I think the widespread disruption to many occupations is a) over-hyped and b) some way off still. Current AI models are unable to reason, until they can, and no-one really knows when that will happen, then they will always need human support.
Take self-driving cars, for example, which we've been assured is two years away for most of the last ten years. Full automation is still years away, and what we get instead is features, like lane assist and self-parking, that can do some of the more mundane tasks but still require human intervention when necessary.
So you're saying don't believe the hype? Is that all it is? I know there is a lot of hype, gotta grab those investor dollars while you can. There's talk of AGI being very close, maybe it being here already. I have no idea, I'm not an AI guy but I am interested in how it will impact society.
