It certainly was a remarkable reaction to the piece. My personal rebuttal to the underlying idea is that people would much rather deal with other people than with machines in almost every transaction in life. while Gen Alpha may not necessarily feel that way, my take is the rest of the population certainly does.
with that in mind, and understanding how slow corporations are at making transformative moves (after all, otherwise there would never be Clayton Christenson's disruptive innovation with small firms growing while large ones lag changes), AI seems likely to help significantly in some roles (research) and modestly in others (complex legal services) and not at all in others (craftsmanship and physical labor. things will change but not collapse
No one worried when the elite shipped our blue collar jobs to China and cratered our industrial cities. No one worried how our newly unemployed would buy the goods manufactured in China. Now the elite are coming for the white collar jobs. Many so-called white collar jobs are sinecures and need to be eliminated. Looks like guaranteed universal income is on the way.
in fact, I might argue that the reason Donald Trump is president is that many people have decided those weren't good ideas. whatever you may think of the man or what he is doing, I would say that is exactly what he is trying to address. we shall see if he is successful

Seems that faux journalism at CNN is coming to no an end — Ellison just bought it and panic is setting in among the faux journalists there !!
