Be a hater all you want, AI's here to stay

AI gets things wrong, it kills jobs, and when the bubble bursts, it will take the economy down with it.

When all's said and done, however, AI will still be standing and fundamentally change our lives and work.

Get used to it.

I get it.

There's a lot to hate about AI.

Personally, I'm both an AI user and an AI hater.

Yet at the end of the day, it doesn't matter how much you or I dislike it.

AI isn't going away, and it will end up stronger than ever.

Let's start from the top, shall we? First, AI has been destroying jobs and will continue to do so.

Research house Forrester, for example, predicts that by 2030 AI will wipe out 10.4 million US jobs.

That's 6.1 percent of all US jobs if you're counting at home.

Tech companies are already filling unemployment lines with one cut after another.

Amazon, Oracle, Microsoft, Meta – the list goes on and on.

Sure, some companies have finally figured out that AI can't replace as many people as the C-suite might want, so now they're hiring people back.
