take it is not direct replacement, at present, but rather job market shrinkage in sectors where AI can get more work done

What is a job market shrinkage but a replacement of unfilled/unposted position? The distinction between (obviating the need to hire someone because the AI does the work) and (firing someone and having the AI do the work) is quickly becoming a distinction without a difference, especially if you're looking for a job.

This feels very much like a distinction without a difference to me.

you are prob right, it is still job replacement, the underlying mechanism is secondary/irrelevant..
