I think most people underestimate the impact AI will have on society. My best bet is that - within 2 to 5 years - a lot of jobs will be executed cheaper/better using an AI.
Why? Here's an example...
You can already stitch together a script *TODAY* that takes any subject as an input, and creates a YouTube video of yourself as a subject matter expert:
Use AI to generate your outline according to some guiding structure
Have it fill in the details
Use voice style transfer to generate audio in your voice
Generate a deep fake of you by combining a picture or video of you with the audio fragment
Upload the video to YouTube/ post to social media
Ask the AI for a thousand titles that a subject matter expert would talk about, and run the script on each of those titles. You can have thousands of videos of you as a subject matter expert today at the click of a button. TODAY!
What's the impact of ai on society?
Who knows what the impact on society will be within a few years?
The industrialisation turned consumer goods into a commodity, the internet turned knowledge into a commodity, and now AI will turn any job you can do using a computer into a commodity.
What's next? Robots to bridge the gap to the physical world, and then singularity?
There’s real value in discussions like the Food Insecurity Coalition meeting—but trying to lead while jotting everything down can split your focus. That’s where AI-driven assistants shine: https://www.sembly.ai/blog/ai-teammates-features-and-functions/ shows how they can capture dialogue, summarize action items, and leave you free to engage meaningfully, knowing the follow-up is handled.
