AI is killing jobs, but I remember when offices had 20 people with IBM typewriters. Within a few years, those were gone and the same office, if it still existed, had a handful of people with computers (often not IBM brand, either). Now, you can run a business off of a smartphone.

The thing is, you would not have started a business that required 40 people, so in this case, you're not taking any jobs away. Also, I've seen AI replace consultants and 3rd party services that were overpriced (like $100,000 for what amounted to a couple of landing pages and some low cost hosting). Things change. AI is coming for us all. Adapt or die. A harsh truth, but true nonetheless.

AI won't just replace and remove jobs, it'll help create new ones, some of which we haven't even thought of. Yet.
