I keep seeing these really doomer posts saying AI is going to replace like two-thirds of all U.S. jobs within the next 10 years. I honestly don’t know what to think anymore. Part of me hopes that’s just people exaggerating, because if it’s actually true, it feels like we’re all kind of screwed. In like the last week, we lost 4800 jobs at Microsoft, and this year we have had 160,000 jobs cut (and it isnt even over). As an incoming freshman in college, I’m getting scared. Then people bring up UBI as the solution. But if everyone is living off UBI, doesn’t that basically mean we’ve become a socialist society? And if that’s the case, what would people even do? Wouldn’t a lot of people lose the motivation to work, learn new things, or build careers? It seems like that could lead to a lot of people feeling depressed (which I feel when thinking about the future). I’m not trying to make a political point here; I’m curious how people see this playing out. Is it an exaggeration or what? Am I missing something? submitted by /u/Salt_Progress8049
