Writer describes being replaced by AI in pointed essay

Stephanie Uchino-Beach has written a piece for the Oakland Review of Books about how artificial intelligence replaced her in her work. She argues that praise for AI's features misses the more basic point that the technology cannot do the core job it is displacing people from, likening it to admiring a car's bluetooth audio while the driver cannot even adjust the seat. The essay is drawing attention as debate over AI-driven job losses continues.
Why now: Ongoing public anxiety about AI replacing human workers, especially writers and creative professionals.
