“AI WILL REPLACE ALL THE JOBS!” IS JUST TECH EXECS DOING MARKETING

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

There's no evidence that AI can, will, or has replaced a large percentage of jobs. However, there are hundreds of years of evidence showing the opposite is true: AI will almost certainly create more jobs than it displaces. The press and media cover hype stories because they draw clicks. Previous technological revolutions took jobs away from some workers, but this resulted in greater productivity, employment, and more options for workers. AI may permanently alter the employment landscape, but it is unlikely to displace a massive portion of the workforce.
