ChatGPT is Coming for Useless Jobs

The phrase, “bull shit jobs” has been around for 30 years now. There has been this idea that industrialization makes lots of jobs that aren’t really necessary but that we seem to hire for anyway. “Inspectors of Inspectors” is another way to put it. in this video, we going to talk about how most people’s jobs don’t really accomplish anything or help anyone. On top of that, I would argue that it is these class of useless jobs that AI is going to eliminate first. Once an AI can run reports, compile them, summarize them, and give real time data points, the entire staff that used to do that will no longer be needed. This is doubly true when the collection of the data is digitized and fairly automated. One person can do the work of dozens.
