I think you're severely overestimating the abilities of this "AI" and underestimating the abilities of the human mind here :-)
However, if you'd like to be pessimistic on it I won't argue, I have that tendency too ;)
And to lighten up the mood, I highly recommend listening to this episode with Gary Marcus, where he invites experts in the field of humor to discuss how distinctly bad the LLMs are at explaining what comes naturally to us: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/can-ai-make-you-laugh/...

"This AI" seems perfectly capable of resulting of extending the kind of economic immiseration that has already affected many blue collar jobs into many types of white collar work (ironically enough, the kind of work those blue collar workers were told to pick up).
Past this iteration of AI, who knows if the advances will peter out, but it's foolish to assume things will be fine because other things were adapted to in the past. That's kinda like assuming you won't die before having kids because none of your ancestors did.
I won't engage any further. I see that I won't be able to convince you in the opposite, so there's no reason for me to try to "defend" my argument :-) And your "command" is kinda rude, regardless.

You mainly been making vague, unsupported assertions backed by emoticons. It's a stretch to call that an "argument," and arguable you haven't been really engaging from the start.
I don't think you can convince me because I suspect you don't really have any support or specifics for your position to provide.
> As a matter of fact I do, if you read my comments in other threads, before jumping to conclusions without knowing me.
Come on. If you have them formulated, you should have responded with them. It's not that hard.
> Regardless, I flagged your comment since it really doesn’t follow HN etiquette on respectful arguments.
Again, come on. The disrespectful thing is expecting someone to go on a scavenger hunt just to find out what you, some internet rando, should be saying in your half of a conversation thread.
It's also just bizarre for you to note you flagged my comment. Am I supposed feel intimidated or ashamed or something?
