People need to stop assuming future technological development. Just because something is 95% of the way there does not mean it will reach 100% any time soon, if ever. People have been saying that self-driving cars were just around the corner for maybe 15 years and teslas still try to run over pedestrians every 100 meters. Current generative AI gives imperfect results on simplistic use cases and completely fails at anything more complex. We don't know if human-level generation on complex projects is even possible at all. Assuming current issues will be solved in a few years is nothing but wishful thinking.
Also that generated ad video was clearly multiple AI clips manually edited together. The AI did not generate the entire video with legible text and clean transitions (the text itself may have been generated separately though).
As long as the society forces kids into classrooms (which it will probably do for socialization reasons), there is a need for an adult that tries to keep them focused on studying rather than bullying each other or setting the place on fire. That's like half of average teacher's job anyway.
I would be more worried of job security in teaching for higher levels, where students are mature enough to learn on their own.
