"Maybe not yet, but it is certainly going to happen imminently," Max from South Africa said about the risk of AI taking jobs away from Americans.

"The amount of AI that's pushing and talkbots that you can use and systems that will allow you to sidestep other individuals or systems, it's on its way," Max said.
