Here's what I think will happen, and this is totally my opinion. AI won't replace all of humanity anytime soon. But it will definitely take a lot of jobs. Entry-level positions are in serious danger.
Since AI is getting really good at creative work, small artists and beginners will struggle the most. But here's something I mentioned before that's even scarier than job loss: we're going to lose our mental abilities. Things like creativity and problem-solving skills.
Think about it. Most experts today started as interns or in entry-level jobs. That's how people learn and grow. But if AI takes those starter positions, how will the next generation gain experience? How will they become experts?
People are going to depend on AI more and more. You might not like this idea now, but AI will soon become as essential as the internet. We won't be able to avoid it.
Here's where it gets really scary. AI will create tons of fake news and propaganda. Most of us already don't have the patience to read original sources and think for ourselves. We want quick summaries and easy answers.
In the future, we'll depend on AI to summarize everything for us. That means the companies that control AI will control what we know. They'll decide what information we get and what we don't.
We're seeing this right now. Ask ChatGPT about controversial topics, and it often skips important details. When you push for more information, it says the question goes against their policies.
The same thing happens with other AI systems. DeepSeek, which is Chinese-owned, carefully avoids topics that might upset the Chinese government. Each AI company has its own rules about what it will and won't tell you.
This means spreading propaganda and changing history will be easier than ever before. The companies that train these AI systems will shape what billions of people believe is true.
But maybe I'm being too negative. Maybe the people in power will make sure AI companies tell the truth. Maybe there won't be any fake news in the future. Maybe everyone will become smarter and more informed thanks to AI. Maybe we'll all live happily ever after.
What do you think? Am I being too pessimistic, or are these real concerns we should worry about?
Thank you for your time.
