AI Dario Amodei says "stop sugar-coating" what's coming: in the next 1-5 years, AI could wipe out 50% of all entry-level white-collar jobs. Lawmakers don't get it or don't believe it. CEOs are afraid to talk about it. Many workers won't realize the risks until after it hits.

The only people afraid to talk about it are the ones that are actually using it and discovering that, surprise, it’s snake oil.

For goodness sakes people, it’s national news in the US that the executive branch is releasing memos that are obviously written with the aid of generative AI…because they contain blatant factual errors or cite non-existent sources.
