I wouldn't say corner them. The whole point of the AR that I'm working on is to speed up the grunt-level ediscovery process so you don't need a group of JDs to wade through a pile of stuff. Which further chokes out an already crowded legal market since discovery is an easy gig for someone that made it through law school but isn't able to hack it with a larger firm.

But then certain aspects of doc-review have been sent out to call-centers for a decade or so now.

I thought we were talking about AI replacing humans? Why are you bringing up lawyers?

Because I'm not a lawyer, I'm a paralegal. And I'm having my job prospects impacted because there's too many drat attorneys around willing to do my job slightly cheaper because of soul-crushing law school debt.

I think you are a step behind friend, paralegals have been obsolete for a while, the attorneys losing their jobs are next on the chopping block

just lol if you can't afford a real lawyer and need robolawyer. enjoy prison!

Nawh I'm aware that I got in to the game late, which is why I'm trying like hell to get out of it. But even my MAcy's not going to be of much use in a few years.

I think the end goal is to speed things up enough on the front end that all you need at the back end is a single, haggard lawyer with one arm hooked up to a caffeine drip and the other to either a whiskey or some other cheap spirit while they blur their way through all the docs ever. And then on the hour a tube is shoved up their nose to blast a mixture cocaine, modafinil, ritalin, and meth to keep them going.

Yeah, I am actually a big holder of google shares, and I want amazon for exposure, but the company doesn't make any loving money an I can't bring myself to reconcile that.

'AI' in the general sense is different from 'General AIs' or even 'Human-like AI', sometimes you can make a very stupid AI that can automate a job, it doesn't become less of a thing just because that AI isn't generally intelligent

Usually this is a good thing (except for the jobs that it displaces) because if you can easily write a dumb AI to do it it probably wasn't the most stimulating task

I feel bad about talking about AIs replacing everyone for 3 pages straight in a Trump thread, so I made this one to talk about AIs. Computer programs are going to replace us all, some more quickly than others.

Next on the block is truck drivers I think. They wont be replaced entirely over night of course, first they will deskill the job by hiring minimum wage people to mind the automatic trucks. But they will be phased out gradually for full autos in time. several millions of people rely on driving trucks for their living, this is going to be a problem going forward. here is a youtube:

Y'know what?

We got a Brave New World coming ahead, more or less.

The US Midwest's shipping lanes are going to dry up of all human traffic and commerce. Pick a coast or a climate you like and make headway to a region

You want to destroy the machines?

Look to the machines we've created: our masters the banks the media the ad men the military the drug and insurance shillers, the landlords and druglords and phone, tv, and internet lords and everyone else you pay a hefty monthly sum to. Destroy largesse. Create art.

Think of how hosed the system is that we think it's a bad thing that we don't need to waste human brainpower on an increasingly large number of tasks and we want to desperately cling onto them no matter how meaningless because it's the only way to make a living.

Guess we're gonna need some sort of basic income or something I dunno.

When the ideology you've been clinging onto since you read Nietzsche in highschool is under threat by emerging tech the only avenue left is denial and grossly underestimating the rapidity of accelerating innovation; with technology displacing workers and damaging the narrative used to brutalize minorities and the poor what will be left for our conservative's anger?
