Oh nah, I just use that term incorrectly to mean, its likely someone somewhere has lost their job directly because of AI. I've heard a couple horror stories I'm biased toward believing about copywriting and e.g. video game concept art.
There's anecdotes [0] [1], surveys [2], analyses [3], direct statements from companies after layoffs (Duolingo and Klarna for example), a decrease in job postings and a decrease in freelance work. But HN just shrugs and says none of this counts because it's not hard empirical data (as if data about jobs was ever reliable). So let's just keep pretending everything's fine and tell the people who lost their jobs to stop gaslighting us.
have writing and art really fallen? aside from stupid SEO drivel writing, that is
