Can we throw in instagram influencers too ???

Is this a job?

I think there's always going to be money to be made from this so it's going nowhere. As infuriating as it is.

Elon...is that you?

Some people cannot access or even know how to use the internet but want to book holidays. Also it can help to speak to an adviser about a holiday to give you more ideas.

someone still uses typewriters apart from Tom Hanks?

I was just talking with my friend about this the other day. It does seem that apps and streaming are replacing tv and radio. Kinda miss the "wacky weatherpeople" from back in the day though

This is awful. Siri is powered by the financial muscle of Apple and it still can't understand my accent.

In the US and it would be really nice to have a more straightforward way to buy a car, regardless of how it happens. (For any not familiar with the system, we do have listed prices, but those can be negotiated and historically men tend to get better final prices.)

Outside of *very* small micro-markets, hasn't this already happened? Clear Channel (and Sinclair, I believe) bought up most, if not all, of the large regional stations since the early '90's. They have worked their way down to progressively smaller stations. College stations were being bought up last decade.

This has already been happening gradually over the last century

That'd also mean a serious detriment in quality for the genre, though. A lot of those hand-drawn details aided by AI/CG are what make animated media so amazing and full of life.

Sorry most of the computer generated animation is trash. At least the stuff that isn't used to enhance live action movies. For me it's about the art styles, I don't like the current ones.

you will probably see illustrators and other artists go first then soon followed by animation. There is also AI generated voices too, so voice over work and dare i say music may fall victim as well?

*sigh* I wish studios would do classic animation again. Seeing only the CGI stuff nowadays makes me sick...

Well, what is happening now it's that we (the artists) are raising funds all over the world to implement legislation about how the AI companies get their resources. At the moment they are simply stealing artists work. To train an AI to animate as a real person, they should steal tons of animation video and they would never ever get what a real animator does. I'm a concept artist, I've been studing animation for the past year, I'm not very good but my teachers are real industry pro. Good animation, as good illustration or design, comes from the animator's own experience, it's not about using a software, it's about micro movements that an AI with no intentions will never be able to replicate. AI can just copy. They can mix things that already exists together, but the brilliant ideas that "regular" people percive without even knowing, only another human can come up with them.

Since the ruling that AI art cannot be copyrighted, I doubt this one. I doubt disney wants to give away free intellectual property.

A little bitter here are we?

this is such a s**t take

I don't think so. Even the best copy generators produce content that needs time-consuming tweaking. In many cases it would have been faster to just write it from scratch. And then there's the campaign development/conception part of a copywriter's job. That takes tons of research, creative thought and collaboration.

Never gonna happen! Just take a look at famous, successful or rich people. They all wear MECHANICAL watches. Classic never dies, in fact just gets more expensive as they age. Try to find a vintage Omega, Rolex or Tudor under $5000, and they are just a silly example. There are automatic watches that cost more then $100.000.

I don't trust ATM deposits. I once had the machine eat my money and say it wasn't adding it to the account, and it took a long while to ever see that cash again. I am officially paranoid.

That is kind of scary too because you can have a computer create any kind of photo, even ones depicting innocent people doing crimes. There is a software that can mimic people’s voices too.

Noooo. Too many people should be banned from self-serve.

Nope I want a licensed person who knows where things are.

Learn 3D printing. That is replacing most machinist positions now.

we have this already in SA. Most of our insurance companies have apps. Latest one you just walk around your car doing a pano or video and they give you a quote which you accept. It then asks for credit card details. Done. It's great. no talking to human idiot call centre people.

not in africa. Our strongest economy (SA) has major problems supplying electricity merely to citizens and businesses; forget cars for now.

Again this depends on country. You need good infrastructure and trustworthy roads. Our roads have lots of potholes which requires an intelligent driver to avoid.

Language is such a nuanced thing. Translators will be required for some considerable time.

not at all. As our economy grows and people need to do tax returns, there will be more demand.

I am not convinced by this. As a programmer, I want to be able to strictly control what my app does. I do not want drag and drop code blocks. I do not want inexplicable crashes from objects I have not coded myself. I do not want backdoors. Forget it. I barely trust things that let me drag and drop UI elements. Never mind "hey siri make me an app that does xyz"

I'm not aware of any management automation. What does this refer to?

Sure! I wanna see a robot do that. I need a good laugh.
