I agree that competent experienced people are being 'downsized' or replaced on the hallucination that AI is going to work, so we can pay less for customer service, or something.
A job that takes a knowledgeable customer service person 5 minutes, now takes 45 minutes, because they are meant to 'train' the AI.
These Corporate Types are JUST trying to save their jobs and AI is the end-all invention that can cure their company's ill...NOT!!!!!!!
AI is NOT GOING TO SAVE ANYTHING!!!!!! It's ONLY saving grace is too READ DOCUMENTS AND INTERPRET...GIVING THE DAMN THING A PURE LOGIC LOAD AND IT FRITZES OUT!!!!! Ask me how I know??? I took AI in Collage in the EARLY '90s and the stuff was just coming out. I have said this before, AI is good for mechanical things and/or looking up stuff, BUT IT IS NOT AN END ALL OR SUBSTITUTE TO THE HUMAN MIND!!!!!!!
and while that happens (the realization that they fired all the good, experienced people) the damage is being done. This increases the incompetency crisis.
If you're not working in this space it's tough to understand what is happening/what AI could do. I held roughly the same opinion as everyone here on it, until about 4 months ago. I use various models throughout the day to troubleshoot varies network and systems issues.That'd been my primary use for AI tech for the last year+. But recently this space has evolved rapidly and gone beyond the AI chat everyone is familiar with.
Think of it this way, there are developers out there who would say things like, yeah I've managed to automated so much of my day. Being able to do something like that requires quite a bit of skill. Now it's gotten to where just about anyone with some tech skill can automate many low level workflows.
And the customer service thing... you can get a free account in here and just see where that is going https://elevenlabs.io/
there are dozens of prebuilt work flows. this is beyond the automated call tree's we've all familiar with. I made some test calls to these things to see what they could do, trying to derail their workflow and they hold of very well.
I'm not pro AI taking jobs, I'm just saying this is coming eventually and it is something we need to worry about because it's not going to be, oh no AI shit the bed we need to roll back! Its oh no, we managed to automate so many people out of work, now what?

It's patheric
I wouldn’t sound the death knell of AI just yet.
It'll take a while before corpos get the picture that AI is not gonna replace human labor

Exactly.

Each re-hire takes resources, too.
Ai is the covid shot for the software industry which was the modern day factories.
All those people that Trump now has in his orbit are pressing the button to nuke all American jobs. To destroy the economy for the midterms.
When AI crashes, The PC gamers will step in buy up all the liquidated hardware, keeping the econ alive

Getting ghosted or automatically rejected from jobs I'm perfectly qualified for, AI must be destroyed, all of it.
