Not sure if this topic really fits here, but I feel like this community may have some ideas to share on the topic.
What made me think about this was the dude who wanted to use ChatGPT as his defense attorney. That got me thinking, from a logistic standpoint, replacing physical labor well would not only require AI, but also potentially overly expensive hardware to actually do the labor that could be well out of reach for a lot to afford.
Things like billing, HR, filing, data imput, etc.; typically considered white collar jobs seem much more easily replaced by AI.
It seems to me that that could be more affordable by a lot of companies than Robotics and AI to replace low-level to highly skill based labor positions. And I'm talking everything from bathroom attendants to masons with that.
I feel like the additional aspect of hardware puts making the blue collar worker obsolete less likely than teaching AI to be the best office worker.
What are your thoughts on this?
