Most people apparently agree on two things:
1. AI is a great boon for all tasks and specialties we don't have the skills to do ourselves. Understandable, since (A) we're ill equipped to see the flaws in its output because it isn't our area of expertise, and (B) it often can unlock great gains because if we trust it, we then don't have to pay and wait for humans to do that thing.
2. AI is a terrible replacement for me - my skills are at such a high level that it's almost theoretical that it'll ever be good enough to replace me for 90% of what I get paid to do. It's a tool at best.
This is why I use AI for all my medical questions and doctors use AI to write software, and we both smirk at the quality the other person is getting from it.
The ending is a really powerful point. Most people apparently agree on two thing... | Hacker News
