A new study from Yale University shows that AI hasn't had much of an impact on jobs as many have predicted or feared.

    Surprisingly, they found that the rate of change in the labor market’s makeup in the wake of AI closely matches the pace when computers and the internet were first taking off. In other words, AI doesn’t appear to be more disruptive than those two technologies

    Possibly two of the most disruptive technologies in the last 100 years. Who writes this shit?

    We’ve just lost entry-level jobs.

      That is basically a list of, does your work require your body of not.

      But I basically agree with the list, at least for a few more years. I expect robotics to quickly get better and start replacing some of the jobs on the left of the list.

        Robotics has to get wildly cheaper and safer to replace any meaningful amount of work beyond factories or assembly lines

          Robotics has already replaced jobs in commercial laboratory settings for decades. Autosamplers are pretty inexpensive.
