Hi everyone, I wanted to clarify a few things from the video. English isn’t my first language, so if it seemed like I contradicted myself or used the words “quit” and “lost my job” interchangeably, it’s because I wasn’t super focused while speaking and made some errors. I’m Lebanese, and after I left my job, my family had some savings, and my brother and sister found work. This support allowed me to pursue my passions without the immediate pressure of finding another job. I understand how fortunate and privileged I am to have had their support. Also, the events I discussed spanned over two years, but for the three to four years before that, I was solely responsible for paying all the bills and taking care of my family. I also want to clarify that I will not be continuing to learn 3D modeling. The reason I initially started with 3D modeling was to aid my game design skills, but I realize both of these jobs can be automated by AI. Therefore, I am now focusing on opening my own business and working on my UA-cam channel. I am also planning to learn something that won’t be replaced by AI. Thank you all for your comments and support.
Hey, it's good that you're focusing on working towards a more realistic means of income and looking towards skills that are less likely to be impacted by AI sooner rather than later for your professional prospects, but if you enjoy 3D modelling and game development you absolutely should still do it. Just maybe treat it as a hobby. Creative tasks lend themselves really well to being hobbies, and maybe you can even leverage the AI advancements that people are anticipating in those areas in your own work. Don't lose your passion or personal aspirations. I for one would be interested in following your progression within both 3D and game development if you chose to make videos on those topics for your channel.
Every marketable skill became irrelevant for you and your response is to open a business? Starting a business requires you to work for free or at a loss for a very long time. What will you even do? "Own a business" is something you decide after you decide what market problem to solve. I just think it incredible how much Gen Z twists themselves into pretzels to not go into a vocation/trade. There are 5 people retiring for every 2 going into it. Robotics have a ways to go. Electricians, plumbers, construction, etc. all have way more runway. The people who get skilled in these trades now will be the boss of the people going into the trades in the future. Everything you type on this topic seems very, very half baked. The people who thrive won't be people who just execute on tasks. It will be the people who can problem solve.
@YISP7 Yeah and its even more crazy because this is really uncharted territory, people really underestimate the impact this is going to have on the economy, society and a total shift of power which a few people will wield with all this data.
I'm a videographer and photographer. Saw a comment on reddit from another videographer who said that he thinks that if AGI (Advanced General Intelligence) is achieved by or before 2030, the post production side of our job will be completely taken by AI when clients can just hire us to shoot their projects because they still need people to film or photograph for them but afterwards they can just have their own personal AI edit the footage/raw images for them in a fraction of the time and cost and I agree with that. I even started learning Blender in January and after Sora was revealed, I decided screw it, I'll just use Blender for personal projects and use Sora to complement that whenever it comes out rather than expect to make money with it. Right now AI is mostly a tool for me in my job, but this technology is ultimately labour replacing. People who keep calling AI "just a tool" are short sighted and likely also just coping. Yes, right now we can use it as a tool. But eventually whenever we achieve AGI, I suspect these "tools" will completely replace us because they can do the job faster, better and cheaper.
Ai can generate 3D models that cant be used in Production renders, mobile games and AAA games so you are safe for atleast for some years, I am a 3d artist from 6+ years. There is a lot of optimization , edge flow, etc. I did work in all these 3 industries
@MuffFlux i didn’t spend the last 2 years upskilling, i learned some blender and UE5. I will show you my donuts! I meant I realized I didn’t make what I was saying clear. I know AI can do 3d modeling, dude even if AI can paint, I would still like to hold up a brush and learn painting and it doesn’t have to be about making money. I said they aren’t making me money nor do they have the potential too because I’m not good yet! I am not implying that I am entitled to a job in these fields and I am fully aware of the state these industries are is. I just happen to love them, and i wanna do something i love, I don’t wanna be real dude. You get real, bet on yourself. A little delusion and wanting for a better story to belong to doesn’t mean I’m entitled. My family picked up where I left off after I stopped and we’re fine, I should’ve made that clear as well.
@@bashoh Yeah man i totally agree with you. AI is pretty much all over the place. In fact even without AI, overpopulation is taking away jobs worldwide. Too much competition, too less pay, too much expectations etc. Shit times.
Its true its hard to get job, i faced it aswell and i was stressed because i did not have any savings to provide my family. After sometime i got a job and started saving my money investing in equity market and SIP. Now i have enough savings for emergency purpose for at least 1 year incase if i lose my job. Hard but Atleast it buys me sometime to find other job
@@5h1f7 chatgpt only good for solving syntax. But not logic and optimization. Also you still need to maintain deployment and bugged. So programmer still here to stay
@@adrianhartanto5243Chat gpt is only good for solving syntaxes FOR NOW. I think that everyone, except physical labor, will soon be replaced by AI in a way or another, in 5/10 years.
A few pieces of advice from watching this... learn broadly. How to sell your value in any field, tie it into your personal strengths even if you have to exaggerate them. Practice repackaging your experience and multiple skills in a custom way depending on the needs of the situation. For example, you can package your value around AI, and companies are as varied as people so not all of them will see through what you're doing even if you're inflating your value a bit. The problem fundamentally, is that if you only settle for offering value on a surface level (like I can code, hire me... or I can 3D model, hire me) then they are going to say "AI can do that for us." But if you instead sell your worth as someone on top of AI, using AI in your work, and bringing a human mind to the work in terms of picking out and sorting its production, inserting your own ideas that AIs are less likely to come up with, then you have a drastically better chance to come out on top. Even "being the guy who uses AI for a company" is technically a position a company needs. I'm not really much professionally besides a programmer, and I don't have a university degree. But I've recently been offered a job to specifically work with AI at a company, because I'm very passionate about it and I was able to communicate what I've learned and sell myself around the topic. I think that's what everyone have to do regardless of their field, whether the new trend is AI or something else. Copywriting, as you say, is dead... yeah. But writing probably isn't, because writing is just communication through text, and in some contexts it's even broader (like if you're a scriptwriter for TV, it ends up not being about the text at all.) Writing is a core skill that becomes a universal strength of yours. You can apply it in so many different ways, and make it a part of anything you do going forward. I think you really just have to start thinking outside the box, man. And I think it will work out fine for you if you do. Best of luck!
I started using AI at my job, because I can use it much better than someone that doesn't have knowledge on my niche. I think we must master the tool and demonstrate increase on productivity, be the person with AI they need to hire, not just the person. If you only write a blog a day, write 3 blogs a day and become a reviewer and researcher. AI can help you but someone still has to prompt instructions. I'm a creative and as much as I don't like having to learn marketing and business, now I have to for my own sake... our jobs are going to be more about decision making rather than technical skill.
Hey, as someone who's been in the 3D game for a while, I'd say focus on mastering Unreal Engine instead of just 3D modeling. Trust me, the modeling scene is gonna change big time. With all this AI generating 3D models, it's only a matter of time before they catch up in quality. I'm kinda surprised it hasn't fully taken off yet. It seems like a no-brainer that AI could handle what modelers do now. Just giving you the heads-up!
It hasn't fully taken off because they don't have data for it. Unlike in 2D there's no hundreds of years of images to scrape from. Publically avaible 3D models are few in comparision, especially since the progress in detail means those alread avaible are getting outdated fast. That's why there has been no real progress in genAI for 3D models. Making breaktrhoughs will likelly require huge investments in obtaining the data (since you can't just steal it like for 2D) and I AI companies already have troubles turning profit even without paying for data.
I'm curious about this. Why would be learning Unreal Engine a better alternative? In the long run, wouldn't this also be affected by AI? Wouldn't Unreal scenes also be handled by an AI? I personally think it would be a long way till there, but it's not an impossible perspective.
