That you've just said now, that AI can replace how many people about five different positions I've already resistance, and I know that you've thought a lot about this: the resistance to AI not connected to that. In other words, there is a human impulse, a human.
Reflex to protect other humans from the possibility that humans can be replaced, right? Just hearing those words, I just felt something jump inside of me, right? But can I just pause you there? That's why I changed the word immediately. I used the wrong word, yeah. Right? I am not saying replace, so let me, those if you can afford it, you will always want to use.
Somebody who's a professional in one of those things because they've got the kind of judgment that AI does not have. But I'm talking about the person who cannot afford those people. So, what I'm saying is: yes, if I were looking and I had the money, I would hire those professionals. They should never be replaced. But what I'm saying is, if I cannot afford those people, the next best, and it's a very close best option, is to be able to use this tool available freely that can.
Can do all of those things for you. Okay, so I think that's important. I'm not saying replace, and that's why I said, oh, as soon as I said the word, I said, no, no, that's not at all what I meant. But for the person who's sitting there and they cannot, who's you know, the person who's been unemployed for five years is not going to be able to afford a career coach, a professional CV writer, a business consultant, a tutor in helping me understand how to approach business properly and an interview coach. They're not going to afford any of those things. But AI can become those things for you for yourself.
