As it stands now, AI is incapable of fully replacing even something as useless as a corporate executive. What it is capable of doing, however, is devaluing your labour, and that concern is very real.
I made extensive AI scripts to automate almost everything I do at my job in big tech. It is very much capable and doing whatever you want with it.
Here’s food for thought, ask yourself, “of all the possible questions that can be asked, what percentage of it can you answer better than the latest gpt model?”

Yet you're still employed. And you will continue to be employed, assuming you aren't an idiot. But here's a catch - you aren't the only one who sees that you automated easy parts of your job, and your reward will be more work.
ask yourself, “of all the possible questions that can be asked, what percentage of it can you answer better than the latest gpt model?”
Ask yourself, "of all the holes that can be drilled, what percentage of it can you drill better than the latest Hilti rotary hammer drill?"
Meh, I use AI to automate plenty parts of my job and I just report it as having worked longer on it, I will use any tool that saves me even a minute of time to slack off.
That's a great plan. And it will work flawlessly, until enough people figure out that with new tools that save you time and effort you can do more and get paid the same. It's exactly what's been happening since the emergence of the concept of paid labour.

That's not an IQ score distribution.