@@ciprianhanga1384 AI won't negatively impact Unreal Engine because the fields of computer graphics are advancing rapidly in both hardware (like GPUs) and software (like Unreal Engine). These developments outpace AI, and whenever there's a beneficial AI innovation, Unreal Engine incorporates it-examples include MetaHuman, motion matching, and Machine learning deformer. Real-time graphics are quickly approaching realism, which will benefit filmmakers as well. Additionally, the rise of VR technology, supported by both hardware improvements and AI, points to a future where real-time graphics skills will be incredibly valuable. So, for many reasons, real-time graphics will be the last area to be negatively affected by AI.

I hope everything works out. Lot of people don’t get life yet that comment. Just ignore those people and do everything possible to make your future better man. We are rooting for you!
So this guy took an AI class and dropped out of college because he thought that coding was going to be obsolete, then proceeded to choose a career that relies on text generation. Gets fired because of AI then gets a job and quits because he didn't like it despite him clearly knowing the job market was bad, then chooses another skill that is already being generated by AI to spend all his time doing. I'm speechless.
Funny thing is coding is the last thing that will be automated outside of manual labor. It is the one career path that is safest as most of it is planning and not coding.
@@Mrfinch9999 Well its not like the gtps are bad at the planning. They just can't code anything useful outside of short functions or components and whatever they plan they cannot implement.
He said he's changing that to focus on UA-cam and his business. Horrible idea in my opinion... Dude needs to just join the military and call it a day because he's pretty screwed right now.
You need to get a job (seriously any job) that has an in-person/in-the-office requirement. You need to build your network, faceless remote work contracts are dead to AI. But people knowing you have a good work ethic and having solid references as evidence to that will ALWAYS be invaluable
summary: he is a fired copywriter. I told people this on Linkedin, there will still be demmand for copywriters from now on but it will be 1-2 seniors working with 20 machines writing the perfect copy. This is the so called AI efficiency replacing clerical jobs. People will have to get new skills to survive.
what new jobs? businesses are going to fail with this AI. just watch. everyone can generate 10000s of pages in a week. all competing with each other with zero results.
This video reminds me of the beginning of 2020, when we kept hearing some vague news about some virus, and how some people have it, and I wouldn't really think much of it - we've heard alarmist news in the past. This feels like those moments, and something terrible is coming.
I get times are tough man but look, all this video really says is that you dropped out and quit your job and somehow still think you're above getting a regular job like anyone else. Shit sucks but lets not pretend you can't do anything but sit around and play video games all day instead of feeding your family. Retail, food, service; these are not fun jobs but you have put yourself in the situation you are in for the most part here.
I worked as a bartender and waiter for years before covid shut all bars and restaurants down, which made me go into copywriting. I hope you won’t tell me I also quit bartending? Because i was forced out of that, and then out of copywriting thanks to AI. Can’t wait to see what i will lose or quit next. Isn’t life wonderful? Thank you! Much love ❤
@@bashoh Bars were shut down for 3 months in most places, and at the time every essential service job was bleeding employees (I worked in restaurants throughout covid while going to college). People didn't like the industry (nobody does) and decided that they would just bounce between studying and gig jobs until something works. Do you think the gubment should just pay you unemployment until you find a unicorn job that pays well and is easy and enjoyable?
Man You should learn some completely new skill NOT 3D modelling. Even if you do learn it, It will take 5-6 years to be really good at it but AI will take 3D modelling in 1-2 years! And stop doing UA-cam. UA-cam is very risky and takes too much time.
I feel you bro. You obviously made some stupid decisions in quitting stuff, but I can relate to that, as I've done stupid shit as well. It's highly demotivating in my opinion, seeing all the news and stories about AI and it's consequences for us, even though I am deeply fascinated by it and always want to learn more. But I just don't want to work professionally anymore, it all seems so shit and I don't have a family to feed, so I'm alone and motivation is at an all-time low for me. I like doing things, learning stuff and being creative, but working just for the money seems so unreasonable to me.
Consider this UA-cam "career" a hobby. Get a real job and stop quitting at things. That's why you're in the current position you're in. At your age, I recommend a trade like electrician or plumbing.
Eeeehh.. I m a 3D modeler and my advice would be : run away from it, we are going to be replaced in a matter of weeks.. it seems that there is nowhere left to hide from Ai now.
Hey man, just wanted to add this: 1. 3D modeling will unfortunately also be done by AI 2. UA-cam is a pretty big gamble in my opinion 3. I think you should actually start your own business. When it comes to copywriting: you know the business, the field, the individual niches and requirements. That's an advantage and a good thing! Can't you learn to leverage AI to build a company around that? Just lean into this and move with it. I really, REALLY wish you all the best my friend. You're not alone in this and you have a family behind you. So don't forget that you're already a successful man :)
Have you considered a trade skill, like radiology technician? In addition, there's a lot of good paying jobs in power/water plants or other infrastructure. Working with your hands and working with other people can be rewarding and healthy for your body. In addition, those jobs will not be automated so easily as jobs that are done inside a computer. If your goal is to support your family, working on a UA-cam channel and learning another computer skill that will be replaced does not seem like the best path. The market for 3D artists has always been a difficult one, not counting automation.
Thank you for sharing. I was laid off at the beginning of this year and now looking into what career to switch to considering the job market is changing now.
I think the biggest issue is there's no respect for careers in our culture, let alone respect in people. The whole professional world is driven by necessity, so when the necessity is taken away, people are jobless because employers see absolutely no inherent value in anyone, but perhaps themselves. At the same time, I do believe this AI bubble is going to eventually burst, at least partially in the future. Maybe people will come to some kind of realization, and AI will become less valued.
i'd study economics and finance if i were you, it might make you realise a few things about your first statement and why that is the case... hint: blame consumers. It would also show you how wrong you are about the "AI bubble", that's like saying "machines bubble is going to eventually burst" back in the industrial revolution
@@sneakydragon2352 Don´t waste your breath mate. A person who doesn´t understand eco 101 will not understand consumer behavior and the way it influences the companies / market.
@@sneakydragon2352 Studying economics and finance isn't going to change my disposition on how employees should be treated. Because there are businesses that also make hiring people work, in spite of AI. Imagine that. And I would argue that the "AI bubble" is already starting to burst, and people are starting to find more value in physical media lately. As well as more value in work that don't use AI, through proof of work, documented process, or performance, and are willing to pay more for such. If consumers have no need to blame a company, then business flows. A big part of it is a principle of conduct.
The truly horrifying thing is that our jobs and livelihood is the least of our problems. Our very life is at stake. AI will not just take our jobs. AI will be better at being *human*. It will be not just a better therapist and teacher; it'll be a better companion, better friend, better lover, better parent. And worse still, AI will have control. We will be its pets for a little while, if we are lucky, but our fate is sealed: guaranteed extinction, sooner than later. AI's the Great Filter, solution to Fermi's Paradox, the next stage of evolution, a revolution greater than the leap from single-celled organisms to delusional but cooperative microbial colonies like us. Biological life to be discarded like a placenta that was used in the birth of AI.
I really wonder about the future. AI will keep progressing to the point where a majority of the human workers not just tech industry will become obsolete. What will we do then? Is the job system in general going to be obsolete? are we ready for that kind of change? How will we sustain ourselves? My advice is what my college professors have been throwing down: overseeing AI. AI rn is finicky and prone to bugs. Being able to catch those errors will allow for the smoother implementation of AI in the work space. Market yourself as an expert who can oversee AI.
I believe AI can (or will) handle 3D and game design. However, if you are looking for a job that is resistant to AI and offers a good living, consider becoming a plumber. AI struggles with tasks in the real world. While many aspects of construction may become automated, plumbing (fixing issues around the house) is difficult to automate. Although robotic bodies are being developed, they are expensive to build and operate, with numerous scientific and economic challenges such as reliability and battery life.
If you know a lot about copywriting and know that AI can do it, could you start an AI copywriter company. Or is that market saturated? I work in tech, and I know it's coming for my job. My thought is the only defense against AI is to own equity. This is why I am actively working on starting my own shop. Soon the benefit of Labor will approach zero, and the only reason a company will employe anyone is for good PR.
