But this didn't.
What happened is unexpected. And we've been told to expect that.
I understand that that's very broad, but the older people teaching me had a sense of how fast technology was accelerating. They didn't have a tv back in the day. They knew that work would change fast and the demands of work would change fast.

What are humans better at than what AI isn't? So far, I've noticed it's being connected to other humans. So I'm currently at a job that pivots more towards that. I'm a data analyst + softwar engineer hybrid at the moment.
