[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Eh I have like 5 years left so it’s immaterial to me. But our kids will be affected. They need to build their skills and fast. AI is going to replace the bottom rung highly repeatable low discernment jobs first. While I think AI will absolutely redefine every corporate function I [b]do not believe it’s coming for mid management [/b]and senior roles of any function anytime in the next ten years. [/quote]

Middle management has never been necessary and definitely the most vulnerable to AI advancements in tech. [/quote]

Get out of your text books and actually walk into a manufacturing plant of 800 people. And I’m talking an advanced robotic manufacturing plant. Even with AI advancements there is no way a VP GM is going to directly manage dozens and dozens and hundreds of people. AI is not going to coach you, redirect you, address your personal needs as an employee at least not anytime soon.  It’s the lowest skilled worker that will be replaced. [/quote]

I think the pp meant white collar office jobs.[/quote]

I actually think those middle managers are pretty safe too.  Currently those folks spend a lot of time directing junior people and frankly just redoing crappy work that the junior people do poorly.  The junior people will get replaced by AI and those same middle managers will be the people directing the AI and then checking it and redoing it when it’s crappy.  In most white collar offices, middle managers are the work horses.

On the manufacturing floor, the last 200 years has been a process of reducing the number of people it takes to do any given manufacturing process.  I know lots of people that work on the line and they all say that where there were 15 people thirty years ago, there now are 1-2 because of the increased automation.  It’s true in construction too, to a lesser extent — stuff now comes precut by machine that used to be hand done at the site and similar changes like that.  [/quote]