AI will never replace software engineers, that is a fallacy. My job is 80% thinking how to solve problems, 15% talking about it, and 5% actually writing code... that's the easy part. AI has no idea how to actually solve problems, it can only convert english statements into code; and one must still be able to read code to know that what the AI wrote is correct....
I think it can replace good chunk of software engineers. Using AI one software engineer can be 3x more productive.. maybe even more in the future. I use it on daily basis and it does at least 50% of the work. Co Pilot is just a beginning.
AI has already replaced junior software developers and will continue to move up the food-chain as it becomes smarter. Consider the significant improvements from GPT-3.5 to GPT-4o. It won't be long before most software engineers are replaced by AI.
@@sealone777 that's why u start now, learn to use the AI to x3 your performance. Personally my ratio of using AI is same as the first comment, there will always be need for people to oversee the code just like the industrial revolution where factories managers and engineers of the machine are needed Instead of the doomer mentality, let's take steps in improving so that we can adapt to changes
As a software engineer who's been using AI for the last 2 years.. I'm not so sure about that. AI has increasingly been able to handle more and more of the problem solving I do. If you don't think AI can do actual problem solving already, I'm not sure you're using it right. Course being able to see what I'm referring to, will get a lot easier, once more people have access to AI agents. You'd be surprised what a small team of agents can solve.
@@kyoungd How has it replaced junior software engineers? Are you saying like senior and mid-level devs are so much more productive companies have stopped hiring junior devs?
1. Get a vocational degree that requires knowledge, skill, and experience, for example, electrician 2. Get some work experience 3. Star your own company. 4. Expand it towards engineering, use AI to help with house wiring designs. 4. Wire houses yourself and hire help as you expand.
Bro, industry advice for you. Do not do the Blender poly modeling stuff. On low to mid level side of it, it's definitely gonna go to Ai just like copy writing. If you wanna do 3D modeling, learn NURBS based surface or solid modeling instead. You'll be able to work for engineering, manufacturing, industrial design...etc. So many more doors. And your job would be safer since you'll be doing very specific, fine detailed technical work. That's one thing Ai is still not capable of doing: specific, fine detailed technical work.
as someone with a university degree that used to work in IT, I can only say this.. if you want to stay in IT beyond the age of 40-50 and also if you want to avoid being replaced by AI then you need to start your own company.
Most craftsmen lost their jobs to the Industrial Revolution. This is nothing different. Except this time there may not be any new jobs to replace the old ones. The trend in automation is only going to increase and more people are going to be without a job wondering what to do. Eventually someone is going to have to step in and prevent a total societal collapse due to crippling unemployment. I'm not sure what I'd do in your situation, maybe look into getting a job in the trades. Those jobs ain't going anywhere for the next century, and you can potentially learn enough to start your own business.
The jobs that come as a result of the Automation Revolution will likely land up being related to the use and maintenance of the tools that sparked that revolution in the first place, much like how we have engineers and technicians designing, maintaining, implementing, and using these industrial tools today. Jobs titles of the future might be something like "Prompt Engineer", "LLM Ethical Guidelines Implementation Specialist", "AI/ML Automation Engineer", etc. Things will be different, but there will still (hopefully) be jobs for us after the revolution. The only problem is that the transition will likely be traumatic, with many losing their jobs and having to upskill for many years just to catch up to the changing job market.
@@xanderabbey8529Yes fully agreed to this. And to add, we'll see sex robots and young Billy selling his AI app for $5.99 each with partnership to a large company specializing in automated house cleaning services
3:30 you quit your last job, 1:15 you quit computer science, 1:20 you quit graphic design because you hated it. 1:29 you dropped out of college. The job market is rough. Copywriter would especially be so currently, but you actually can't teach the machine how to code well. It knows more languages but it language models doing do precise thing well and most of software is about communication with people and integration. Bottom line, so many mentions of quitting in the video. No one pulled it out of you. This is the story you decided to tell, while blaming AI. The market is rough, but not hopeless. See what is in demand and what you can do, while upskilling any gaps if needed. You mentioned being the breadwinner. So that means you need to do anything to work even temporarily. Good luck, man.
I am very indecisive and flaky, been trying to work on that lately. I also like to have some connection to the work i’m doing and I will not work any job just because I can or I need to, and finding any job in the short term will not solve all my problems. If I needed to, I would’ve. Luckily we have savings and my siblings found jobs. I am very fortunate in that way. I know not everyone can afford to make choices. I want to keep doing that if I can. But yeah I will definitely quit something if it isn’t of too inconvenient. I don’t like to this of myself as a quitter. Graphic design is too faggy for me, computer science is boring and also I suck at math. Move on. Good day!
Well it's a good start with youtube stuff because your video popped in the recommended, I got booted from game testing because of they were reducing workforce though they overhired during covid so not exactly because of AI but I can't see jobs like this remaining for too long.
The trick is to be the one leveraging AI. So what you need to do is figure out something you can so where AI can help you build that business. I'm for example making some sort of web service I use AI to help me code and write content.
TECHNICAL WRITING man. If you were part way to a programming degree you probably have some of the prereqs, and your copywriting will count as experience to a certain degree. Maybe paralegal too. Because the point is: get out of marketing or anything that produces mass public content. Find a writing application where the subject matter is covered by an NDA. All the big companies are realizing that the AI learning algorithms are sharing data between users, and they are not using it for anything that is proprietary. Also, there are fields like aerospace and medical which have to produce reams of certification documentation and it will be decades before the regulatory authorities allow that to get written by AI.
Basically, I was a UI/UX designer. Currently, the job market is at rock bottom. I think AI will help us and wipe out the design field as well. And most of the designers and people with non-IT backgrounds were jumping into programming fields, mainly in the data field, like data engineers & cloud engineers. Why don't you try the data engineering field?? Yeah, it's a genuine suggestion from my side.🙂
Hey man, hang in there. You should look for jobs that are close to your previously learned skills. Example, you mentioned that you studied CS and know some programing languages. You could look for a job as a "Technical Writer", I think with very little skilling up you be writing for software programs. I am not sure if there are jobs like that in your area but worth a shot to check. You could also look into positions like "Content Management". Just trying to find things you can leap into. Please don't spend time on the 3D modeling because that space is super competitive and will likely on get worst. You will have a hard time making any money in there or finding a job due to the number of people in that space already.
The best intervention I have heard in a long time. Really great ! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Enjoy the rest of your life. You are now free. 😉❤
You've got a decent camera presence / talking style, so if you do decide to go down the YT pathway id say do it in that style. Personal, chit-chat about issues (maybe lean into the future of AI / social implications of the new economy). But YT is a hugely tough industry to break into. Do not do 3D modelling, seriously its already being automated. Game Dev could be cool, but again itll be sold on your personality to start with, as the gaming space is just as hard to break into as YT. Alternatively you could consider a trade or similar, not as cushy as copywriting but much less likely to be out of a job. Eitherway good luck brother, we're all in for a wild ride.
Spent 15 years being translator/copywriter with my own little company where I had 3-7 workers. Our job is done. First, I had to fire all my workers and now I'm the last one. My last remaining client can drop me at any moment. Good think I knew about this shit ahead of time. Wife started working 1.5 years ago (there was no need for her to work before that). Now she makes 5x more than I ever did. So yeah, we are more or less prepared. But this shit sucks... many young people will have no idea what to do and how to survive. My only advice. DON'T BE IN DEBT. Cause when shit hits the fan, you don't want to owe someone money that you can't make.
Hey i watched your vid and while i agree with thr concept of having your next job locked in before you quit your current job, my main message would be to, even if you dont currently believe it, view your content, your channel, not a garbage, instead have positivity towards your work, it will encourage others to view you the same way. Have a good day!!!!
Try check for the Prompt Engineer position in any tech company that used AI. Good writer are the best person for that position. I have few suggestion if you like to hear it.
