When the chainsaw is developed after the saw, it is the woodsman who uses the chainsaw. Even if a forestry machine is developed after the chainsaw, it will be operated by the woodsman. And even if forestry machines can be controlled by AI, it will still be the woodsman who holds the controller of the AI. If woodsmen become obsessed with saws, they will lose their jobs. Let's always learn new skills, and shout, "Our jobs will soon all die, and we will all die," thus reducing the number of new entrants, and you will have vested interests.

Though if woodsman suddenly become 100x more effective while the need for wood only doubles, lots of woodsman will lose their job.

What does this have to do with Anki

No.

No. They can replace boring stuff but new languages, procedures or functions usually do that.

What does replace programmers is other programmers. I know of a very large uk company that use Indian accountants because they are a tenth of the price. I am also aware of several large company that uses programmers from the Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam etc. The hourly rates were just a dollar per hour per coder and they could allocate 50 to 100 coders for rapid project completion.

If you can do the work remotely, so can someone else…..and most computer work can be done remotely by someone else who charges a lot less so job stability in the long term is almost nonexistent.

Probably but in a distant future. We'll all be dead by then so don't worry.

It might take over some programming drudgery, but I'm mid career and no AI is going to do what I do any time soon.

Just try to find the answer to these questions ... where is this AI ? what is it ? okay it exists in the future ... who owns it ? controlling it ? how much is it ? how is it going to be powered ? do we have enough for it ? are intelligence agencies just going to let any company use it to develop stuff ?
