when its construction: jobs will be completely automated away. when its white collar: AI is simply a tool!

Only the jobs that get to decide where AI will be used (and pay for the service) are safe from AI.

i think the obvious cognitive dissonance is mostly fueled by denial. it's acceptable for them to believe that the dirty blue collar people will fall on hard times. also they don't want to believe that white collar jobs will be lost because you can't use the "teach the coal miners to code" meme-think on it. turns out reality can be a little counter-intuitive sometimes. sometimes it can even be different from what you see on TV! wow!