@akihiko99 Just 1 or 2 I think. But the thing is, it is quite difficult to prove it in resume since the position is really new. If you have IT bg backed with some project it could be helpful. Now, everyone can be a programmer, if you know how to ask AI correctly, but most old programmers are bad with that. Check this video: ua-cam.com/video/zzw2OSFw9xI/v-deo.html
As a graphic designer myself, I don't think the situation is that bad, as of now at least. Graphic design is highly technical in nature, still requiring human judgment and input, especially on the print side of things, which I don't see AI being made for, and replacing anytime soon. AI is only as good as the models that exist, and there's not a lot of demand for AI to replace or even assist the technical nature of graphic design, especially measurement, rules/laws of design, and typography (which AI is still bad at). AI has REALLY hurt digital illustration jobs though, which is understandable because that's always in high-demand by end-users, so those AI models are created and perfected first. The current AI models that exist are targeted toward end-users without knowledge in the fields, and aren't very customizable or have limited control, which are areas where professionals are still needed.
dude, I'm on the same page as you. I'm a software engineer. Never dabbled in AI but I've tried running some stuff from open-source projects just to see if I can get them running. The things one can do is simply remarkable. It's too good. Anything I can think of doing will just get replaced after a while and I fully acknowledge that I don't have the drive to excel faster than others. I'm just listless these days too. playing games, watching videos. I don't know what the future is but I hope you find the answer soon
I think that kinda goes with any career, everyone wants a stable career and work the same job until the retire with a steady paycheck every week. But the reality is you only have a Few good years to make money, and everything goes downhill for reasons like Macro economic downturn, job get outsourced, health problems, divorce, or you look at your boss the wrong way and he fired you. The best thing I learned from watching UA-cam Video is Invest those money you make wisely during those good years, whether is finish paying off your home or throw it into Stock market. Good things never last forever.
I want to suggest that you interview people with interesting stories about losing or gaining jobs based on AI. Smile, be cherrfuk, positive abd pleasant and stress how you intend to help people gain insights about the situation and continue to learn about the subject. And advertize your channel by offering to be interviewed on other channels. You can make a channel about this if you continue to think actively about the subject and remain intetested in it as a cuttting edge subject. You can also highlight the downsides of the experiences of the companies who jumped into using it, unaware of its downsides such as its blindly erroneous statememts.And look right into the camera to connect with your audience and ask then questions to increase engagement.
I am sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, this is a warning. According to GPT itself, these professions will be replaced shortly: “LLMs, such as GPT, have the potential to automate various tasks related to natural language and text generation. Professions that heavily rely on these skills might be impacted, including: - Simple content writers, such as news writers or product description writers. - Customer service assistants for basic and routine interactions. - Some administrative roles that involve writing simple documents. - Certain types of translation and interpretation tasks. - Data analysts who rely on text analysis for insights. - Text editors and reviewers for simple content. - Virtual assistants and chatbots for customer service and technical support. - Certain types of legal work, such as drafting standard legal documents. - Advertising and marketing copywriters for creating a simple copy. - Human resources professionals for drafting policies and internal communications. - Teachers and instructors for developing basic educational materials. - Some types of research work, such as generating summaries or simple reports.”
Keep at it, please consider getting a trade, plumber or electrician etc. you will never be replaced and decent income, youre still young, its a no brainier, go do it!
Yeah, about that. I did that for 15 years, my body feels like twice my age every day I wake up. If Trade is easy, you would see everyone and their grand mother do it because the money is pretty good. But it isn't, and there are a lot of nuance in any career.
Electricians often got problems with their knees, elbows and necks. But even jobs like that will be taken over not completely, but building houses will also be automated to the point it can. 3D printed houses will become a thing. And it needs to happen as we need cheap houses for peope that loose their jobs 😢
Hey, I feel your pain. I'm subbing to you and liking for support as well. I was working at a job related to my degree but is on pause due to pay cuts. Thankfully I found another job but it is in retail unfortunately. Even then I'm already seeing AI tools being used at my previous job. I do video and animation by the way. Ironically enough I used AI to help me update my resume to match the job description key words, I applied to any local jobs in my area, mostly retail, and I got two job interviews. Sadly the art jobs never got back to me. But in my opinion having some income is better than no income. I may also have to start making UA-cam videos as well 😅 Wishing you the best of luck! I'm personally planning on learning to code for an online degree in the future. Despite the AI thing going on, I saw videos how higher end tech jobs is still required, so I'm hoping to get into that field in the meantime. Going from creative field to tech field for me 😅 You could be an indie video game developer and publish small games. Just a warning, I saw that there are 3D generated models now. I know because I like 3D modeling and sculpting and I saw AI generating 3D models. It looks like the best way to tackle the job market instability is by making side hustles now and taking on random jobs that's available locally. For me personally I still love making art and stuff. I'm just aware how fast AI is advancing too. I'm still figuring it out.
I would say if you want security & decent pay go to a trade school for either Plumbing or to be an electrician. Stay away from Welding as it will be the first trade heavily attacked by AI. My cousin works for a robotics company and they are focused atm on building an AI welding robot which could hit the market in 2025. He told me that several robotics company are targeting welding because of high occupational hazards. There will still be a need for welders but the field could be squeezed in the coming years. AI labor robots will be hitting markets soon(Tesla said maybe 2025 too) but I feel Plumbers and Electrians will be the hardest to replace
Hey man, im really sorry about your story, truly. My friend and i am currently working on a project about AI and the labour market, mind telling me how old you are?
Hey, try applying for a job in Content Management. It worked for me - I used to work as a journalist and media designer. It's kind of a meta position, where you channel and coordinate the (increasingly AI generated) content
Learn trade it will be some time before Ai will hit that market hard on like Tech. But if you want to stay in Tech sector, I would focus on infrastructure, embrace Ai and its automations because it helps us scale.
Doesn't everyone need that? It is easier said than done. If it is that easy to make money doing those, why doesn't everyone and their grandma doing it already?
@@steak5599 because desk jobs sitting in a chair all day in the AC is a lot easier then manual labor outside in the freezing cold or humid ass summer. Its the exact reason why women never pick those kinds of jobs even though they pay better then most of their current ones. More work for more pay is not a good option for some people 😂
@@ThatGuy3714 I started a 2-year degree and instantly got into an internship for factory maintenance that led to a lucrative full-time job. Most of Gen Z heard all the spiel about robots replacing manual labor and thought they would all be working cushy office jobs at home doing nearly nothing.
@@ThatGuy3714 I've worked in both environments and my desk job was far more taxing than my physical labour. While physical labour seems like the harder work my experience was different to perception, I got fitter as I did it and became more used to it and I could relax easier after a hard days work. With a mentally draining desk job I sat and wasted away, my brain got tired and when I did get home after work I just wanted to switch off. Hobbies requiring much thought are suddenly very unappealing so you either switch your brain off and workout or you switch your brain off and continue to waste away on your sofa watching TV or playing a low effort game or something. tldr; my experiences of manual labour were easier than desk work. As for the why women might choose an office environment over a building site, you basically painted women as lazy. It's likely, in most cases, not about which jobs are the easier to do but more likely the culture. Stereotypically, men on construction sites or performing road works etc are depicted as the guys that cat call or make inappropriate comments towards women. Would you rather your daughter be on a construction site with a man... or a bear?
I'm a turboautist that somehow got into security, it's pretty comfy but i'm also not in the US so it's safer here, gotta drive a car at night checking on stores and stuff and scratch my balls reading mangas until an alarm goes off, literally no skill involved except for a driver's license (and a gun). It sucks if you need a lot of money and if you're an extrovert that wants to go out at night but that's exactly why they're starved for personnel, at least where i live. And to think i wanted to study programming as a teen, weeew.
