Rod Serling could have told them that!
Ford CEO Jim Farley says Ai could replace “literally half of all white-collar workers in the U.S.”

Australia's ANZ Bank announced today it would sack 3,500 of its 40,000-plus employees by September 2026.
Its bankers began using an AI analysis assistant called amie two months ago, after the company deployed AI tools across software engineering, research and writing.

"“I expected [AI] would be helping you to do your job better, taking away some of the menial or time-consuming work, so that we can actually deliver better service,” she says.
“[But] they’re actually using it just to downsize the workforce.”"
Would be nice if the impacts of AI were recorded to better assist with where we are all heading, as far as jobs go. But in typical fashion, big business, to save face will lie as everything unfolds to keep face.
Klarna, among others, had to rehire people. While AI is having an impact, a lot of the wet dreams about completely replacing people and letting AI work virtually unsupervised are turning out to be just that.
Aren't the large scale tech company lay-offs due to Ai?
It feels like a lot of the layoffs get pinned on AI, but it also seems tied up with the messy post pandemic recovery where companies are still figuring out remote work, costs, and what their teams should even look like. Some jobs do get squeezed by automation, but most of the time it comes off more like a convenient story than the real driver. The hype has definitely pulled investment money and company image toward anything AI-flavored, almost like they can’t afford not to look that way. For now the bigger job market doesn’t seem hit that hard, at least from what the Fed says, but it keeps being talked about like a larger wave is waiting to crash.
Interesting.
The people who have made the huge inventments in Ai will want to make back their money, so once they have a product to hawk to companies we will then start to see various industries hit by Ai and unemployment.
Just as the software industry has the so-called "killer app" I guess we haven't seen a major "job killer Ai application"...yet.
I just think budgets shifting to AI centric/leaning projects will simply mean people will need to develop AI skills or serve the things that AI cannot satisfy. Factory farming killed tons of certain kinds of jobs but opened other ones up. But yah the transition may be brutal for many. Overall though I just think we are seeing darwinism at play not just for careers but for the potential of the various attempts at implementing AI (oh and I think it is best to call it machine learning really) . Anyway, where AI/ML can be used for some things amazingly well it is complete dogshit or irrelevant to other things. Not everything simply has the mass of readily available data to mash down to a machine learning model. There was a lot of low hanging fruit that blew people's minds right away but now we are seeing where it falls flat and that they are in most cases just novel automated collage machines built on the backs of creatives. It was the source material that was amazing. That same level of human innovative thinking won't just vanish and it will build on top of these clunky machines.
In my last job I was responsible for several people losing their jobs. Not because I used AI, but simply because I used it well enough and they didn't keep up. We could have totally used them if they did.
Did you replace them though?
Yeah I think there’s many things afoot in my field that aren’t directly AI related. I did have a funny experience in the past month though, younger team member paid for an AI subscription and was determined to wring some value from it. Ended up making the most gash of inappropriate for the brief elements, some of which the creative director let through, others that were fine but would have taken seconds in normal CG workflows rather than back and forthing to mid journey with multiple prompt sessions and still cleanup work to do after (quite possibly sharing protected assets with said corporation without permission as well😅)
He was so pleased with himself though, felt like spanking a puppy when he asked if he could take some of my work off me and ‘do it properly in AI’ 🤣
wut?
Yah screw online services. Not just for security reasons but I hate the idea of supporting AI companies. Also open source has the best tools.
Ahhh nice? Yah I am certainly not proud of my AI use. Means to an end, heh, doesn't matter now, projects/company are over and I am on something AI likely wont effect for a few years anyway.
The old cliche of "AI won't take your job. Someone using AI will.'
Not inappropriate in any ooer missus sense, just a way off what the creative brief was looking for… and yeah, means to an end, there was one element created in the process that I really liked, but then again could have easily been made in after effects in a few minutes as the characters were already cut out and just needed some subtle animation that could have been done in moments with the mouse recorder…
ooer missus? well today I learned...
