Something that gets ignored is that we're already facing a serious decline in the workforce as a result of the fertility crisis. If we can automate some jobs at the same time as people leave the workforce en masse, we can avoid a catasrophe.
Those are the wrong jobs. AI cannot yet be a nurse, for example.
AI can't write code properly either to be honest but if it could then I guess many software engineers would retrain as nurses.
No, but it can do nurse thinking. It's just continuous Bayesian reasoning.
it can do nurse thinking at an accuracy certain to get sued into the sun
Well no, you would use it to augment nurses who would obviously do a sanity check…
As a side note, if you think we haven’t been doing this for quite some time already, you may want to look into this topic a bit more!
Talk about learning the wrong lesson