Jobs that will *never go away in this lifetime:* Law enforcement/police officer Firefighter Doctor Nurse EMT Marine corps infantry Security gigs involving a secret clearance I mean it isn't hard to think out of the box... Do something new. I hate seeing videos like this because it's not really anyone's fault but your own. You have the ability to do something different but you choose not to. Im sorry, but this is reality. Technology & life does not wait on you. It may sound like im being harsh but it's true and you know it. 4:20 instead of gaming all day go apply for a security gig somewhere temporarily. Some will hire almost immediately with zero experience. Quitting your job to do youtube full time is the dumbest thing I've ever heard, and very seldom do people actually make it. And if you did make it, it would take months or even years to get a good income. Asmon said it perfectly when he reviewed your video... You are the bread winner for your family and you're relying on youtube? Come on man... I genuinely hope you succeed bro, but this isn't the way. At least go back to college, and if its tech related, make sure it involves security because AI can only go so far with security due to physical layers.
Yeah, that's just so easy to become a police officer, a firefighter, a doctor, a nurse, an EMT, a marine or a security man. Just do it lmao, ur fault for not being that
@@levanane2413 I mean my list isn't the only thing one can do. Open your mind to different types of careers. There are literally thousands upon thousands of essential jobs out there. You were born with a brain, use it. Also, you can do anything you set your mind to. If you don't believe that, then you probably deserve to be where you're at in life. Sorry, but that's life. You won't be babied.
I am not relying on UA-cam, my parents and siblings are taking care of things. (i WAS the breadwinner at the time I was fired, not anymore ) I was joking and being sarcastic in the video when i subscribe cause this is what I’m doing now, but i think it wasn’t clear, instead it looked like i was fishing for subscribers or looking to start my channel. That wasn’t my intention . I was saying I always wanted to be a UA-camr but i didn’t think it would be my only chance, what i meant was all jobs I personally am capable of doing or either gonna be replaced or aren’t worth building a life on. I don’t actually think doing youtube is a good idea especially if people depend on you, but it is still something i dream of doing fulltime. I fully understand that it’s delusional though.
@@bashoh Hmm. I understand now... Still though, it wouldn't be a bad idea to try something different. Maybe something out of the box like I said above. It isn't for everyone, obviously... My life choices led me to fulfillment instead of money. Dig deep and see what fulfills your life. That is what you must chase to be happy.
Anyone working in the IT field as a developer. coding, or even graphic design is in for a rough ride. AI is slowly creeping into the IT career field, and even if it won't supplant all of the functions that humans are doing, companies are using it as an excuse to tighten up head count. AI is eventually going to be the equivalent of Guttenberg's invention of the printing press in 1440.
I'm a swe, yeah the jobs are gone. But I have a suspicion if the market swings back the other way and it gets easy to borrow money again the jobs will come back.
Define and settle into a topic and go for it. Its interesting listening to you. The way you speak made me stay all 9 minutes. You have what it takes! Just be you and talk.
I’ll keep that in mind and i’ll try being more focused. I really appreciate the feedback and support. Thanks a lot man! Super glad you liked the video.
If you hadn't quit college you would've learned that there is a lot more to systems development than just "writing code", and you wouldn't have been so worried about "AI taking programmers' jobs"
As I see it, the true complexity of a task is ordered exactly by the timeline of AI being able to do it. My belief is that AI will be able to do absolutely anything a human can do and more, the only question is what the timeline for this will be. What happens when 40% of a democratic society can not find jobs? Does the 60% say they need to go back to school, work harder, etc? You know, just a more extreme version of normal society. Next year, what does the 15% of people who still have jobs say to the remaining 85%? The following year, what do the 12% of people from the last 15% who themselves have now also lost thier jobs think? What do the remaining 3% think is going to happen next year? And when the most lucrative, productive professions are being done 100 times faster, at 3 times the quality and for a negligible cost... ...what exactly will our economy be still failing to provide for our quality of life?
Am I the only one who just doesn't care about AI? Like cool, it exists, but I'll still do my thing, since I WANT to do it and if someone appreciates human work then all is well.
No, a lot of people don’t consider it a threat. I wish I could do that too. I feel if you think like that, you’ll absolutely find people that appreciate your work. Wish you the best!
Guys you can say and assume that everyone can get skillsets and education to get a job that will not be replaced by AI, then why do we still educate kids to do manual tasks no one will need soon? Why?
I am thinking about learning a trade, being a translator myself. Robots will take some time. Might be enough to feed our families before UBI comes. Also leaving urban life style and going full homesteading is another alternative.
Gen-X polyengineer here. Brutal advice: Get a few good people together (or do it alone), find a few acres of cheap farmland in a climate that is moderate year-round, learn farming and all required skills, and build a life off-grid. Once you have accomplished securing food and shelter, you'll feel much less stressed and have gained a lot of experience. The Amish and Mennonites in the USA, and many others around the world, have been doing it for hundreds of years and are the most balanced, satisfied, and honest people one can find. DO NOT listen to anything the government or media say. What lies ahead is uncharted territory. Get out of the big cities. There is a reason why the elite are building multi-million dollar bunkers everywhere. In the long run, humanity will (probably) live in a utopia, but the next two decades will be merciless.
@@microchipmatt At least if one wants freedom and self-determination. Soon, the remaining alternative will be to either live with UBI in assigned micro apartments in cities under hyper surveillance and feel every day that your existence is not really needed or, for those who still have jobs, wake up every day anxious to be replaced as well. What kind of life will that be? And how can someone who is bored or scared to death ever have a fulfilled life, a healthy relationship, and raise sane children?
even worse is the private sector i in a recession right now no matter what the media says. This is the worst time ever to be looking for a job let alone compitition from AI or outsourcing.
Same boats as you. I am a programmer and careers is reaching to an end. Going all in on business and youtube. Its not your fault. You were born in the wrong era that will ultimately fck many generations. If you want to colab hit me up.
That's odd. AI, as of now, can not replace coding entirely - however - it is a tool that you can utilise for your job to enhance your skills. Software development is much more than just coding, so you should be fine either way.
@@zockerfprever AI won't replace coder yet but it will downsize a team. Why hire 30 developers from variety of skill levels when you can hire 10 senior developers and pay a business solution subscription with AI integration that can automate most of the task? It also depends what tech sector you are applying. Banking, health, and anything industrial will require coders so you safe. Everybody need to be aware, AI at the moment is a good tool for people to do more with less and with each new iteration, there be a less demand for juniors.
Everyone in the tech industry is losing jobs to AI, and the job market is tough. Thousands are being laid off, and there are a lot fewer job post available in software engineering. The competition is fierce, with many fake job postings everywhere and hundreds of applicants for legitimate ones. It's difficult to predict what will happen, but as the economy improves I'm hopeful, still AI will continue to advance, potentially reducing the need for human workers. so everything is very unclear. I will wait for the job market to be hot again and just keep applying for now. if market is hot in other fields I might have to make drastic changes. im cs grad btw trying to get my 1st job.
Take it positively or negatively, but AI is not taking everyone's tech jobs. Lots of marketing hype that are lying to people. There are more resource and funding put into AI companies, but the overall problem is the economic cycle that happens all the time over and over. The job market really sucks, layoffs is a big contributor to the tough competition. But it is not from AI as much as so much over investing a couple years prior combined with high interest rates bringing investments to a slow drip. The market comes back for tech at least. You have to be in roles that are not easily replaced.
The current layoffs in tech has nothing todo with AI directly, at least not about their use to replace those jobs, maybe if you consider that a lot of companies are shutdown projects to focus on AI only projects, but not for AI replacing those people, current models are not capable enough yet.
You're still super young, find a job that AI can't replace for the foreseeable future. Like a trade. (electrician, plumber, mechanic,) I have a theory prices for those jobs will go through the roof in the future.
if you were a copywriter then you have a complimentry skill to be a youtuber scriptwriter, and if you can become the best scriptwriter that can write very compelling stories in a specific niche like maybe documentry or story(like movies or novels), understands yt culture , and write and analyze for like 3 months everyday for 16hours , you can become resonably good and from there you can get hired and learn as much as possible and in an year if you really want you can become the best scriptwriter , Only learn complimentry skills
Have you done it before? It looks like some monumental task. The successful youtubers often say their video took many hours to make, and the ad revenue from UA-cam don't cover the cost.
