Yes? AI is a lot of things, and most have well-defined accuracy metrics that regularly exceed human performance. You're likely already experiencing it as a mundane tool you don't really think about.

If you're referring specifically to generative AI, that's still premature, but as I pointed out, the interactive chat form most people worry about is 18 months old and making shocking levels of performance gains. That's not the perpetual "10 years away" it's been for the last 50 years, that's something that's actually happening in the near term. Jobs are already being lost.

People are scared about AI taking over because they recognize it (rightfully) as a threat. That's not because they're worthless. If that were the case you'd have nothing to fear.
