Vets are safe.

I design and create expensive, one of a kind custom wedding gowns.

I am both a valuable, high skilled, artisan and personlized, luxury, once in a lifetime, emotional experience.

As long as there are people spending money on their weddings who do not want cheap, overpriced, mass produced in chinese sweatshops crap, I will have a market.

AI can do parts of my job but there are some nuanced human judgment parts that AI can't do. It couldn't even suss out that when I responded "OK" I meant yes. Way too literal.

First responders are safe.

But nope, still have to work it out, then rework it, then change my mind because there's a better solution (because it takes a few false moves to realize that). I wish AI could get permitting documents together, figure out how to detail that gutter integrated into the roof so nobody has to ever look at it, etc.. I wish it could tell me if the mason we eventually hire is skilled enough to do that crazy corner I want to design because some of them are really good and some are just not.

This might be one of the best use cases for AI in your particular field but it is going to actually require you to hire someone to put it together for you.

Well, the issue with permitting documents is that each jurisdiction has different requirements - from how the sheets are formatted to differing building codes. AND each jurisdiction is continually evolving and changing the requirements.
We've always done these documents ourselves which is why we know this. The most annoying part is that it's constantly changing. And then there's the mood of the plan examiner you get assigned. Some be just fine with stuff, and others will get persnickety. It's kind of like trying to mail a package at the post office internationally.

I can see smaller companies just not even bothering with big HR staff though, they can get it through contractors and AI within the next decade. But big companies are always going to want someone to walk in to the conference room and explain the hiring and firing imo.

What is AI doing to replace actual staff?

It’s going to get my job for sure. But it’s going to take a little more time. We’re saving up over the next few years.

There's a learning curve with using A.I. similar to when people first saw automobiles and couldn't figure out how a steam or ICE engine and drivetrain could help them farm, transport, etc. and refused to give up their mules and horses.

I am a surgical nurse in the OR.

The robots we use now very much need human oversight now in order to intervene.

Considering how there are around 500,000 to 700,000 deaths in the USA annually, that are attributed to human medical errors, and is the #1 cause of death in the USA now, I'd say it couldn't get any worse with AI.

No I’m not worried at all. I would welcome AI taking my job I am tired.

More and more people are turning to A.I. for exactly what you do, and more such as psychotherapy, and finding it much more helpful than human professionals obviously, as A.I. can be like millions of professionals all rolled into one.

Same. Public Health Nurse.

I don't think AI can do my current job, but I think it will soon be able to replace a lot of what junior staff under me do. I could afford to retire but I keep working to save money in case my kids can't get jobs.
