I've been in this industry for coming up to 20 years now, and throughout that entire time this doom and gloom talk was always present, if it's not this thing, then it's something else. But here we are 20 years later, still going. My point is, none of us know just how this is going to turn out. Admittedly, the AI threat is gloomier than anything last 20 years, but my point stands. If it's stressing you so much, then get out of the industry and do something else; I'm just going to sit here and keep at it and just see how it all turn out. CG is not my only source of income, as I imagine is the same for pretty much everyone else here ... and if it is your only source of income, then I guess you have bigger things to worry about. Worst comes to worst, CG will make me a little beer money each week.
One of my associates is a developer in the AI industry, and according to him, it's not as nice and clean as they want you to believe. AI has a lot of misses, something like a 1,000 failures for every nice image/video/whatever you see in the media. Of course it will get better over time, but just don't believe the media hype, it's propaganda.
Also, let's not forget that companies producing AI aren't do-gooders doing it for the betterment of mankind. They're profit driven, and greedy. So when AI matures enough, you bet they'll charge an arm and a leg to use it.
So I say again, none of us know how this is going to turn out. Or maybe I'm burying my head in the sand ... dunno ... I guess we'll find out in time.
