First they came for the influencers, and I did not speak out, because I'm not an influencer..
Give them some talent and they're essentially movie actors. It's just another form of entertainment and as little as I care about influencers this won't stop with them. Anyone that appears on camera is fair game to be replaced.
There are some things I won't be disappointed to see replaced by automation. Transitions are not well managed in this regard (retraining is expensive after all), but many jobs I feel should be automated because they suck. Not really sure where influencers fall on this scale... Can't imagine it's great for your mental health.
