It’s a technology that is less than a year old in the public domain. It’s in the iPhone 1 stage. It’ll get better, and it’ll replace most low skill jobs.
Ironically most low skilled jobs are things that aren’t going to be replaced for a long time.
Jobs like shelf stacker, bag checker, or sweeping up on a building site are super fiddly and involve a mix of interacting with people and dealing with an environment that’s being constantly changed.
On the other hand, anything that involves writing and doesn’t need to be accurate or compelling is already at risk. BuzzFeed should be very afraid.
BuzzFeed writers should be afraid. BuzzFeed owners are fine.
The interesting part is many executives are more easily replaced by AI than many lower jobs. CEOs should be more afraid shareholders will want one of those instead. Right now liability questions are probably the only thing protecting them. Shareholders never want to blame themselves.
Gotta say I agree on this one. A company run by an AI CEO might do really well in some industries. There’s actually a replacement for the Turing test that’s been proposed where the AI is given $100k investment and if it can start a company and turn that into $1,000,000, it passes the test. I don’t think that’s a great Turing test but I do think we are pretty close to being able to do that for some types of companies (like dropshipping on Amazon).
We’ll see. Chatgpt is too much of a magic 8-ball to be making decisions.
There’s nothing to say it’s going to be accurate, and if you don’t like the answer you can just repeat the question with a new phrasing until you get an answer you like.
Sometimes it seems like CEOs aren’t much better, but in principal they could be.
