Yep, we're headed the way of the wheelwright, farrier and blacksmith. In a generation or two you can add airline pilot, helmsman and truck driver to the list, but not before a 2014 hire becomes WBA.
Replacing a $15/hour cashier is aiming low, imagine the financial gains for a company that can replace $300/hour labor. What professions are you recommending to your children?

That said, this is a tool, which may have (limited) uses. But it should never "eliminate the 200" series. Ever. The AF has gone to a 'hybrid' model, with very mixed success. And sadly, the shortcomings may not manifest fully for some time. Frankly, I think they have alrady reduced the IQT program to the bare minimum as it is. At the end of the day, time is money, and business is business. SMH.

pilots are great at finding a sandhole to insert our head into. Don't be surprised when we collectively pull it out and the sun isnt in the same place we left it.

I 100% agree...except I think it will happen sooner, To the current newest pilots being hired here even. The profound powere of AI is unimaginable for most..even the creators of AI. My pontification is single pilot ops to watch over the fully autonomous operation unfold.

We are living in a golden era now. United NEWHIRE Captain assignments anyone?
This will not last forever and when the record player screeches to a halt, or worse, starts playing backwards (Satan is that you?) lots of people will be caught off guard. Much less unpleasant during a black swan if you have been planning for the eventuality.
Make hay while you can. Enjoy the ride. Save some $.
And no, I’m no fun at parties 😬

the good news about AI is that the wars and general dissolution of societies will be more impactful to our lives than the job losses.

It could totally hapen, and on the path we're on, it will. There's no question that a hyper inteligent being with no emotions would decide that humankind is the greatest threat the planet has ever seen. All it has to do is run a mathematical analysis of how much we have polluted, destroyed nature, and created a mass extinction in the short (by geological standards) million years or so we have existed. Not to mention war and famine and dispair.
It's not if, it's when it decides we are the enemy that needs to be eliminated.

A good time for a reminder from Debbie Downer…
