AI can’t solve everything because, although most things can be described and explained. Most other have to be experienced. And even though something sounds nice in text, once experienced we can say if it’s good or not. For example, an AI can create a recipe that sounds good, but it will never be able to ground those choices on experience. Only through other people’s experiences combined, which might not be great in the end. And it won’t ever produce and adjust it based on its experience. The same for a lot of other things that AI is meant to « replace ».

I agree with most of your post, except the last bit. AI replacing human workers is not black and white. AI will not replace all human artists, for example, but with AI, artists are needed less often. Whether this is good or bad, I don’t know.

  It’s true and it happened for example with tailors. Before a lot of people were wearing suits and there was a lot of tailors. Now with industries and cheap clothes, tailors are rare but not dead. There is a few tailors compared to before but the skills are now a luxury and those suits are really expensive compared to the industrial made ones. It’s probably going to be the same circle, the quality will go down, the workers with it as well. But the ones remaining might have the opportunity to move up and become a luxury. It happened to most domains touched by industries, luxury developed (shoes, bags, clothes, food etc). Whether or not AI worker will level up the quality or dilute the quality in the low end we don’t know yet Edit: As regards to art, I stumbled across this ad : https://youtu.be/GuieFpIauN0 https://youtu.be/GuieFpIauN0 which is impressive given the final "cost" to produce it. I wonder how much it would have cost a human to do it from scratch. The quality is not amazing, but the message is there. Art is concerned as well, why would I learn how to do this if no one will pay humans to create it ?
