      Yeah, the timing sucks big time for them. I have no idea what the job market will look like when my young kids graduate in 15-20 years.

        Yeah though maybe they’ll have some insight into what the new opportunities are by then?

        Current high schoolers choose majors with advice from counselors who still think like it’s 1995 and, though they see AI coming, can’t realistically figure out what are the good career options for 2035-2070.

        Thank you for your attention to this matter.

          I remember about 15 years ago thinking "if someone really wants job security, become a linguistic expert in a lesser known language", as I knew a few places willing to pay a LOT of money for folks who specialized in certain cultures and languages... now I'm guessing that is also getting wiped clean as a career given translation models out there.
