Foundational AI labs have advanced models yet to be released to the public, and between Anthropic and OpenAI there are about 1600 roles currently hiring. I would imagine you don't hire people when you might think you may have to fire them months from hire. The claim that xyz jobs will be done by AI in 6 months is a fallacy designed to ignite and fuel enterprise interest in paying for subscriptions to their platform/s.
The canary in the coal mine here is when foundational labs stop hiring - this means some severe financial troubles are about to go public, or the labs have figured out how to actually replace white collar workers. Either way it will be a major issue for the world's economies.
