(60,762 posts)I don't (knowingly) use AI at all. I don't even know how. I'm sure my company does. With a 25 man IT department, I have to assume it would be impossible to maintain their work without it.
Nonetheless, our activities depend on people, period. We are still hiring and expanding. When I joined in 1975, we were maybe twelve people in out early twenties. At 23, I was one of the older ones. Today, we are over a thousand people worldwide with very little turnover. To my knowledge, every single one of us is a living person. Max Headroom doesn't even visit. On my visits back to Dallas, I meet with real people, not zoomed images. I suppose the day is coming when AI will be combined with 3D printers for artificial people as well, but we're not there yet. Maybe, after Trump, the Republicans are hard at work on it. I'm sure the image is to their liking, but the odors perceived in proximity would be eliminated with the AI version. They could probably even program him to remain awake and speak English, although that would be a dead giveaway that something had been altered.
