As the future becomes Agentic, and you need to pay your AI agents off credit cards + face ID stuff possibly, how will this affect us? (lemmy.world)

Wonder on what you guys think about this, if the future of work requires us to use AI/AI agents, and this is tied to a personal account (tied to our ID) how will that change work and our lives? Every tiny mistake, any curiosity, any eureka moment or inefficiency, all of those will be recorded, tied to your identity, forever and ever to the end of time. It freaks me out...

I don't know what kind of work you're in, but if you're "required" to use LLMs then your employer should be paying for it.

If you mean that "everyone will have to use LLMs to be competitive" then that is a false dichotomy.

Cost aside, what worries me is your every thought (or an approximation) will end up written down forever in some database tied to your identity. I don't mean absolutely every single human being on the planet earth will use AI to be competitive, but I do think it will be to such a high degree that it will feel like everyone is using AI to stay competitive.

I'd say, "virtually everyone". For some time I'm sure you can keep up, but over time, let's say 10 years for example, I do believe people who never use LLMs will be on a way worse competitive position than the people who use AI. Prob way earlier than 10 years tbh

So far all the people I've had to deal with using I AI keep coming to me to fix their shit because 20+ years of experience doesn't need AI to get it right. Some of them were not half bad before AI but I've watched their skills completely rott away over the last couple years.
