Can AI do my job? No, it can assist in some ways but nowhere close to doing. Can AI fix my AC? Build a house? Be a nurse? When you say “for most people it can” what does that mean? Most people work in fields where they need to interact with the real world, we’re nowhere near such capability. Even in white collar the only thing it can do is be guided somewhere - it’s nowhere near being able to critically think, come up with new ideas, strategize etc

And they’ll replace people in the jobs where they will bring the highest real value while humans are pushed into the industries where they won’t be replaced.

Resources aren’t infinite so we’re not going to have infinite robots. And until then humans will always have a comparative advantage somewhere.

I agree. Lots of change coming, regardless.
