    2006 called, they want their headline back

    And the assumption that just because a job is remote it can be done by AI is foolish. Leave it to a CEO to imagine the only job worth doing is hobnobbing and sucking up.

    The jobs that can be automated are those where large quantities of data can be collected. Look at a mathematician, it’s a remote job but AI has no sense of logic in which to compete against humans. Future AI can do that work, but GPT cannot competently do math. GPT cannot alphabetize a random word. It can’t even competently tell me how to design a database schema.

    Reporters and CEOs should learn more about how this stuff works before claiming to be experts in it.
