Why do I get the feeling millions of people are going to start losing their jobs over this in the next few years?

Because that's what's going to happen.

I don't think they'll be directly replaced with AI though. Instead the company they work for will go bankrupt because they can't compete with competitors who figure out how to improve productivity using AI.
