If AI does actually improve into something meaningful, the jobs it would obsolete are the only things Western service-based economies have left after hollowing out its industrial base.
Im bearish on the West, there’s 20+ years of pain to eat on the horizon.
Yes it needs to improve and also probably we need to discover the limits. The way it is bullshiting rn is quite dangerous.
Some of the stuff it does in with media is "gamechanging" and it clearly gets better fast. Not a good news for many artists that found a way how to turn their passion into a living though.
But it also really helps with robotics (from what I have seen), this will enable a new level of automation that will make a lot of manufacturing jobs obsolete.
