This time is different. If AI were to remain what it is today, the article would be correct, but AI won't. It's a fundamentally new kind of technology, unlike anything else that has ever been created by humans. It only seems like more of the same to some people because it's so very new and primitive compared to what it will be soon. This won't be humans losing their jobs, this will be humanity losing its job. There will be plenty of new industries created but they will be run by AI for AI.
With that said, it won't necessarily be bad. It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine.
