No. I am constantly baffled at these predictions. I have been using LLMs, they are fun to use and decent as code assistants. But they are very far of meaningfully replacing a human.
People extrapolate "LLMs can do some tasks better than humans" to "LLMs can do everything as well as humans"
> but how do people extrapolate from LLMs to a world with no more work?
They accept the words of bullshitters that are deeply invested in Generative AI being the next tech boom as gospel.
