On AI taking jobs?

When television was about coming out, people were against it as they thought it would replace radio. It's 2023, and we still have radio stations. 

Even with the advent of YouTube and Podcasting, newsreporters and radio anchors still have their jobs very much active. If anything, YouTube and other channels amplified the efficiency with which they disseminated information.

Before the internet and subsequently Google mail, people had to handwrite their letters and wait for months before their post delivered. Gmail and like products put an end to that. But we are still writing letters via email.

Even with logistics delivery. It used to take longer. Now, I'm hearing drones are delivery it with speed.

Let's back up a bit to writing. Before the advent of the television, copywriters had to wait for months before they can deduce the success of their ads because they did door-to-door mail.

Eventually, they made do with television adverts with shorter timespan. Now, Facebook and Google ads make it so easy peasy to discover the success or failures of ads.

Even though Grammarly exists, editors still have jobs.

So, kill that fear that A.I is taking any job. Let's back up to programming. Any programmer would actually tell you they're happy with the A.I tools.

Because normally, when you'd spend days (weeks even) debugging a crazy bug, A.I tools would let you know with immediacy. 

And when you're introduced to a codebase, A.I explains how they interact with each other with ease.

With writing, it helps you break down your thought process to efficiently communicate.

I would say the key importance of A.I is the speed with which it improves performance. It's just going to modify how we work and ensure fastness. Speediness means freer time. For people like me, it means more time to read novels.
