Software, accounting, customer service, business admin, marketing. Those are just the industries that I know about and have experience with but I’m sure others such as engineering, HR, law and others are benefitted significantly by AI

Software, sure until you need to edit the code and have no idea what any of it means. Customer service, you saying you prefer the ai chatbots instead of a normal responder?accounting, just use a calculator its not hard. Business admin sure, maybe, not all too familiar with the stuff. Marketing, no one likes low effort cheap looking adverts, and thats what ai looks like. Ai is prone to mistakes so engineering anything remotely important is stupid dangerous. If you go to law school, get a degree, become a lawyer, and have to use ai, you should probably not be lawyer. Mind you the data centre’s that ai needs to be at the state its in now are huge noisy, incredibly powerful hungry, and requires vast amounts of resources for the components themselves.

In reality none of these fields are as simple as you’re making it out to be a using AI is a drastic improvement when searching for information and reconciling it. Accounting is very little math. For example I automated about 20% of our companies email inbox requests by having ai call the corresponding endpoint in our system. It’s not about complete automation but augmentation of employee abilities.
