And AI has ALREADY displaced probably tens of thousands of jobs like legal research and basic brief writing, computer coding and other such jobs. And in a short time. This is only the beginning. This is not necessarily a bad thing in the long run. Like the introduction of power looms in 1810 etc.
emjayay.bsky.social (@emjayay.bsky.social) reply parent
As you know any real expert realizes that AI, like every previous new technology with broad uses, will mean displacing tons of employees across the economy, particularly white collar jobs. This raises the productivity of the economy and eventually things adjust with new jobs, but the speed can hurt.

I once got a ticket for not having a front license plate in San Francisco. The car didn't have one when I bought it. As I walked to the SF Hall of Justice I went by many parked SF cop cars. About a third had no front plate.

We used to do stuff like this years ago in a Buffalo suburb with cherry bombs (looked like a cherry and stem) and M-80s (silver tube with fuse on the side, more powerful). I have no idea how we got our hands on either, but we were only limited by lack of much money to buy more of them.
