Sam Altman said it, not me

GPT 4.5 is right around the corner, friends.

Total automation is not necessarily total elimination as some of it is displacement only. But a large chunk will be total elimination.

100 million white collar jobs are a lot. India has a few million white collar jobs in total. Even America doesn't have 100 million white collar jobs.

PS: This is now a third-hand rumour.

Take it with a pinch of salt.

Wait. Aren't all rumours atleast second-hand?

WTF is a first-hand rumour? Something I'm propagating myself?

Altman's claim is as absurd as a Bollywood movie plot. India doesn't even have 100 million white collar jobs to lose. Get real, Altman.

He is talking about the world. There are 200-500 million white collar jobs in the world.

Wait wait you read too much into it. He or she don't mention loss of WHITE collar jobs ONLY A lot of automation will take away BLUE collar jobs as well. But then 100 million is huge. We have a population to feed

GPT 4.5 is a software agent.

IMO it cannot take away blue-collar jobs from a computer screen as of yet.

But yes, it will come for blue-collar jobs too in the not too distant future when Figure.ai has built good automatable robot chassis.

Hopefully humour. I don't want to see a world like this.
