Reply to comment by Rumianti6 in Why Blue collar jobs won't be safe from automation by Rumianti6

AI replacing jobs comes down to economics. Is it cheaper to develop an AI/Robot to do a certain task than it is to just have humans continue to do it? Then it's ripe for automation. The jobs to target first are ones that are expensive, tedious/repetitive, easier to be done by a machine. We've already started automating jobs that machines are good at (think bank tellers, manufacturing, etc.).

​

My own personal opinion is that the physical robotics will prove to be harder to do well than computer AI, and that automating jobs that use a combination of both AI and physical robotics will be the hardest.

​

Also, you don't need human level AI to replace most artists. Have you seen some of the image generator AIs right now?

The thing is that it will eventually be made cheaper. That is how automation works. In the future once robots are cheap enough to replace trade jobs then the trade people will be replaced. I'm sorry if you don't wanna hear it that is just the truth.

Yes you do need human level AI. You seem very uneducated when it comes to synthetic media in general. Humans are the ones who use the AI to make the images kinda like using a pencil. Once AI image generators become viable which I'm guessing will happen in 8-12 years. Then it will be normalized as a tool like any other. A AI who have to be human level to independently create art like a human does with all the complexity that it requires. AHI is long ways off 60-150 years.
