Ya what’s your point? Are you saying that the invention of computers didn’t displace a lot of jobs?
If you’re saying that AI is going to disrupt the market and displace a large number of jobs just like computers did then you’re 100% right.
Nothing is finite. AI isn’t going to be the first or last thing to shake up the world.
Eventually your skills are going to become less valued and you’ll have no choice but to retool. Either you figure out how to retool or you get left behind.
Well this isn’t quite true, automation and computers have replaced many jobs. They just haven’t been skilled labour.
Now AI is catching up with skilled labour, whether it’s CNNs for loss prevention, LSTM/1DCNN for anomaly detection in Time Series (e.g. biosignal, finance) or more recently llms explaining and adapting code.
In one way or another, that work, at least in part, would have been done by a person, even if it’s an intern for example.
That’s where the majority of jobs are that computers and automation “took”.
Large companies needed hundreds of accountants to do what a dozen can do now. Same goes for developers. Or biologists. Or architects. Or whatever else.
Exactly , and I mean exactly, the same thing was said back in the 80s

The latest iteration of this kind of technology is always called AI until the next iteration comes along.
