The job of a secretary does not offer nearly the same creative outlet as the job of a graphic designer or an illustrator, let alone an artist. Also a computer is a way more general purpose tool than AI generation.
The job of an illustrator is to return a finalized product, how you get there is less important, and sometimes the quality of the product, the unique style of the artist, etc. is way more important to a customer than the speed in which it is created. The work of a secretary does not have this aspect. I think the secretary analogy does not work in the same way as a woodworker analogy, a clothes maker analogy, or even a programmer analogy.
- theLiminator 3y agoLet's not pretend most white collar work is deeply creative or extremely logically rigorous. Sure the top 1-10% of the field will still be doing deeply unique work that requires a lot of human input, but there's a ton of (code|graphic|marketing|etc.)monkey work out there that is what most white collars professionals do. If you're one of these professionals, you'll most likely be forced to adapt to these new tools under the implicit understanding that those who don't will soon be far less valuable and as such get replaced by those who do (adapt).
