Futurology

Compartmentalising sensitive data isn't too hard with AI. LLMs don't have a memory of their own once out of training, remember. It's just a matter of setting it up the right way.

The issue with checkouts has been theft, since they basically just trust the user to charge themselves right now. Amazon's Just Walk Out is the technology to watch for that kind of checkout, and for anything where shoppers don't collect items themselves LLMs can do a decent job without finetuning.

It's not going to replace every job, not with current capabilities anyway, but enough to drive a big economic shift? Yeah, I do agree with the IMF on that.
