But there's a bloody big difference between being an accountant and driving a van for Jeff. That's the direction AI pushes things. "Professional"-tertiary makes up a quarter of UK jobs, and they're among the highest paying. Half of these jobs could vanish into AI in a few years. I'm not sure what this does to the aspirations of the next generation, but countries rely on their income tax revenues to pay for things. Nuking revenue from your highest earning eighth (and compressing the wages of the others) seems like it might be a significant issue.
