Imagine a worker in a car factory who inspect the car's body. Pictures from all angles and AI inspection is faster, cheaper more thorough and works 24 hours a day. And that is only 1 scenario.

Im not questioning that there is value in automated dent testing, im simply questioning how this specialised and limited number of workers, can be worth trillions.

I think its interesting that this AI functionality couldnt display something that replaces millions of workers and instead presents to us, a useful tool that replaces at best a few hundred of thousand workers.

Is there a saving by automating those workers - of course.

Is that saving worth trillions ?

Big AI is worth more than all the car manuf on earth by several factors, and the only thing they have replaced is a few hundred workers.
