AI long term

As the country progresses through the AI revolution it will change most jobs, eliminate some jobs and create new jobs. One example is the radiologist. Some years ago, it was predicted that computers could read x-rays faster and more accurately than people and these jobs were considered to be in jeopardy. What happened was that as x-ray machines became more efficient, they caused more x-rays to be used which led to better diagnosis as doctors used the computer for initial interpretation which gave them more time to evaluate in more detail. The result has been an increase in health benefits and the need for more radiologist. Automation often times means more of something not less. The point being, that at this time the long-term consequences of AI, are yet to be determined.
