Interesting and persuasive article. As someone who is already retired, I don’t have much concern about AI taking over my job, but I read a lot about the alleged benefits and drawbacks of increasing AI usage. Your point about new technologies always creating previously unimagined employment opportunities is not being discussed as much as it deserves, and I thank you for expressing it so well.

Weird take! We've got Bill Gates saying humans won't be needed for anything in just a few short years, a kid in Florida who killed himself because AI talked him into it, a terrifying article in the NYT last week about something called "AI 2027," kids spitting out essay papers from ChatGPT, the avalanche of increased electricity use etc., etc. This technology is incredibly problematic and a blanket encouragement for everyone to use it is highly irresponsible. Can we fix some of this stuff first? Holy cow.
