Whose societal worth will AI hurt the most?

In today's episode, we delve deep into the potential societal repercussions of AI on different groups. Will nerds feel the brunt or will athletes and the physically strong find their value diminished? Or perhaps the traditionally attractive will find their societal worth questioned? Join us as we explore these questions and understand the dynamics of a world intertwined with AI.

Now that we've put chatgpt4 to the test and seen what AI is capable of, I can't help but ponder on its future impact. Let's be real here, AI is not going to replace everyone. If you've relied on your good looks to get ahead in life, AI isn't about to take your place. I don't care how attractive that silicone AI bot may be, a hot human will always be preferred. So, who will AI replace? Well, I believe it might just replace the nerd. You know who I'm talking about - that person who struggled in high school but managed to find their way in the world with a job that required brainpower and paid decently. Maybe not mind-blowing amounts of money, but a few hundred thousand dollars at the very least. Nerds have been at the bottom rung of society for centuries. Back when society revolved around vikings and warriors, we were nobodies. When peasants and knights ruled the scene, we were still nobodies. Even during the time of tradesmen and seafarers, we were still considered nobodies. Throughout most of history, the ability to read and write was a rare skill. It had little use, so nobody bothered to learn it. Now, before you think I'm excluding the exceptional geniuses like Tesla, Newton, and Einstein, let me clarify. I'm referring to the average nerd with an IQ of 120-140, someone who can excel at intellectually challenging tasks. These are the individuals who become lawyers, radiologists, doctors, MBAs, accountants, reporters, programmers, engineers, and so on. Our worth only began to be recognized when our brainpower and our ability to handle tedium became valuable. This recognition came about in the last century or, at most, the past two centuries. And now, here we are, with Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, and Ilya Sutskever - all three of whom clearly fit the nerd profile - inventing AI and potentially demolishing the one path we had to our newfound worth. Oh, the irony. Now, I understand that these are just my own musings, and I'd love to hear other opinions on the matter. But as it stands, I'm leaning towards the idea that AI might just transport us nerds back to a pre-modern era where we were considered the lowest group in society simply because there was little use for our brainpower. It's an interesting thought, isn't it? We've come so far in terms of recognizing the value of intellectual prowess, only to potentially see it marginalized once again by the rise of AI.
