I am starting to find these comparisons bothersome.

It’s not a loom, or a car, or a printing press or python vs punch cards.

It is very different, and the facility “Management” is hoping to replace, is decision-making, and not some predictable mechanical repetitive tasks.

The thing itself is more similar to an idiot savant with no memory or understanding. Getting it to do the right thing is sometimes easy, sometimes more difficult than doing it yourself, and sometimes catastrophic. Letting it on without supervision is almost guaranteed catastrophic.

“Management” trying to replace people with it is a function of perceiving people as cogs.
