Well, for one, human's jobs being automated has been happening for centuries. The world hasn't ended yet. People have found new things to do.
Also, while yes, the progress of AI tech is pretty impressive, I think people are prone to over-estimating both its current as well as its future capabilities. ChatGPT, for example, has some pretty severe limitations if you want to use it for anything practical, mostly because it simply makes stuff up and claims it to be true with extreme confidence. This is a fundamental problem and not easily fixable. "AI"s like this will certainly be a very powerful tools in competent hands; but they will not be self-reliant actors competing with humans any time soon.
