I lost my job to ChatGPT and was made obsolete. I was out of work for 3 months before taking a new job passing out samples at grocery stores. - eviltoast

    At the end of the day if an AI can do the job to an acceptable standard a human doesn’t need to be doing it.

    As you say it’s happened to countless industries and will continue to happen.

      Except that the ‘AI’ is fed by the work of actual humans, and as time goes on, they will be trained more and more on the imperfect output of other AIs, which will eventually result in their output being total bizarre crap. Meanwhile, humans stopped training at whatever task since they couldn’t be paid to do it anymore, so there’s no new human material.
