Artificial intelligence is increasingly touching even hands-on jobs, and a new viral video is fuelling that debate. The clip shows a salon worker cutting hair while wearing multiple cameras and audio recording devices on his head and body.
According to the post, the worker is recording his entire workflow so the footage can be used to train AI software. The setup makes him look like an astronaut, with modern equipment strapped across his body as he works.
Industrialist Harsh Goenka, who shared the video, remarked that even salon workers may face job losses due to AI in the future. The unusual recording method and the larger question it raises have helped the video spread rapidly across social media.
The incident is being discussed online as another example of how quickly AI is moving into areas once considered safe from automation. Viewers are also debating what such training data could mean for service-sector jobs.
