While AI can do the work youll always need trained people to make sure there is no frickery going on with the algorithm.
That goes away the minute we give AI autonomy to control its own algorithms. It will be done in the name of efficiency, too. Who can diagnose a problem with AI quicker than another AI?

If AI eliminates office jobs then trade jobs would be flooded and the wages would be shite. There is no “winner” besides the already wealthy if AI actually eliminates most of the workforce.
I don't think they fully understand this, takes a primary school level understanding of economics. Not everyone can "just get a trade."

80% of teachers will be screwed is what I should have said.
So 80 percent of students will not need to have a physical person in the room? Who is stopping fights? Who is making sure cheating isn't happening? Who is walking kids from class to lunch? Who is watching during recess. Right now if a school has a 20-1 teacher to student ratio and you get rid of 80 percent of teachers, you think one teacher can do that with 100 students? You really haven't thought this through.

Who would want to live in a neighborhood surrounded by lawyers?
Actually, it worked out pretty great last spring. Hail storm last April in the hood. An attorney a street over was the first to file with State Farm, he was initially denied. He bullied them legally and State Farm relented and covered every insured roof in the hood.
I was good collateral damage due to his legalese. State Farm covered me with out a fight.

Teachers are fricked. Take the ten best Chemistry teachers, and record their lessons. Boom, AI can translate it to every language in nano seconds. Probably will answer any possible question just by downloading the text book and learning the greatest teacher’s mannerisms etc.
I think an AI capturing the process of answering subtle questions by finding the root of misunderstanding is going to take more time than people think. Many of my students don't even know what they don't know, and an AI would struggle with this.

AI can’t drill wells. The truck nutz will remain on.

If boomers were concerned about your descendants y’all wouldn’t have voted for all this
Y’all voted for nafta and immigration to take the jobs from millenials so they couldn’t afford houses and now ai so the grandkids won’t be able to afford pods or bugs

Trades make good money but they are hard work. People are at home collecting checks when plumbers are needed now. Not sure they will be running out to move crap through pipes. Lazy people will remain lazy even if their lives depend on it.
Workers will find work.

If millions of people are laid off through AI and can’t support their families, I can promise you that they’ll flock to blue collar jobs in enough numbers to drastically lower wages. To think otherwise is just being naive or thinking too highly of what blue collar work entails.

AI really streamlining and raising productivity exponentially will be the domino that ushers in UBI. There will be a yuge swath of the population that essentially become worthless.

There’s already programs doing this for students who need remediation. It’ll be done under the guise of saving money. And our kids will become more and more retarded.
I’m a teacher. I predict AI will replace brick and mortar education within 15 years.

I don't like it.
Let's just say AI does take over and we're all on a UBI for the most part. What do people do all day?
Want to go to the park? Well, it's going to be slammed with people. National Parks, State Parks, theme parks, wherever.
And I just think there will be a lot of bored people without purpose. This would be one of the bigger societal changes in the history of the world. No way to predict how it would work out.

Texas private school’s use of new ‘AI tutor’ rockets student test scores to top 2% in the country
Why does everyone here seem to take this story at face value? Teaching consists of "two hours a day with an AI assistant, using the rest of the day to focus on skills like public speaking, financial literacy, and teamwork." And the student performance is in the "top 2% of the country."
I simply disbelieve this. Smelling some bovine excrement with this story. The presentation from the school, which the dumb media laps up uncritically, is very vague and snake oil-like. Magical results!
It kind of reminds me of the religious school funded under Jindal's program in Louisiana, where they were just showing the kids DVDs to educate them