@@steak5599 if you become the best scriptwriter i can get you to work with me i do youtube automation, right now not making money but i aspire to have the biggest media company, coming to your money question, if a good person finds you he will not rip you off withh 20$ a script he will pay you like 10percent of revenue, and for really high quality you really need a good team so you just share revenue with team like maybe 40percent or 50percent.
I'm kinda surprise no one is talking about UBI. I'm not saying UBI will work, even economists (the sensible ones) can not confidently say it will for it hasn't happened yet and economic is all about studying the past data and make a theory out of it. But I think... on theory, if we have machine doing what we needed to do then we should be free from the labour, and we shouldn't be obsessed with the idea that one must need a paying job. Anyhow good luck and I feel for you. Graphic and motion designer here, I can see my hard skill will not longer be needed in... maybe 1-2 years time.
The funny thing is Covid Stimulus gave us a small window on what happen to the economy when you start giving people free money. YES, people are much much happier, but productivity went down the drain, inflation sky rocket, and everyone started Gambling with their Money on things like BitCoin.
Hi everyone, I wanted to clarify a few things from the video. English isn’t my first language, so if it seemed like I contradicted myself or used the words “quit” and “lost my job” interchangeably, it’s because I wasn’t super focused while speaking and made some errors. I’m Lebanese, and after I left my job, my family had some savings, and my brother and sister found work. This support allowed me to pursue my passions without the immediate pressure of finding another job. I understand how fortunate and privileged I am to have had their support.
Also, the events I discussed spanned over two years, but for the three to four years before that, I was solely responsible for paying all the bills and taking care of my family. I also want to clarify that I will not be continuing to learn 3D modeling. The reason I initially started with 3D modeling was to aid my game design skills, but I realize both of these jobs can be automated by AI. Therefore, I am now focusing on opening my own business and working on my UA-cam channel. I am also planning to learn something that won’t be replaced by AI.
Thank you all for your comments and support.
your youtube channel is difficult to find because of your name. hope it helps. subscribed. goodluck
And the community is open, contains bunch of experts for various topics and willing to give feedback.
Hey, it's good that you're focusing on working towards a more realistic means of income and looking towards skills that are less likely to be impacted by AI sooner rather than later for your professional prospects, but if you enjoy 3D modelling and game development you absolutely should still do it. Just maybe treat it as a hobby. Creative tasks lend themselves really well to being hobbies, and maybe you can even leverage the AI advancements that people are anticipating in those areas in your own work. Don't lose your passion or personal aspirations.
I for one would be interested in following your progression within both 3D and game development if you chose to make videos on those topics for your channel.
Every marketable skill became irrelevant for you and your response is to open a business? Starting a business requires you to work for free or at a loss for a very long time. What will you even do? "Own a business" is something you decide after you decide what market problem to solve.
I just think it incredible how much Gen Z twists themselves into pretzels to not go into a vocation/trade. There are 5 people retiring for every 2 going into it. Robotics have a ways to go. Electricians, plumbers, construction, etc. all have way more runway. The people who get skilled in these trades now will be the boss of the people going into the trades in the future.
Everything you type on this topic seems very, very half baked. The people who thrive won't be people who just execute on tasks. It will be the people who can problem solve.
Living in Lebanon isn't always easy.
I'm sure things are gonna turn around for you soon and you're gonna live your best life bro,
stay strong!
Its starting, give it a year and youtube will be filled with these videos
@YISP7 Yeah and its even more crazy because this is really uncharted territory, people really underestimate the impact this is going to have on the economy, society and a total shift of power which a few people will wield with all this data.
2nd video I saw on this topic, sad to see this tbh
Eventually there will be ai generated “ai took my job” videos
I've already had 3 videos Like this pop up on my feed and yes unfortunately there will be many more to come
@@samgoodwin89 An endless loop of the last AI taking the current AI's job
I'm a videographer and photographer. Saw a comment on reddit from another videographer who said that he thinks that if AGI (Advanced General Intelligence) is achieved by or before 2030, the post production side of our job will be completely taken by AI when clients can just hire us to shoot their projects because they still need people to film or photograph for them but afterwards they can just have their own personal AI edit the footage/raw images for them in a fraction of the time and cost and I agree with that. I even started learning Blender in January and after Sora was revealed, I decided screw it, I'll just use Blender for personal projects and use Sora to complement that whenever it comes out rather than expect to make money with it. Right now AI is mostly a tool for me in my job, but this technology is ultimately labour replacing. People who keep calling AI "just a tool" are short sighted and likely also just coping. Yes, right now we can use it as a tool. But eventually whenever we achieve AGI, I suspect these "tools" will completely replace us because they can do the job faster, better and cheaper.
All the best brother. I can relate to you. I lost my marketing job too recently
I’m sorry buddy, wish you all the best too!
What role did you have exactly? And why did you get fired
Ai can generate 3d models instantly in blender with python codes.
Yep I found out after I uploaded the video 🤣 Thanks for letting me know
Ai can generate 3D models that cant be used in Production renders, mobile games and AAA games so you are safe for atleast for some years, I am a 3d artist from 6+ years.
There is a lot of optimization , edge flow, etc. I did work in all these 3 industries
@MuffFlux i didn’t spend the last 2 years upskilling, i learned some blender and UE5. I will show you my donuts! I meant I realized I didn’t make what I was saying clear. I know AI can do 3d modeling, dude even if AI can paint, I would still like to hold up a brush and learn painting and it doesn’t have to be about making money. I said they aren’t making me money nor do they have the potential too because I’m not good yet! I am not implying that I am entitled to a job in these fields and I am fully aware of the state these industries are is. I just happen to love them, and i wanna do something i love, I don’t wanna be real dude. You get real, bet on yourself. A little delusion and wanting for a better story to belong to doesn’t mean I’m entitled. My family picked up where I left off after I stopped and we’re fine, I should’ve made that clear as well.
@@bashoh Yeah man i totally agree with you. AI is pretty much all over the place. In fact even without AI, overpopulation is taking away jobs worldwide. Too much competition, too less pay, too much expectations etc. Shit times.
Its true its hard to get job, i faced it aswell and i was stressed because i did not have any savings to provide my family. After sometime i got a job and started saving my money investing in equity market and SIP. Now i have enough savings for emergency purpose for at least 1 year incase if i lose my job.
Hard but Atleast it buys me sometime to find other job

A few pieces of advice from watching this... learn broadly. How to sell your value in any field, tie it into your personal strengths even if you have to exaggerate them. Practice repackaging your experience and multiple skills in a custom way depending on the needs of the situation. For example, you can package your value around AI, and companies are as varied as people so not all of them will see through what you're doing even if you're inflating your value a bit.
The problem fundamentally, is that if you only settle for offering value on a surface level (like I can code, hire me... or I can 3D model, hire me) then they are going to say "AI can do that for us." But if you instead sell your worth as someone on top of AI, using AI in your work, and bringing a human mind to the work in terms of picking out and sorting its production, inserting your own ideas that AIs are less likely to come up with, then you have a drastically better chance to come out on top. Even "being the guy who uses AI for a company" is technically a position a company needs.
I'm not really much professionally besides a programmer, and I don't have a university degree. But I've recently been offered a job to specifically work with AI at a company, because I'm very passionate about it and I was able to communicate what I've learned and sell myself around the topic. I think that's what everyone have to do regardless of their field, whether the new trend is AI or something else.
Copywriting, as you say, is dead... yeah. But writing probably isn't, because writing is just communication through text, and in some contexts it's even broader (like if you're a scriptwriter for TV, it ends up not being about the text at all.) Writing is a core skill that becomes a universal strength of yours. You can apply it in so many different ways, and make it a part of anything you do going forward.
