Any of you guys been replaced by ChatGPT yet?
I have, basically.
ChatGPT can already do about 60% of my job. It sometimes makes mistakes but overall it performs better than I do.
Yet I still have a job.
Why? Inertia, mostly. Things don't change here unless there's an existential catastrophe. Mere inefficiency and anachronism are not enough.
Also, ChatGPT is not yet able to sit at my desk and look foreign, which is at least 30% of my job.
If not for that, my customers could use AI systems to do what I do. Some of them realize it, some don't.
I don't care, mind you. I can always pull a few tricks to pay the rent. For me the issue of one of detached curiosity.
AI is going to advance dramatically from where it is now over the next few years. I predict that this won't cause mass unemployment for the simple reason that even in the innocent world of 2022, most people were doing jobs that could have been done by computers or not at all.
