No clue why this article is being downvoted to hell. Is this not relevant to c/technology? 🤷🏻

Worked at Lowe's last year. No AI is going to replace what any of us were doing except maybe making the scheduling lady's life easier, but we would still need her.

People still need to buy household goods, need advice from experts, need help and labor in 1,000 ways that AI cannot replace.

Until we have relatively inexpensive, multipurpose robots, much of this talk is moot. Humans are the AR-15s of the animal kingdom. Not the best at anything, weak in many ways, but we're reliable, tough and suited for many roles. I cannot imagine an AI powered robot that could work all the tasks I was faced with.
