AI won't replace compliance. It will just let a person do more reviews. No company is ever going to trust an AI to do the job because you can't sue an AI. Gotta have a person to sign on the dotted line.
I heard the president of the AMA say on NPR that doctors spend two hours doing paperwork for every hour they spend seeing patients. Maybe AI will do some of the paperwork, but an AI won't do the actual diagnosis unless the AI can get malpractice insurance--though they will suggest a diagnosis and flag things on an MRI or CT scan.
I agree that AI will facilitate a lot of jobs rather than do them. It may allow people to do things more easily similarly to how with computers, businesses have eliminated a lot of administrative assistants as most people now make their own travel arrangements, order office supplies (in the past I would have had to have an admin asst order me a work iPhone, now I just go to an internal web page) and we arrange meetings on our own.
That said, Laura posted a while ago that college graduates are underemployed longer. I wonder if this is connected to the elimination of lower level jobs in my field as technology does a lot of simpler tasks. Being an admin assistant was my on-ramp to my career. In the software projects I’m part of we no longer have junior analysts who keep track of requirements. Now everyone one puts their work into applications that track it all and we can all see what’s happening.
On the lack of fitness for the military. Malnutrition among WW2 recruits and draftees was one of the reasons for the implementation of lunches in schools. I have to wonder if we are not reaping the effects of Ronald “ketchup is a vegetable” Reagan.
Have you read Kim Foster? She has an excellent piece on how big food infiltrates our public schools and influences what kinds of foods people become accustomed to eating.
