The impact of AI on jobs

It doesn’t mean higher education is obsolete. It just means one should have a practical focus to their chosen course of study.

What Mik said. Luke picked anesthesia because there’s still going to need to be a hands on element to it, even if it’s just monitoring the tech, and being the human comgorting figure for the patient..:

Learn to code using AI...

The people giving out this kind advice always seem to assume that everybody can do this stuff, as well as having the technology access and motivation.
I was only joking

I think pretty much any reasonably intelligent person can.

Tyler Cowen was on Odd Lots today. He’s unconcerned about overall employment with AI, thinks it’ll be like other technology revolutions where some jobs are destroyed by more are created.
He does think there are winners and losers. Super rich and poor will be fine. Upper upper middle class (his words) like lawyers and consultants will lose.

The super rich are always going to be fine unless we get into some kind of Robespierre scenario.

Also I think I can flag today, Nov 20, as the day where I might be late to the party, but am implementing AI in my workflow. I have Gemini 3 up on my screen and have been using it today. For example, I had an excel file with a list of people and a very random list of certifications for each person, some including the date, some including an abbreviation, etc.... I asked it to give me a clean standardized list of certifications and then map it to each person. So a few minutes later, I have a clean list of certifications (using official industry names) associated with each person. Incredible.

"Write me an amusing post that I could share on "The New Coffee Room" website":
Post:
You know you’ve reached peak coffee dependency when your morning routine looks like this:Step 1: Wake up.
Step 2: Question all life choices.
Step 3: Whisper to the coffee machine like it’s your therapist: >“You’re the only one who understands me.”
Step 4: Drink coffee. Suddenly, spreadsheets look like art and meetings sound like TED Talks.I’m starting to think my coffee mug deserves an employee badge at this point. Anyone else feel like their caffeine intake should count as a skill on LinkedIn?
Oh, my sides.
I could also post it as a meme, but I'm not going to as the hilarity that would ensue could be dangerous for some of our more sensitive membership on a Friday.
