And even if they don't automate it, plenty of people who can afford stuff like daycare are soon likely to be working from home and looking after their child themselves.

The problem with the modelling thing is everytime someone tries it, there is a huge outcry because it is adjacent to false advertising and people want to see what their clothes look on real people instead of simulations. That is why they aren't replaced by mannequins or photoshop. If you buy cheaper stuff it's almost never an actual photo of the product.

You are in denial if you believe AI image generation is just a tool. A five year old could use it and come up with professional quality images. AI is a replacement.

And art was considered an unstable career path before AI as well. Theres very little barrier to entry and a lot of hobbyists are as good as professionals. It's not like Dalle flipped its perception or anything. There is absolutely no way it'll be replaced last. I don't think it's been seen as a viable career path for everyone since the 1800s.

There is very little competition in neurosurgery because they will almost always have to be from a comfortable background limiting what we could achieve in the field and rewarding mediocrity among rich people. Competition is basically what's supposed to make capitalism better.

It's still not the same as being a manager or HR wanker who do not have any skills you cant find in a poorer less educated person. They hold our society back for personal gain and will continue to do so. If you think some of the office jobs that people have are MORE valuable than manual labour you're deluded. Look in any government office ffs. Or any pretentious over educated sheltered kid start up bound to fail. That is why 'bubble bursts' happen people discover they have over valued certain jobs and businesses simply because theyre uppity.

I don't know what point you're even trying to make my original point was that a lot of inefficiency is caused because of our class system and it's not going to stop because of AI. People predict this perfectly efficient world with UBI which is not going to happen atleast in our lifetimes. The jobs that are the easiest and cheapest to automate are already easy and grossly overpaid because they are posher.

I don't know how anyone even semi literate interprets any of that as 'capitalism bad' you can't have a proper capitalist society if the class system is holding people back from having an efficient society where intelligence and hard work is rewarded instead of mediocrity.

I refuse to believe rich people are just smarter than poor people, yet if you look up the stats they are overwhelmingly in cushy jobs that are a lot easier AND require less skill than a lot of real jobs. What does a manager even do that a computer can't. It's not a real job ffs.

Do you genuinely think people on reddit AGREE with me? Most people here are rich pricks themselves who wouldn't agree wtf. If anything YOU are refusing to see the reality of our society- it's built on inequality. It's everywhere. The world is not fair and has never been fair in the history of civilization. That was my original point that they'll continue to drag out the current class system instead of have equality just because AI will make their already easy jobs easier. If you believe people *choose* to work in factories and every office worker is there because of skill and circumstances don't affect anything you live in la la land

As jobs they will be irrelevant. Art is technically already irrelevant in traditional mediums, I mean try telling your mom you want to be a water colour artist and would like to go to art school. You have a better chance making money painting houses than canvases.

But some people manage to make a good living as concept artists, comission fan art, graphic design and all that. Proper stable jobs in fields like game dev being paid as much as the software guys it wasnt a bad career path. those jobs will be gone now. It's irrelevant in a way that matters the most, making money.

It's literally not about 'capitalism' what are you talking about it's just rich people scamming their way into getting cushy jobs pay more even though they are easier. Capitalism will value pure skill and hard work and these people are actually holding us back if anything. I have had both educated AND normal jobs I know educated jobs are easier and people who work there just come from comfortable middle class backgrounds theyre not smart or special at all. Even people like engineers will tell you managers and such are useless. Do you know how efficient work will be if we got rid of them? And how much more we can advance if social background and discrimination in education wouldn't hold poor smart people back.

If anything they are more replaceable. Management positions like CEO seem to be the most easy to automate considering how far AI has come. Manual labour is far more expensive to replace with robots and still has a long way to go. Yet we live in a world where rich and educated people have non jobs like recruiter, HR wanker, cushy office job worker and get paid more simply because of how the class system and economic divide works. Let's be honest here, average middle class person pushed by parents to get some kind of a degree isn't much smarter than someone born to illiterate parents and working as a child. Most of this is political and rich people have been keeping us down forever they're not going to stop

everyone has to do something in their free time and in a fully automated world it's obviously not 'work' as we know it now. If we look at what trust fund babies, royal families...people that are set for life and don't have to work do its usually some type of useless art

Many movies don't end up making much money and millions of youtube videos are made just for fun. When AI gets to that level other jobs would be automated as well giving humans much more free time to do what they want which will be pursue the arts. People will still make movies even if they don't have to. It'll be like those art and craft DIY things that cost more to make than buy mass produced. The stereotype about film students is that theyre trust fund babies and don't need to find a job that pays anyways I doubt they care
