>I’m bringing this up because, in the workplace, AI models have the potential to deliver both things. And that should terrify you.
Calm down!
Things that should terrify you:
- bioweapons
- nuclear war
- the collapse of society
- a civilization ending solar flare
- a comet striking earth
- a mega volcano
Gyrations in the job market are worrying, especially for young people, but they should not terrify you.

Much like democracy being ill-suited to combat climate change, capitalism seems ill-suited to deal with a long-horizon problem like this. It doesn't matter if you will be unable to find workers in a decade or two when your KPI is headcount reduction and it's evaluated quarterly, or when your bonus as an executive depends on the stock price over a given year.
One of the only arguments that hit for me against AI art was exactly this one. How will we get skilled human artists to handle the 20% of use cases AI art may not be suitable for when they never had the chance to hone their skills by working on the 80%?
