White collar jobs are all about to become obsolete. What are you doing to prepare?

I'm going to use AI to do all the drudge work so I can finally do creative stuff. I can't believe people think this is a bad thing.

You can't "believe" that other people in existence do not share your assessment on something?

Yes I could google it, but since many here are totally convinced it's happening, I want to see what you're reading.


You comes off kind of passive aggressive. When you say with “Yeah, I could just Google it,” you admit you do not really need help, so it feels like you are testing us rather than really asking. Saying “since many here are totally convinced” hints that you think we are gullible, and “totally” ramps up your sarcasm. “I want to see what you’re reading” flips the burden on us prove a point. You are scoffing while pretending to be polite.

So, go to google and do a search.


Not PP but, yeah, if you’re going to start a thread like this you should be able to defend it.


No one has to do anything but stay black and die.

I'm the PP who asked for the link. It's because I may not be seeing the most convincing arguments. I honestly do want to understand how and when AI will displace white collar work.

To prove it, let me offer this link on RPA from my google search. This describes what AI in white collar work looks like, but I've not seen a clear breakdown of how this will displace white collar work.

I said “should,” not has to, but thanks for confirming this thread is based on nothing.

Logically fallacy--saying that no one needs to answer your rhetorical questions does not mean the information at hand doesn't exist.

Practicing law. That’s what I’m doing to prepare. AI can make discovery easy and help write a brief (that I cite check myself!) and do other mundane things that make junior associate and doc review jobs harder to find. But AI can’t negotiate a contract, do a deposition, appear in Court, or give due process. It definitely doesn’t have a law license.

So no, all white collar jobs are not disappearing.

Red herring—trying to distract from the fact that you can’t produce anything in response to PP saying he wanted to see what you’re reading.

What a pathetic thread.

I am pulling my kids out of private school and moving to locl area and publics asap, investing everything. Still figuring out what to recommend my kids learn to give them a shot of viable career but mainly hunkering down and saving.

I am also not a doomsday prepper type at all - I work in project management. But it’s clear as day in all our work.


A.I. will do most any cubicle/office/remote job soon.

Those are dead end fields for the most part. Many will still exist, but in small numbers of actual humans doing them, so they will be highly competitive and hard to get.

Plan accordingly if you are under 50.

Akshually, it certainly could very soon. All of those. The first one is already being done. The others will be soon.

No one said they couldn't produce anything. They are choosing not to address a scoffing question.

You think the thread is pathetic. I don't think it is. So I guess we cancel each other out. Thread, continue on!

Case Study: RPA in Action
A leading insurance company implemented UiPath to automate claims processing, which was previously a time-consuming, error-prone task. By using RPA, the company reduced the processing time from days to hours, with bots handling routine data extraction and document processing. Employees who were once detained with paperwork could now focus on providing better customer service, handling complex claims, and improving customer relationships. Far from replacing jobs, automation made the employees more effective and valuable.

They’ll be just fine.


They are going to train robots to do those jobs soon. Read AI 2027.
