A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Sorry, but warehouse pickers and packers are not, and will never be at risk from LLMs.

Because they're already obsolete from standard 30 year old robotics.

Also anything requiring precision, suited and accuracy isnt ever going to be viable for LLMs to replace. The technology isn't designed for that and is not capable of meeting a human. E.G. for general automaton: US automotive giants Ford and GM tried to go fully automated for production in the 1980s and 1990s, but reverted some of the automation when it turned out that their senior machinists were better and faster than the robots, saving the companies more than a million dollars per person per year.
