That's a cool dream, but my question is: is it happening?

Out of the things you listed the only ones that seem plausible are translation team and data entry team, though even there, I'd want humans to deslop the output.

I'm telling you of what I've either worked on or seen myself.

Just a couple days ago a scheduled a furnace repair through an AI receptionist on the phone.

Layoffs in tech support and customer service already happened last year.

Entry level sales jobs doing cold calling have been replaced all over the place.

You are not capable of telling the difference between human translated and AI translated communication.

I think that is it happening is an important question, but “does the consumer actually want it to happen” should be equally important. It won’t be, because the c suite will just make the decision for us all, but it ought to be.