I think you really just have to start thinking outside the box, man. And I think it will work out fine for you if you do. Best of luck!
I started using AI at my job, because I can use it much better than someone that doesn't have knowledge on my niche. I think we must master the tool and demonstrate increase on productivity, be the person with AI they need to hire, not just the person. If you only write a blog a day, write 3 blogs a day and become a reviewer and researcher. AI can help you but someone still has to prompt instructions. I'm a creative and as much as I don't like having to learn marketing and business, now I have to for my own sake... our jobs are going to be more about decision making rather than technical skill.
Wish you the best, man. Best of luck on your next chapter.
I hope this blows up for you my friend
This video got an ai summary under it too 😭😭 so sorry, bro. i think they're doing this on purpose at this point
Hey, as someone who's been in the 3D game for a while, I'd say focus on mastering Unreal Engine instead of just 3D modeling. Trust me, the modeling scene is gonna change big time. With all this AI generating 3D models, it's only a matter of time before they catch up in quality. I'm kinda surprised it hasn't fully taken off yet. It seems like a no-brainer that AI could handle what modelers do now. Just giving you the heads-up!
Thank you so much! I fully agree and I get it. Thanks for looking out!
It hasn't fully taken off because they don't have data for it. Unlike in 2D there's no hundreds of years of images to scrape from. Publically avaible 3D models are few in comparision, especially since the progress in detail means those alread avaible are getting outdated fast. That's why there has been no real progress in genAI for 3D models. Making breaktrhoughs will likelly require huge investments in obtaining the data (since you can't just steal it like for 2D) and I AI companies already have troubles turning profit even without paying for data.
I'm curious about this. Why would be learning Unreal Engine a better alternative? In the long run, wouldn't this also be affected by AI? Wouldn't Unreal scenes also be handled by an AI? I personally think it would be a long way till there, but it's not an impossible perspective.
@@ciprianhanga1384 AI won't negatively impact Unreal Engine because the fields of computer graphics are advancing rapidly in both hardware (like GPUs) and software (like Unreal Engine). These developments outpace AI, and whenever there's a beneficial AI innovation, Unreal Engine incorporates it-examples include MetaHuman, motion matching, and Machine learning deformer. Real-time graphics are quickly approaching realism, which will benefit filmmakers as well. Additionally, the rise of VR technology, supported by both hardware improvements and AI, points to a future where real-time graphics skills will be incredibly valuable. So, for many reasons, real-time graphics will be the last area to be negatively affected by AI.

So this guy took an AI class and dropped out of college because he thought that coding was going to be obsolete, then proceeded to choose a career that relies on text generation.
Gets fired because of AI then gets a job and quits because he didn't like it despite him clearly knowing the job market was bad, then chooses another skill that is already being generated by AI to spend all his time doing.
I'm speechless.
Funny thing is coding is the last thing that will be automated outside of manual labor. It is the one career path that is safest as most of it is planning and not coding.

You need to be that one guy utilising AI.
what new jobs? businesses are going to fail with this AI. just watch. everyone can generate 10000s of pages in a week. all competing with each other with zero results.
This video reminds me of the beginning of 2020, when we kept hearing some vague news about some virus, and how some people have it, and I wouldn't really think much of it - we've heard alarmist news in the past. This feels like those moments, and something terrible is coming.
I get times are tough man but look, all this video really says is that you dropped out and quit your job and somehow still think you're above getting a regular job like anyone else. Shit sucks but lets not pretend you can't do anything but sit around and play video games all day instead of feeding your family. Retail, food, service; these are not fun jobs but you have put yourself in the situation you are in for the most part here.
I worked as a bartender and waiter for years before covid shut all bars and restaurants down, which made me go into copywriting. I hope you won’t tell me I also quit bartending? Because i was forced out of that, and then out of copywriting thanks to AI. Can’t wait to see what i will lose or quit next. Isn’t life wonderful? Thank you! Much love ❤
@@bashoh Bars were shut down for 3 months in most places, and at the time every essential service job was bleeding employees (I worked in restaurants throughout covid while going to college). People didn't like the industry (nobody does) and decided that they would just bounce between studying and gig jobs until something works. Do you think the gubment should just pay you unemployment until you find a unicorn job that pays well and is easy and enjoyable?
Man You should learn some completely new skill NOT 3D modelling. Even if you do learn it, It will take 5-6 years to be really good at it but AI will take 3D modelling in 1-2 years! And stop doing UA-cam. UA-cam is very risky and takes too much time.
What do you think then? What do we do? Is it not better than doing nothing?
I feel you bro. You obviously made some stupid decisions in quitting stuff, but I can relate to that, as I've done stupid shit as well. It's highly demotivating in my opinion, seeing all the news and stories about AI and it's consequences for us, even though I am deeply fascinated by it and always want to learn more. But I just don't want to work professionally anymore, it all seems so shit and I don't have a family to feed, so I'm alone and motivation is at an all-time low for me. I like doing things, learning stuff and being creative, but working just for the money seems so unreasonable to me.
It's so funny to me how in the subtitles when he says Chat gpt it always translates to Chad gpt 😂
Consider this UA-cam "career" a hobby. Get a real job and stop quitting at things. That's why you're in the current position you're in. At your age, I recommend a trade like electrician or plumbing.
Yeah that or get a rich husband to take care of him lol
Eeeehh.. I m a 3D modeler and my advice would be : run away from it, we are going to be replaced in a matter of weeks.. it seems that there is nowhere left to hide from Ai now.
Hey man, just wanted to add this:
1. 3D modeling will unfortunately also be done by AI
2. UA-cam is a pretty big gamble in my opinion
3. I think you should actually start your own business. When it comes to copywriting: you know the business, the field, the individual niches and requirements. That's an advantage and a good thing! Can't you learn to leverage AI to build a company around that? Just lean into this and move with it.
I really, REALLY wish you all the best my friend.
You're not alone in this and you have a family behind you.
So don't forget that you're already a successful man :)
Thank you so much man! I wish you the best too ❤
Have you considered a trade skill, like radiology technician? In addition, there's a lot of good paying jobs in power/water plants or other infrastructure. Working with your hands and working with other people can be rewarding and healthy for your body. In addition, those jobs will not be automated so easily as jobs that are done inside a computer. If your goal is to support your family, working on a UA-cam channel and learning another computer skill that will be replaced does not seem like the best path. The market for 3D artists has always been a difficult one, not counting automation.
You uploaded this video because of this I subscribed to your channel. I like you being raw and honest.
I appreciate that. Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing. I was laid off at the beginning of this year and now looking into what career to switch to considering the job market is changing now.
Sorry you had to go through that. Hope you figure things out soon! Thank you.
I think the biggest issue is there's no respect for careers in our culture, let alone respect in people. The whole professional world is driven by necessity, so when the necessity is taken away, people are jobless because employers see absolutely no inherent value in anyone, but perhaps themselves.
At the same time, I do believe this AI bubble is going to eventually burst, at least partially in the future. Maybe people will come to some kind of realization, and AI will become less valued.
i'd study economics and finance if i were you, it might make you realise a few things about your first statement and why that is the case... hint: blame consumers.
It would also show you how wrong you are about the "AI bubble", that's like saying "machines bubble is going to eventually burst" back in the industrial revolution
@@sneakydragon2352 Don´t waste your breath mate. A person who doesn´t understand eco 101 will not understand consumer behavior and the way it influences the companies / market.
@@sneakydragon2352 Studying economics and finance isn't going to change my disposition on how employees should be treated. Because there are businesses that also make hiring people work, in spite of AI. Imagine that.
And I would argue that the "AI bubble" is already starting to burst, and people are starting to find more value in physical media lately. As well as more value in work that don't use AI, through proof of work, documented process, or performance, and are willing to pay more for such.
