Not all of the things we lose will be sad, though. An AI researcher has the potential to be more thorough and less biased when it comes to digging up and interpreting resources.
Technically, if we had true AI, then yes, but the LLMs we have right now are build on an unbelievable amount of poverty wage labor. We're talking sweat shops of Kenyans working for $2 an hour. As long as ChatGPT needs an army of wage slaves to function then I refuse to consider it a real AI
Those jobs are also being replaced by AI. Modern AIs are trained on synthetic data, which is data that was generated from source material specifically for training purposes by other AIs. AIs reformat, rewrite, and vet the source material more reliably and efficiently than humans.
