Experts warn that AI could widen the gap between high-skilled and low-skilled workers. The article explains how automation may disproportionately benefit those who design and control AI systems, while displacing routine jobs. It also raises concerns about wealth concentration among tech companies. My view is that this is one of the most realistic risks of AI. Technology historically creates inequality before society adapts.
Will governments actually act in time to balance this out?

This feels very likely

We've seen this pattern before

Heard it before.. in the Guardian lol.

Education will be key

Could get worse before it gets better

No retraining being made available. Its a car crash waiting to happen and they haven't fitted seat belts.

Pretty much where I landed after trying a few things. Give it a go and report back.

The useful stuff is harder to spot because there is so much noise around it.
Opinions are my own. Obviously.

That is my view too if I am being straight. Cannot wait for the game to settle it.

Clever Erin

Yep, agree with that. Story of my life that.

The honest answer is usually more complicated than the question suggests, which is why these threads are worth reading properly.

Cheers.

Most AI tools I have tried are impressive for a session and then disappear from my routine.
