Will human labor ultimately be limited to growing machine learning models?
The answer in the AI era is, "Money doesn't trickle down, but the effects of machine learning models created by pouring in money and information do trickle down."
Humans serve as dedicated translators, inputting human world perception into the software world.
We are raising the "giant" called AI, born from collective knowledge.
Regarding the question of whether human labor will only be about growing machine learning models, I think it will attract uninteresting answers like "it won't be only about that." Just like how postcards haven't disappeared even though email is more convenient, it is difficult to reduce most things to 0%. So the answer of whether it will be reduced to 0% is likely to be true with high probability, but it lacks information. The income of people working for machine learning models increases as the degree to which the models generate money increases. I think we are currently in an era where that is the case, but when it reaches a state where working for machine learning models is much more profitable than working for humans, is there value in that "profit"? Money may become a very weak asset. Although this may be a bit of a leap in the conversation, I just wanted to write it down for now.
This is extremely important, and even on Twitter, I see discussions mainly about the "present" and the "goal," but in reality, the transitional period is hell, so how do we overcome that? It's like thinking about how to survive that. If we can achieve it, well, it's utopia. kawahiii I strongly feel that (as the Japanese government, which I know best) the Japanese Government is not well-prepared for this. tkgshn There is a time lag between the collapse of the labor market and the price reduction of groceries, so personally, I think this is a critical issue. As someone involved in local communities, I feel that we can work on addressing this. kawahiii
