What are people’s thoughts on the large scale layoffs in automating with AI?

I ask because (I’m not aure if this is a very bad joke on behalf of my boss) that we will be driving this internally - in to an organisation thay already has cultural issues that lead to a skills shortage and the inability to attract talent to solve the main core business continuity and stability issues.

Anyone elses board under the same delusional AI cloud?

How do you ensure that AI covering such a large portion of the operations us unbiased?
How do you ensure the power economics required by AI doesn’t resilt in the AI company power demand becoming the largest customer of electrical power)? In short big power customers = large lobbying within parliament?
The reliance on AI cloud vendors that are replacing a large portion of workforce is that it presents a ever growing dependance on a foreign country to operate the economy.

No sooner than you automate something in our place, they invent a new convoluted manual process to break it, requiring loads of manual work.

I reckon there are a lot of places like that.


Well they say that AI will replace automation first, so AI paperclip in excel spreadsheets filled in by manual people and then actioned by manual processes - I can see that really causing issues.
 
Going on past experience our IT will likely lock out all those features for "security".

Given chatgpt is a security risk and even in a controlled closed environment data used to train AI requires security, not to mention the GDPR aspects of customer data.. it’s likely to be quite a while before we see data processed by AI.
More likely AI gets used for optimisation of problems or designs.
