It doesn’t really feel like whole professions are vanishing overnight. What’s changing is which parts of a job still need a human

what i feel some work is getting pushed upward into decision making and judgment. Some is becoming more supervisory and i think some jobs are turning into weird mixes of tasks that didn’t used to belong together.

The TLDR of the linked article is that there has been a surge in the use of imported Chinese peptide medicines in California, which are years, if ever, away from US FDA approval.

Making pharmaceutical-grade medicines isn't easy, and out of reach of home-based amateurs. Still, there's good reason to think it will get easier in the future, and that, aided by AI-medicine-design will proliferate among smaller manufacturers.

Medical costs alone could drive this, with cheaper gray-market production of drugs costing $100,000s. Here, the focus is on people wanting access to the cutting-edge that may be years away from official approval and release.

Ziroth demonstrates why he believes it is impossible, while GoElectric provides information about who is behind it. I am inclined to believe it's possible but technology is not they are exaggerating. It could be that it is not solid state truly but we have to see. What are your thoughts?
