The following submission statement was provided by /u/Gari_305:

From the article 

Music producer Robbie Hiser is confident there will always be a place for creatives like him even though he taught artificial intelligence some of the tricks of his trade. 

Hiser trained AI for Mercor, a company that works to make AI models like ChatGPT or Claude better in a wide variety of subjects from finance to poetry. The multibillion-dollar company has assembled more than 100,000 freelancers in a wide range of industries, available to teach AI what they know about their fields. 

But Hiser and other trainers said they don't believe they're training themselves out of a job. Hiser thinks creative work like great songwriting, for example, will always require a human touch.

"AI doesn't have any life experience to pull from," he said. "An AI never had a girlfriend break up with it."

Still, nearly three-fourths of Americans now fear AI is coming for our jobs, according to a Pew Research study. And a September report from McKinsey Global Institute found AI could force 11 million U.S. workers into new careers by 2035.

All of Ellison family's wealth is dependent on the stock price of Oracle.  Oracle has taken on massive debt to build AI data centers.  CBS is going to be spending a lot of time trying to sell people on AI.

Its actually insane the narrative they are pushing. 

The AI companies want you to buy their product, and at the exact same time, they literally threaten you that AI will take your job.
