I’ll bite. I don’t disagree that an LLM could make a far less skilled person able to do a job requiring more skills. But, which jobs do you feel could be entirely replaced by just an LLM?
The one's where output quality doesn't matter, so basically it is good at the bullshit parts of the job.
OK, I understand… But maybe tell me what the job is? I’m struggling to get anyone to actually answer a question. Maybe I should go ask an LLM 🙃
TPS reports, documents that justify your job, and anything that pads your OKR metrics. Being judged on code quality via code comments? Have AI up that word count. Need more engagement on your marketing campaign? Use AI to make a mythical tai chi master to hawk your product.
So, no actual job titles just a bunch of sarcastic mumbo-jumbo? I’m willing to have a real conversation about this but you actually have to participate and not be a dick
I might be making fun of the product but I am serious about how it is being used.
I’m trying to get this down to some real job titles that can be “completely replaced by an LLM,” but I keep running into the problem where no one can actually name one—without tossing in a TPS report, mmmkay.
I guess you could say customer service but then again, it's not really replacing that so much as adding another barrier.
Well, automated phone systems have existed for a long time, as have “chat bots” in some fashion. I’m all for solving my problem without a person, so I’m not opposed to these—but even I end up just screaming “agent, operator, fuck you!” More often than not.
I suppose that tier 1 customer support could certainly be considered one of the most impacted job titles
