Yup. CGPGrey made a video about this 9 years go explaining why AI will be different than previous technological disruptions.
Comment on People are worried that AI will take everyone’s jobs. We’ve been here before.

This time is different. If AI were to remain what it is today, the article would be correct, but AI won’t. It’s a fundamentally new kind of technology, unlike anything else that has ever been created by humans. It only seems like more of the same to some people because it’s so very new and primitive compared to what it will be soon. It won’t be humans losing their jobs, it will be humanity losing its job - there will be plenty of new industries created but they will be run by AI for AI.

Tldr: in this “revolution” we get to play the part of the horses from the Industrial Revolution.
The last revolution made more and better jobs for horses at the start. Then it made less and zero jobs for horses. This one could be the same for humans.

If you are anything like me, you aged 9 years.

I fucking wish.
Think I aged about 20. My knees feel like they are made of gravel. Also I got wrecked by the sun so my skins old now.
That’s not even talking about my liver! Or my arse.

I am surprised how many people don’t see where it’s going and hand wave away the issue. It’s going to become a lot more advanced than it already is in just a few years. This is an entirely different situation than we’ve ever experienced.
