Right now it’s helping less talented people become more talented. Eventually that may change but for many jobs, laws prevent AI from replacing people. It can assist but cannot replace. My kid does insurance claims. They decided to have AI do some of the works. Turns out by law a person has to do the work. The fines were severe. Also it was wrong most of the time.
One day they’ll get there but it’s not impacting jobs from what I’ve seen and it’s what I sell for a Fortune 500 company. We don’t even hint it would replace people as they just isn’t what it does right now. We say it enhances people.

You get how that works right though? If you employ 10 people for a task at your business, then get a new tool that lets your employees process twice as many clients, you can cut your workforce in half. It’s not really about replacing every person with AI, it’s just another way to automate and reduce your workforce to concentrate wealth. It’s nice that you haven’t seen that, but I certainly have. I run a manufacturing business and I’ve already seen artists replaced and staff slashed at a dozen of my suppliers. Maybe not all because of AI specifically, but it’s certainly a significant component.
The fact that your boss tells you to disguise it marketing speak doesn’t mean the companies you’re pitching this to don’t understand what ‘enhancing people’ means.

Sure make a company that successfully done it. Nobody has pulled that off yet.
