So you're saying AI is not replacing jobs at all?
Inference providers have been charging per token forever.
AI is just a suped up MENACE matchbox computer, a superpowerful autocomplete. If that's your job title, you're boned.
Honestly, there is little evidence that it actually has (successfully).
Of course, anything at a world wide scale will be true at some percentage; however, I doubt AI has actually replaced the labour of many. Even Meta gave up on pretending this and they are now firing people just to free money to pour on AI, not because AI is actually replacing those people
