    The article states 30% of those jobs are lost. And the 70% that are working are training the models. It is very normal that they start with a lot of oversight, manual intervention and hypercare, they are likely training the models to little my little reduce the amount of people. I don’t work in this company, but in a similar one and I don’t want to think how many people lost their job because of what we did.

    AI has already replaced ton of jobs, after all it can be used as a form of automation. Media is over hyping it’s current capabilities, but this is moving forward.
