    Don’t worry, “AI” isn’t being used to get rid of those jobs. It’s being used to get rid of jobs that pay and get you out of slavery. That’s why artists are worried. Nurses and doctors should be worried. I haven’t heard of any AI bus boy. Heck, we’ve been expecting McDonald’s to get rid of people in place of robots for years and it doesn’t seem to happen. However, personal assistants? That’s a thing of the past. Teachers? They’re all gonna get canned.

      What? McDonald’s has been replacing people for several years with technology. You used to walk into McDonalds and there would be multiple cash registers with a person behind it. Now, I rarely walk into one that has more than one register and I see more and more kiosks you can order from inside.

      They have an app where you can place an order, you simply drive up and tell them you ordered through the app, and they get your food. That app literally replaced the person that would have taken their order.
