They need to tone down the "GPT" "persona" marketing if they don't want a backlash. It's one thing releasing AI and saying "do what you want with it" but it's another to actively list and illustrate the people it can replace.
Those personas aren't listing jobs, they're listing tasks. If your job is just a task then it's going to be replaced by something anyway even if OpenAI specifically forbids their model from ever doing it.
That said, we should have comprehensive retraining and guaranteed jobs programs, or a UBI. Either would ameliorate the stress on the employment market. When people require their current job to provide them and their family with food, shelter, water, and medical care and someone takes that away, they are going to react regardless of how inevitable it was, and they're right to do so, because people have a right to self-defence.
