As a product manager who has been paying an overseas developer $4,000 a month, I'm getting quite close to replace him with a $100 a month Claude Max subscription. These high subscription costs are nothing compared to the low level employees that will be replaced or supplemented.
Oh yes for sure. That’s what is scary. A while back Google did a demo at their I/O event for a IA secretary. It was able to take calls for you, manage your agenda, etc… In 5 years I am sure you will have a secretary plus other jobs packed into this all included high cost subscription and AI will take more and parts of our professional and personal lives. It will be useful but oh boy it’s going to look dystopian.
