Not sure I really believe that...

But, do imagine all of the "low hanging fruit" will disappear.
Which will likely include most entry level positions.

I don't think folks have thought this through, completely. Entry
level jobs do more than bring folks up to speed on the technology
and their job rolls. But, also, how an organization works and
expectations that must be met (even those that aren't spelled
out in an employee handbook).

I recall a company I worked for transitioning to JIT manufacturing.
EVERYONE went to training (even the line workers). Because the
technology was a tiny part of the transformation -- the mindset
was the biggest hurdle to overcome. "If you need an item in
3 hours, then EXPECT it in 3 hours (don't pad your requirement
to *4* hours!)"

I also see lots of PRACTICAL skill set deficiencies -- things
you can't teach other than at *the* job (not *a* job). E.g.,
you may not have access to the resources that you "need" at
the times you would LIKE to have them! How do you dynamically
adjust your workload so you're not unproductive during those times?

Software folks will have it particularly hard because they likely
won't know the range of problems that they will have to address
and likely will have little application domain knowledge to ease the
way forward; if you can't tell a chatbot WHAT to write, then the
code it generates will be no better than what YOU would have written.

I imagine similar issues in other fields. The "apprentice level"
will be elided and an emphasis on "journeymen" and "masters".
For them, AI will be a blessing as they won't have to rely on
inexperienced "apprentices" to do all the grunt work! And,
spend their time looking for all the familiar problems that
will likely be in those "products".

This was paarticularly amusing:
"Seventy-four per cent of CIOs are either losing money or breaking even
on their AI investments."
So, maybe the CIOs are the first ones that should be replaced?
