@dacig a summary of what I think AI will impact:
* objective of AI: increase dollar value capture through automation of tasks replacing human work activity

* human tasks using LANGUAGE will be hit first. Software creation is being impacted now.

* in some time in the future, tasks that use or output language will be automated using higher level instructions (detailed design specifications, test assertions and output verification)

* because software is eating the world, every task using software will be impacted by AI in both speed to market and breadth of scope.

* as the AI allows more difficult problems to be described, more specialised software can be made.

* human work that requires co-ordination b/w people (middle management, comms) will be removed and impacted as tasks reduce head count.

* human work requiring physical activity will be (future) eaten by specifically trained humanoid robots (car makers)

Now I caveat all of the AI replacement trajectory with cost. If replacement of work costs more than workers, this will collapse the AI market. This will delay, but not stop AI replacing humans and will be limited by the “effectiveness of Large Language Models” and cost.

So the Oligarchy class want what I call #ZeroHourWork for the #WhiteCollar and try to replace #BlueCollar workers. The Q I ask is, is AI now Stephensons Rocket in the Age of Steam? 🚂

BlackRock's CEO: "We're going to run out of electricians."

Huang's quote: "You don't need a PhD in computer science to make a great living from AI."

The robots need buildings. Buildings need humans.

"America is losing jobs in blue-collar industries, something that last occurred during the initial shock of the early pandemic and the depths of the Great Recession. The country is down 65k industrial jobs over the last year, a dramatic reversal from 2024, when the US added a lower-than-usual but still respectable 250k jobs. A major slowdown has hit all blue-collar sectors this year, including construction, mining, and utilities—though manufacturing and transportation are driving the vast majority of US job losses.

In total, employment across trades and industry is now down 123k from the all-time peak reached in early 2025 and has been declining nearly every month since February. This is likely underselling the damage as well, since preliminary estimates for upcoming annual jobs data revisions suggest an additional loss of 100k manufacturing jobs and 30k construction jobs.

Manufacturing jobs have been suffering the longest, with employment declining for more than two years straight at this point as the sector’s share of the total US workforce shrinks to a record low of less than 8%. Transportation equipment (mostly car manufacturing) and electronics lead the losses, but the decline has been remarkably broad-based, with all major industries except metals & nonmetallic minerals bleeding jobs. In total, the US has now lost more than 200k manufacturing jobs compared to the recent peak in early 2023."

"Allentown" is a song by American singer #BillyJoel and the lead track on Joel's 1982 album #TheNylonCurtain. Released as the album's second single, it was accompanied by a conceptual #musicVideo. Upon its release, and especially in subsequent years, "Allentown" emerged as an anthem of #bluecollar America, representing both the aspirations and frustrations of America's working class in the late 20th century. It protested against the decline of the rust belt.

Two in five #GenZers are pursuing blue-collar #work, rejecting the collegiate path and learning trades, according to a May 2025 survey of 1,434 young adults by #Resume Builder.

#Vocational and #tradeprograms are booming, federal data shows.

One reason is a perception that #bluecollarjobs pay well, and that #college costs are becoming prohibitive.
