    Fun! I guess I'm glad my position is non-cancellable, unless the whole country ceases to exist.

      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.

          Is he leaning one way or another? If I was his age I’d lean toward something entrepreneurial. Trades maybe. Bright kid, he’ll do well but white collar is dicey.

          The changes we are seeing in our lifetime are dizzying.
