The main difference is that a plow cannot replace a human because a plow is a machine operated by a human.

The premise of AI is that it replaces humans.

Even if AI creates, say, 200 million new jobs - you would just fill those jobs with AI. Why would you fill them with humans? That's stupid.

A single human with a plow replaced 20 humans with shovels.

Do you believe the ratio of AI replacement will actually be higher? I doubt it.

While there will be spots where a human will be replaced by AI there won't be nearly as much as people think over the next decade.
