The only way to win is to already have enough money that you don't need a job.

Or get a physical job AI can't do. But all of those are commodities and pay shit wages.

In my situation the next best alternative is to end it all. I wont go back to wage slavery fuck ass companies not respecting me nor my time.

You can make other drastic decisions first if things seem that bad. Upend your life, move to a really cheap part of your country, change to a purely physical labor job or a self run business or something. All of those are less permanent and have a better chance of working out?

All of this involves an amount of effort im not willing to go through every few months due to corporations letting people go left and right. Once you land a job and manage to save up a little all of it will go down the drain for your next move and the cycle repeats. All that while tech bros promise AI utopia

find a non tech job is what I mean. work for a small town Library or the govt or something more stable, get out of ai impacted fields as much as you can. maybe risky but less risky than giving up?

Meh I dont want to go for a low salary job again, feels like my time isn't worth anything. Especially not after having collected some job experience and learning 2 completely different jobs which are both becoming more and more useless. I am tired.

Not if the AI doom prophecies are true

AI is a glorified search engine, it can’t tell what solutions an org actually needs or how to plan & execute them safely.

Yes, the problem is that many corporate resources cannot differentiate their roles from that of a glorified search engine. In fact, some experts on the human mind cannot effectively differentiate the human experience from that of a glorified search engine.

That’s just a matter of context management right?
