Gallup and Bentley University find that most Americans (75%) believe artificial intelligence will lead to fewer job opportunities in the next 10 years.
There was a claim in the 00’s that outsourcing would eliminate jobs. Except there was still work to do fixing the outsourced code, and that was often higher level work than the initial task. Until we have real AGI we’ll have a similar situation with AI tools.
Yeah it sorta goes both ways. I get coders who dismiss it saying they told it to give them some sort of code and it would not even compile. Right now at least its basically an alternative to a search engine but it has no way to validate its results (just like a search engine) so it lets you search a bit faster and maybe get what you need faster but you still have to work with what you get. Once the chat ai folks realize they just need to teach the systems to validate results though and its going to get exponentially better. It might even get to the point where it can simply ask for help and one human will have to manage a team of ai that do most of the more straight forward stuff.

There are already jobs that have mostly vanished to AI, and there has been no new ones to replace them, and it has been going on for a while. CGP Grey did a great video about it years before the current controversy popped up.
