For workers wondering how far artificial intelligence could go, JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon has a straightforward answer — AI is going to change the job market, whether people are ready for it or not. Some jobs will disappear, others will change and new ones will likely emerge. But Dimon warned that the speed of that transition could matter just as much as the technology itself.
"As a business person, my view is don't put your head in the sand," Dimon said at the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland, in January. "It is what it is. We're going to deploy it. Will it eliminate jobs? Yes. Will it change jobs? Yes. Will it add some jobs? Probably."
They spend so much on eliminating jobs and social programs. The government enables this by giving them tax cuts with money obtained by taking food out of the mouths of children? We could never "afford" universal health-insurance, but we could afford to invest in eliminating human workers that just want to put a roof over their head?
Seems like a recipie for guillotines.
But, hey
The people resisting AI because jobs will be lost are fighting a losing battle. There's never been a case in history where we decided not to adopt a new technology because some people would lose their jobs. From a historical perspective, it's not even the wrong decision for humanity.
They should be focusing on the important stuff, what happens AFTER jobs are eliminated? I personally prefer UBI, and the increase of leisure time, but there's plenty of other options and we should be making sure we discuss the right ones.
How about the massive theft of art, thoughts, and data?
Does anybody realistically think AI use will stop worldwide because of that? Best case scenario I can see happening is some sort of compensation.
It shouldn’t have begun in the first place if the technology is built on intellectual pillaging and destruction of humanities culmination. That’s the bigger crime.
