The main worry was never about it "replacing a worker". It's about one worker + GPT replacing two or three, because of the increased productivity gains you mentioned.

I've seen it happening in some fields already. First with translation, now with copywriting and GPT-4. Hiring was frozen for those areas for a while in some companies I'm familiar with.

Also administrative assistants and secretarial support. 30 years ago maybe 1/2 of the white collar workforce and now maybe 5% or less?

Not AI - but IT.
