  I don't see what ease of replacement has to do with Graeber's definition.

    Really? By definition, a bullshit job could be replaced by simply eliminating the job, so "replacing" it with an AI seems like an obvious fig leaf for that kind of move.

      Does the author's definition include the people replaced by tomato sorting machines, orange harvesters, solar panel washers, fish farm feeding monitors etc?

        AI is not an equivalent of that at this point.
