At my age I’m more worried about being replaced by an Indian than a robot.

Work is supported by only two skills described as Knowledge and Technique. With AI, knowledge is completely available on an instantaneous level and the incentive for paying individuals for their knowledge is rapidly going to zero. Technique is being physically capable of manipulating tools to achieve a goal, and is highly dependent on the individual. Folks with great technique skills will be paid handsomely
For example, take the job of welder. Used to be, you had to have knowledge of welding parameters that were critical to get the right rod ,material, heat setting, thickness etc before you struck an arc. Now a simple chatgpt inquiry can provide a detailed job plan in 1.5 seconds.
The technique is holding the rod, listening to the arc, speed of travel, resetting position etc is all personal experienced based. IE Technique and is very marketable for the highly competent.
Soo If I were evaluating training courses on how to weld, I might put hours of classroom study at a much lower value than hours of weld stick in hand. AI will drive the shift of all jobs to more technique value than book learning value

Its clear AI is improving so quickly that all software development jobs will be gone in six months*. Dario has said this a few times already..
*Six months is the next six months is the next six months...

Most radiologists could be replaced I would guess.

Cooks are at risk of AI taking their jobs? Security guards? The entire role is being there.
Such ridiculous bullshite. There is a severe underestimation for the level of minutiae and detail required to run a business. “General office clerks” and “Secretaries and admin” are typically the people the deal with this type of shite that nobody wants to be bothered with. How is AI going to deal with customer not signing a check or writing it for the wrong amount. Coordinating travel around multiple peoples schedules that keep multiple calendars. Manipulation of time sheets to optimize billing. We live in a world of gray area and nuance that AI isn’t well suited for, particularly without someone that understands the nuance monitoring it.
AI requires things to be written down, or at least for people to click certain buttons. Most people aren’t willing to do that, and at this point we all know we are creating more data than is actually useful so we don’t comply. I’ve worked with countless businesses of all sizes and there are just very limited circumstances that I see job elimination at this point. I can’t even begin to make it eliminate my own job.
I just don’t see this mass AI takeover happening without total upstream buy in. Accountability is still a thing. You can’t fire AI.

To paraphrase the Matrix, this is the sixth time he's said that AI will take all our jobs in six months, and he's gotten really good at threatening the end of the world.

Your chart proves the opposite of what you said.

You know how the media drives attention? Selling fear
You want to know how these big tech executives are driving attention as well to AI? Selling fear
Selling fear pays well, look at a lot of youtube channels.
The AI bubble will burst eventually. It's not an if, it's a when. I think OpenAI will be the first to go down.

frick AI and its smug, oligarchal progenitors.
A technology that erodes human intelligence, further undermines human independence, deprives humans of purpose, and threatens to create financial insecurity for millions upon millions of hardworking families.
All for the benefit of a small handful of corporations.
What thrilling "progress."
AI should be limited to fields where it will benefit humanity (e.g. medical research and the sciences), and banned or strictly regulated elsewhere.

I think a lot of admin jobs are pretty safe from AI, I think the rate at which HR and similar functions change and the nuances involved for those that do good work are beyond the scope of AI for the foreseeable future.

It's really quite ghoulish how the big AI companies are basically cheerleading a ton of people being put out of work, the overall dumbing down of society, and the negative consequences that will eventually result from AI infiltration.

I think most of it is overblown. As a kid I remember when computers first made their way into the retail business world. There was so much trepidation about them “taking over the world” and replacing humans. It actually did the opposite over time.

You said all software development jobs would be gone in 6 months but the chart shows them trending upwards.

Sorry should have put my sarcasm tag on it. Dario is full of shite, he keeps saying all software jobs are gone in six months. He has said this for almost 3 years now.
Obviously as you stated the truth is the opposite... Even though these AI models are improving exponentially

AI isn’t going to replace lawyers or paralegals any time soon. Currently the only thing I see with AI is pro se litigants using gpt chat to create pleadings. And the serious problem with that is AI is 98% wrong when those people put case law etc in their pleadings. Judges where I live, or at least in the field Im in, hate AI gpt filings. My employer tells clients not to use it. Ask the lawyer to get correct info.

Weren't all cars supposed to be "automated in 10 years" about 15 years ago?
The AI still has to interact with everybody else's AI.
