      ChatGPT? I thought they wouldn’t do pics of public figures.

      If you don't take it, it can only good happen.

                    What do AI engineers do?
                    They train your replacement.
                    .
                    .
                    .
                    .
                    .
                    Heck, they train everyone's replacement.

                        Amazon lays off 14,000 due to AI... Target lays off 2,000 due to AI.... Chegg (obviously) lays off 45% of workforce due to AI, they were some of the first services to be easily replaced.

                            Learn robotics repair.

                            Screw that - any machine can do it. Learn robotics sabotage!

                              I am pretty confident people will adapt. New job types will be formed, etc.

                              I read somewhere that the % of people employed as blacksmiths in the late 1800's was quite high. 20 years later, the need for blacksmiths was way way down.

                              As they say, the only thing constant is change.
