  • On one hand, there’s a lot of people whose jobs can actually be replaced by AI. A lot of office work is just middle managers justifying their existence with headcount that just move paper around desks. There’s a lot of humanities graduates - and science, and engineering, and whatever - that are in bullshit jobs. If I could earn a good living doing trades, I’d switch careers. Too old, and too embedded, and I’m not an entrepreneur. And I work in an engineering/tech space that actually accomplishes stuff.

    But AI replacing philosophy, absolutely the hell not. I can’t think of an academic position that can truly be replaced by AI.
