Industry closures and downsizing thread.

[Steelmaker]

Someone claiming to be an insider is saying the people who were recently laid off who were part of Sony's Visual Arts team was a direct result of A.I. taking those jobs. I'm afraid that unless governments step in with regulations restricting the use of A.I., we are going to be seeing more and more of this happening, not just in game development but in a LOT of industries. Hell, I worry about it in my own line of work. Basically if you are part of any kind of office "laptop" industry, involving data entry, accounting, reporting and analysis work, etc. You might want to start looking at alternative careers. Because in, I would say 3-5 years time, A.I. is going to be doing all of those jobs!
