The impact of AI on jobs
-
Yeah and we're still in the infancy years of it. Admittedly I was stubborn and refused to embrace AI for a year or two, but not only have I started to integrate it into my work (mostly summarizing content, identifying the best big data queries to use) but now I have a post-it note on my desk to get into Claude. It seems it's easy to create a digital robot to perform so many tasks now. I hope to retire in 10-12 years and hope I can dodge the AI hammer until then.

We’re about to enter into a golden age of computer games. Everybody with a good idea will be able to build a game around it, no artists or programmers required. I wonder wha big game studios will bring to the table other than interference from the marketing department.

Jack Dorsey cuts 40% of workforce, explicitly due to AI replacing humans:
Stock for the company up 20% on the news.
And Grok's summary of Dorsey's letter:
We're slashing the company from 10k to under 6k people because AI plus tiny teams now let us do the same work with way fewer bodies, and the CEO would rather gut half the staff in one brutal move than bleed out slowly over years.

I honestly do feel bad for those caught graduating at the wrong time. I work in IT but pivoted a few years ago to cybersecurity and so far we are finding ways to use AI to make our job better but I’d imagine eventually we’ll be augmented (aka replaced) by agentic robots who can find/stop security threats 24/7 and don’t need sleep.

I think my son is in a really bad age group for this. He’s needing to choose a college major knowing that AI is about to change everything but only able to speculate as to how. But by the time he graduates college those changes will be in full swing.
