I don’t think it will be that bad because AI doesn’t actually think. All it really does is glorified quantitative analysis ( can cross reference huge amounts of data ( on a massive!!!scale) and look for correlation etc, it runs off simple algebra based principles. Human thinking for most 🙂 is significantly more sophisticated than this. In regards to your example someone will need to critique the research and make sure it is revelant etc. Juniors will be needed to do some type of sh!t Kicker tasks still remaining at a lower cost than fully trained seniors…. Law firms will need up and coming lawyers or there will be no future for the business. Remember AI doesn’t actually really think and that’s not likely to change anytime soon despite the hype… it will just get faster and more powerful at what it does….
Yes I don’t think my BIL was suggesting that all those junior lawyers would not have a job , he’s just suggesting that AI will take a lot of jobs away from what is effectively “ grunt work “.

To be honest I’m a technical nerd , I can log on here and type away , do a word document but that’s about it so what it can do and can’t do I have no idea but he’s convinced it’s going to eliminate hundreds of thousands of jobs within the next 10 years.

When I studied supply chain ( was called materials management) in the 90’s I remember the professors confidently predicting that shopping centres , car dealers etc will be extinct in the future, ( within 20 years) due to e commerce. The reality is the internet boom certainly changed things but hey 35 years later shopping centres and car dealers certainly still exist. 🙂 I have no doubt jobs will be lost to AI but am also pretty confident more new jobs will also be created….University professors even the really good ones often get it wrong.…🙂 personally I think the future is rather exciting especially if AI can assist with providing some decent aged care for the aging population including myself🙂

Yes one of the things the BIL did say is “ it’ll cut out a lot of grunt jobs but there will be a lot of new jobs created , sone we don’t even know about at this point “.

One thing it confirms , you either go down the road of a trade or you get as qualified as you can because those in between jobs are the ones that’ll be attacked.
