It's clear many many of you don't understand what AI will accomplish.
Doesn't matter. It's coming anyways.
Uh, I think its you that doesn't understand, the big picture. You a looking at only a sliver of whats coming. AI is not some savior. It will have a huge productive and technical impact that totally disrupts our currently unstable economic and cultural makeup, in a very short time frame. This all adds up to tremendous instability
The timing of this is awful.

Ha a jab from the mindless "ALL change is good" crowd.
You edited it but I'll comment anyways. Yes I'm using AI in my job, yes I've managed to replace several staff over the past year while increasing work output. And yes, like I already said I have about a kindergartens level skill set and knowledge about this stuff when compared to those on the cutting edge.
But I'm start enough to know this is coming, It's not gonna stop and those that don't adapt to it for work are gonna get left in the ditch. Like the buggy whip lobby.
So instead of going all chicken little I'm reading, learning, and educating myself on this as much as possible.
If you're class of 85 and retired congrats. But those of us that aren't retired yet need to adapt or risk becoming irrelevant in the future work space.
Good post and well reasoned. except for the bolded part of line 3. I have educated myself and I have a long IT background, and I understand economics, and history. Timing is everything for many things. In this case the timing for this is terrible. And I know this doesn't make you wrong given where you are in life.
You make a great point in paragraph 4 of your post discussing adapting and risk. I get it from your perspective as your post makes sense. BUT from my perspective, I just became a grand dad as my aggie daughter just had her first kid. I want that kid to have a future. AI introduces great risk for many and great opportunities for a few. It will accelerate the on going wealth transfer. I question whether that's in her best interest and future.
Your kid and grandkids are going to have a future.
Your life experiences may have less impact than you envisioned base on the speed of things changing.
The wealth of knowledge and assets may also quickly change in value and use as the game theory shifts dramatically in the coming years.
You can:
1. Do nothing
2. Whine about change and shake fists at clouds (you're not doing that but I'm stating it's an option)
3. Adapt, continue staying sharp and working your ass off until you due to put your offspring in the best position to take advantage of the best information/resources you're capable of sharing.
I think you're about to start on path 3 (if you aren't already you frigging animal.)
