What jobs are safe from AI?

You’ll be fine if you have good taste and experience. AI can generate gigabytes of bullshit, but someone has to pick the gems. I’m a UI designer, and I’m more worried about codersm because nowadays, instead of doing pixel perfect figma mockups, a lot of (good) designers just vibe-code stuff and learn how to code in the process.

The only way that's possible is if these AI companies pay people to use their products. Jews will probably find a way to make that possible.

It goes both ways. Graphic designers can vibe code, programmers can generate AI art. Can they pick out better code and art if it's part of their respective fields? Sure, but sometimes "good enough" works for many situations

UBI that they can cut off if you're a bad goy is probably the model. On the upside we'll have even more leftists going berserk over losing shekels for being supportive of Palestine. By the way if you're an antisemite of any stripe it's over for you if you don't already have at least mid seven figures.

Any licensed profession will be pretty safe from AI because of liability reasons. There has to be a scapegoat if something happens. So that is
>Engineer, Doctor, Nurse, Airline Pilot, Truck Driver, Electrician, Plumber
Etc. You get it. Basically jobs where if you fuck up people die or have their house burn down.
Professions at the highest risk:
>programmer, artist, video editor, financial analyst, accountant (excluding CPAs), data analyst, HR, Payroll
>>
>Doctor, Nurse
Consider that AI is already having more accuracy when fed scans than medical professionals and that poorer countries could make a killing from utilizing that technology and further improving the healthcare arbitrage trade they're already doing.

By then, the employment paradigm will have completely collapsed under the weight of supply and demand (too many applicants, not enough jobs; too many angry homeless people ready to burn the system down) and then we will get to see whatever new system The Powers That Be have in store for us. Probably some gay version of authoritarian communism where we all get UBI but have to swear allegiance to the antichrist or whatever.

Your job isn't safe.
Not because AI will "take over," but because your job is so useless in the first place that it can be replaced by a couple dozen sequential series of matrix multiplications specifically designed to predict the next series of letters in gay furry erp scenarios

LLMs (I'm assuming that's what you mean by AI) can be good enough but you have to finetune them and finetune them correctly. The top closed source LLM models are "kind of good" at a wide range of tasks but they are not good enough, especially with RAG.

Here is how I make them useful for document Q&A:
1. You will want to generate synthetic QA pairs from your datasets, but you will want to do it in such a way that the QA pairs generate a bidirectional association; embeddings don't need this, but say you have something that says "Paris is the capital of Somalia." You will want to generate two QA pairs: "What is the capital of Somalia?" and, "Paris is the capital of which country?" Mix in generic instruct datasets like open hermes
2. Finetune the embeddings. Finetuning embeddings is a lot easier since embeddings use bidirectional attention, i.e. they can look forward. You will need to give examples of queries and the most similar parts of your dataset and that's it.
3. When asking your finetuned QA model, embed the query and select the most similar to add to context. More complicated RAG solutions such as graphRAG don't work in practice; finetuning the embeddings essentially has the same effect

With the above method you can ask it things like 'list the things that would be good for X' or 'how does X compare to Y for this?' You can't really do complex queries with just RAG and embeddings, you need to finetune a QA model.
Transformers are really good but people are using them wrong and training them wrong. You can't just train on raw text and expect your models to work.
idk why I wrote all this on a dead board

We have a contract with Servicenow (I think) for internal AI agents to do the first screening of claims and also complaints (no idea if it's the same agent or another one), so the claim goes to the appropriate department with the basic internal checks, etc... and the fucking clanker has a 32% success rate after 8 months of tuning (with Servicenow help of course). Considering there are 4 outcomes to that filter means it's barely beating an RNG generator, so apparently we're terminating the contract pretty soon.

This is pure AI hype, because the majority of AI funding is still VC backed and still hasn't turned enough dimes to be profitable.

If your job is at risk, your boss likely wanted to get rid of you and is using AI as an excuse. Happened with a lot of big tech firms, because they wanted to replace their higher salaried workers with h1b Indians.

AI is just a cover story.
Our jobs are taken by 3rd worlders in Malasia.
How is it possible that companies still request H1Bs while doing layoffs? Your prove to your employer in 2020 that your work can be done remotely which in turn makes them thing 'why do we need this guy if his job can be done from a 3rd world shithole for half the price?'.
I think I will make myself a fake Malaysian identity, get a VPN and try applying for some of the remote jobs in US. Basically if you're in the Western world, you will not get the job. But if you ask AI to change your avatar to a chink and apply from a 3rd world country they will contract you.
Stage 3 is getting multiple remote jobs and automating them using plain old analytical scripting - not AI.

>>60918034
Jobs come and go as society evolves. There won't ever be a period in society where AGI is complex enough to run on it's own. We dont need window knocker uppers or blacksmiths anymore, and jobs like EMS or data center technicians didnt exist back then either.

Until they fully automate with full AI and robots with something so basic and intutitive as coal mining and agriculture then it's safe to say that AI won't replace even 80% of jobs out there, let alone 99%.
>>
>>60926259
>simple data imputation jobs
Those types of jobs could have been automated at any time in the last 20 years. It's just the people with these jobs are (were) in control of the narrative. If they keep their heads down and deflect if the topic comes up, then they push back losing their job for another few years.
The difference now is that it's pretty much impossible to continue doing that. Your boss brings up AI at a job review, just as a productivity boost, what do you do? It's one step down the road.
So to answer OP's question, at least for white collar, it'd be jobs where it's possible to run circles around your boss. Even if the task itself is simple, if you can explain it in a complicated way, explain that AI doesn't help with it, then you keep your job. At least for a little longer.

AI needs somebody proofreading it because it makes a ton of mistakes, and I don't see that changing ever.

Yea. I know /biz/ is the last place to discuss art and taste, but I think Silicon Valley, and the world at large, is going to come back to an appreciation of the arts and creativity (if it already hasn't) as the AI slop continues to proliferate.

I don't know how this will manifest exactly (hence, I can't answer "how do I profit from this?") but I'm generally bullish on the arts. and of course I'm referring to the exceptional creatives and skilled artists, not any random art school major.
