AI Advancements and Economic Implications
OpenAI's upcoming models are predicted to revolutionize user interactions, enabling complex tasks and deeper relationships. However, concerns arise regarding AI's impact on the economy, with estimates suggesting significant job displacement and economic shifts by 2030.
