Honestly I saw Microsoft Researcher and Analyst demos on Satya Nadellas LinkedIn posts, and I don’t think ppl understand how far we are today.

Let me put it into perspective. We are at the point where we no longer need Investment Bankers or Data Analysts. MS Researcher can do deep financial research and give high quality banking/markets/M&A research reports in less than a minute that might take an analyst 1-2 hours. MS Analyst can take large, complex excel spreadsheets with uncleaned data, process it, and give you data visualizations for you to easily learn and understand the data which replaces the work of data engineers/analysts who might use Python to do the same.

It has really felt that the past 3 months or 2025 thus far has been a real acceleration in all SOTA AI models from all the labs (xAI, OpenAI, Microsoft, Anthropic) and not just the US ones but the Chinese ones also (DeepSeek, Alibaba, ManusAI) as we shift towards more autonomous and capable Agents. The quality I feel when I converse with an agent through text or through audio is orders of magnitude better now than last year.

At the same time humanoid robotics (FigureAI, Etc) is accelerating and quantum (Dwave, etc) are cooking 🍳 and slowly but surely moving to real world and commercial applications.

If data engineers, data analysts, financial analysts and investment bankers are already high risk for becoming redundant, then what about most other white collar jobs in govt /private sector?

It’s not just that the writing is on the wall, it’s that the prophecy is becoming reality in real time as I type these words.
