I don't know.
There is a ton of corporate email pushers and power point makers which could be replaced by an AI model I think.
The current issue they are struggling with is figuring out who they can blame when it fucks up. At some point they will land on an answer that to that. We are literally in the age of people copy pasting AI output into emails. At some point that's gotta give.
I mean, yes, but they can't be replaced by AI because AI does the job better, they can be replaced by AI because they produce nothing of actual value.
We are beyond even that. It will read, write the reply, and send. There doesn't even need to be someone to copy and paste anything.
