Can you describe some of these jobs? I’m no Luddite but I have a hard time imagining them

I hear Data Annotation is hiring, and man there are great jobs over at the stop n shop , the ai self checkouts need humans to help fix them , and woah woah woah don't forget we can always become an OF performer, or an Influencer .

I'm not sure grandma at age 88 will be performing with any kind of livable return. /s

There are no jobs, and AI will be slashing the white collar jobs we already have (70% of the economy). That puts the lower caste unable to feed themselves which always results in national instability usually accompanied by the weakness being revealed both domestic and abroad. Its the same with all empires.

Not all will be fine, some won't be.

Aging workforces made redundant due to AI may struggle to reskill, particularly in a later stage in life.

The gig economy surely made our society better, and hey, you can now finance your burrito /s
