I'm not an employer but a student. I do a Msc degree in a combination of mathematics and physics. It is very surprising to me that AI is able to solve the exercises in the books meant for students at my level. Perhaps, it's only "remembering" a solution that it found on the internet. But even if, it is very effectively explaining it to me. Better than professors do at my university. It is saving up time that I would be researching. It is not a gimmick, at all. It has increased my productivity.

I can only imagine how much time it is saving for engineers and programmers.

If it is able to do the homework, why would it not be able to do tasks at a job? The tasks at work are easier and more formulaic than the homework at a university. Think of what a secretary does. Teachers and tutors. What lawyers do. Many jobs that a Gen Z graduate would do are in danger of automation. That is the truth. But go ahead and cope and tell yourself it's not going to happen. Perhaps, Elon Musk is going to pull his trillion dollars from the venture, if you only cry louder on 4chan.

People need someone to blame and to lord over. Plus there's the whole economy and where will they be selling this if 20M people suddenly get unemployed. For every luddite saying AI is overrated and stupid there's 100 cultists that don't understand that shit could go downhill very fast.
You are right at the end of such list throwing shit at others, but offering nothing more that your warped worldview that things should simply go bad because they can. Or maybe is something else, idc

Opus 4.6 is the point I first decided to get an LLM subscription as an econ PhD. It's good for proofreading or expanding your work if you give it the right sources and prompt it correctly, but you need to know what you're doing. It's still going to do nonsense, but it's right enough times to save you time. I wish more academics shared their workflow: all online guides are pretty much just vibecoding apps or video games no one will use.

the problem is firms don’t know how to properly integrate it in their existing systems so they either hand all their data over to a flagship company and have a inefficient clunky workflow, or they try native integration but end up falling behind and getting a shit ton of errors.
this leaves a huge gap for if you are able to integrate it and verify its outputs, which if you’re familiar with technology, is piss easy.
as it relates to the economy, it is the flood and the lifeboat imo.
as far as engineering goes, code by nature is very delicate, while ai can write seemingly decent code with robust parameters in place, it is inevitably going to show its delicacy vs human development. and to set it up properly is an adjacent skill to programming, how much of an engineer’s time it really saves is hard to say. it’s a godsend for those who can’t code though.

>Why would it not be able to do a task at a job
Because it doesnt have a body, has no meaningful way to integrate with non native systems, hallucinates randomly, already costs more than a human to do basic research tasks (and its being subsidized lol), and depends on access to clean verified datastores.

AI will be an effective research tool for professionals across the board until the true costs are revealed, then it will be relegated to limited capacities.

Thats all.

I think the problem is fine tuning your brain on chat outputs actually reduces your ability to think, reducing you to uttering phrases that sound like thinking,

You are right. AI literally killed all "intellectual" white-collar jobs.
We don't need to study anymore. We even don't have to be literate. AI models now can use your voice from microphone as input and speak to you in headphones or speakers. You don't need to learn how to read and write. Just speak with some smart speakers with AI inside.

MSc degrees are pretty rote. The exercises in the book are, in a very literal sense, textbook.
Answering those questions and explaining how those answers were reached are both things LLMs are very good at. It's essentially a RAG task with some simple synthesis.
That's not to say that LLMs aren't good at more novel things, but that this particular task is not a good measure of whether AI is useful in other settings.

>>109283240
homework is made to be solved, based on known problems, simplified down to one domain
actual work also involves figuring out what the actual problem is, whether it's even solvable as stated, which of the multiple possible partial solutions is preferable, and so on

That said, there is lots of routine, boring shit that can be automated.

Even a secretary has to deal with a large variance of cases: genuine clients, vendors, angry customers, scammers, etc. each with their own personalities and problems. If it’s so easy you should be able to make it happen and sell it to some small business right? Turns out it’s much harder than it looks on the surface

They aren't because nobody knows how to automate them.
