"I can't see it taking over in my industry, but I do think ChatGPT will put a lot of <insert name of profession you know very little about> out of work"

@jasongorman Over on Quora, people in my circles keep asking whether a.i. and chatbots will take over their job. Multiple times a day.

I have used ChatGPT and am quite impressed about its ability to answer questions on a range of technical topics, and have been able to implement a few solutions with it. But it isn't perfect, and it cannot be perfect, because it's just a language model: it will repeat human mistakes and won't even realize it.