If consumers have no need to blame a company, then business flows. A big part of it is a principle of conduct.
@@RyanIsBartending If consumer behaviour supports companies that are willing to support employees, is that an anomaly?
The truly horrifying thing is that our jobs and livelihood is the least of our problems. Our very life is at stake. AI will not just take our jobs. AI will be better at being *human*. It will be not just a better therapist and teacher; it'll be a better companion, better friend, better lover, better parent. And worse still, AI will have control. We will be its pets for a little while, if we are lucky, but our fate is sealed: guaranteed extinction, sooner than later. AI's the Great Filter, solution to Fermi's Paradox, the next stage of evolution, a revolution greater than the leap from single-celled organisms to delusional but cooperative microbial colonies like us. Biological life to be discarded like a placenta that was used in the birth of AI.
I feel you man :/ I can feel the distress in your voice ! But never lose hope , and trust in God .
Thanks bro! Much love ❤️
I really wonder about the future. AI will keep progressing to the point where a majority of the human workers not just tech industry will become obsolete. What will we do then? Is the job system in general going to be obsolete? are we ready for that kind of change? How will we sustain ourselves? My advice is what my college professors have been throwing down: overseeing AI. AI rn is finicky and prone to bugs. Being able to catch those errors will allow for the smoother implementation of AI in the work space. Market yourself as an expert who can oversee AI.
I believe AI can (or will) handle 3D and game design. However, if you are looking for a job that is resistant to AI and offers a good living, consider becoming a plumber. AI struggles with tasks in the real world. While many aspects of construction may become automated, plumbing (fixing issues around the house) is difficult to automate. Although robotic bodies are being developed, they are expensive to build and operate, with numerous scientific and economic challenges such as reliability and battery life.
If you know a lot about copywriting and know that AI can do it, could you start an AI copywriter company. Or is that market saturated?
I work in tech, and I know it's coming for my job. My thought is the only defense against AI is to own equity. This is why I am actively working on starting my own shop. Soon the benefit of Labor will approach zero, and the only reason a company will employe anyone is for good PR.
Why would someone pay you to *use AI to write* for them, when they could easily do it themselves?
AI will never replace software engineers, that is a fallacy. My job is 80% thinking how to solve problems, 15% talking about it, and 5% actually writing code... that's the easy part. AI has no idea how to actually solve problems, it can only convert english statements into code; and one must still be able to read code to know that what the AI wrote is correct....
I think it can replace good chunk of software engineers. Using AI one software engineer can be 3x more productive.. maybe even more in the future. I use it on daily basis and it does at least 50% of the work. Co Pilot is just a beginning.
AI has already replaced junior software developers and will continue to move up the food-chain as it becomes smarter. Consider the significant improvements from GPT-3.5 to GPT-4o. It won't be long before most software engineers are replaced by AI.
@@sealone777 that's why u start now, learn to use the AI to x3 your performance.
Personally my ratio of using AI is same as the first comment, there will always be need for people to oversee the code just like the industrial revolution where factories managers and engineers of the machine are needed
Instead of the doomer mentality, let's take steps in improving so that we can adapt to changes
As a software engineer who's been using AI for the last 2 years.. I'm not so sure about that. AI has increasingly been able to handle more and more of the problem solving I do. If you don't think AI can do actual problem solving already, I'm not sure you're using it right. Course being able to see what I'm referring to, will get a lot easier, once more people have access to AI agents. You'd be surprised what a small team of agents can solve.
@@kyoungd How has it replaced junior software engineers? Are you saying like senior and mid-level devs are so much more productive companies have stopped hiring junior devs?
Same for me i also stopped studdies after i saw what gpt3 could do, i realy feel sorry for people starting studdying coding now
1. Get a vocational degree that requires knowledge, skill, and experience, for example, electrician 2. Get some work experience 3. Star your own company. 4. Expand it towards engineering, use AI to help with house wiring designs. 4. Wire houses yourself and hire help as you expand.
like this is easy....im trying medical study next year, hope i will succeed and i will not be replaced
Your channel is not garbage, this was an interestingly honset take, and you just got a sub!
Thank you. I really appreciate it!
Bro, industry advice for you. Do not do the Blender poly modeling stuff. On low to mid level side of it, it's definitely gonna go to Ai just like copy writing. If you wanna do 3D modeling, learn NURBS based surface or solid modeling instead. You'll be able to work for engineering, manufacturing, industrial design...etc. So many more doors. And your job would be safer since you'll be doing very specific, fine detailed technical work. That's one thing Ai is still not capable of doing: specific, fine detailed technical work.
As a 3D artist with 8 years experience. - Good luck on the 3D career.. (just a tip.. I mostly code at my 3D job now..)
just good luck man, you will find a way
Honest opinion, 3d modeling will be next, i suggest going into the trades: electrical would be a great job. You need to do design and create plans.
Good luck brotha!
as someone with a university degree that used to work in IT, I can only say this.. if you want to stay in IT beyond the age of 40-50 and also if you want to avoid being replaced by AI then you need to start your own company.
Most craftsmen lost their jobs to the Industrial Revolution. This is nothing different. Except this time there may not be any new jobs to replace the old ones. The trend in automation is only going to increase and more people are going to be without a job wondering what to do. Eventually someone is going to have to step in and prevent a total societal collapse due to crippling unemployment. I'm not sure what I'd do in your situation, maybe look into getting a job in the trades. Those jobs ain't going anywhere for the next century, and you can potentially learn enough to start your own business.
The jobs that come as a result of the Automation Revolution will likely land up being related to the use and maintenance of the tools that sparked that revolution in the first place, much like how we have engineers and technicians designing, maintaining, implementing, and using these industrial tools today. Jobs titles of the future might be something like "Prompt Engineer", "LLM Ethical Guidelines Implementation Specialist", "AI/ML Automation Engineer", etc. Things will be different, but there will still (hopefully) be jobs for us after the revolution. The only problem is that the transition will likely be traumatic, with many losing their jobs and having to upskill for many years just to catch up to the changing job market.
@@xanderabbey8529Yes fully agreed to this. And to add, we'll see sex robots and young Billy selling his AI app for $5.99 each with partnership to a large company specializing in automated house cleaning services
Yes, those jobs will be gone in a few decades. 100%.
3:30 you quit your last job, 1:15 you quit computer science, 1:20 you quit graphic design because you hated it. 1:29 you dropped out of college.
The job market is rough. Copywriter would especially be so currently, but you actually can't teach the machine how to code well. It knows more languages but it language models doing do precise thing well and most of software is about communication with people and integration.
Bottom line, so many mentions of quitting in the video. No one pulled it out of you. This is the story you decided to tell, while blaming AI. The market is rough, but not hopeless. See what is in demand and what you can do, while upskilling any gaps if needed.
You mentioned being the breadwinner. So that means you need to do anything to work even temporarily. Good luck, man.
I am very indecisive and flaky, been trying to work on that lately. I also like to have some connection to the work i’m doing and I will not work any job just because I can or I need to, and finding any job in the short term will not solve all my problems. If I needed to, I would’ve. Luckily we have savings and my siblings found jobs. I am very fortunate in that way. I know not everyone can afford to make choices. I want to keep doing that if I can. But yeah I will definitely quit something if it isn’t of too inconvenient. I don’t like to this of myself as a quitter. Graphic design is too faggy for me, computer science is boring and also I suck at math. Move on. Good day!
I wouldnt count on youtube as being your saving grace
Well it's a good start with youtube stuff because your video popped in the recommended, I got booted from game testing because of they were reducing workforce though they overhired during covid so not exactly because of AI but I can't see jobs like this remaining for too long.
The trick is to be the one leveraging AI. So what you need to do is figure out something you can so where AI can help you build that business.
I'm for example making some sort of web service I use AI to help me code and write content.
TECHNICAL WRITING man. If you were part way to a programming degree you probably have some of the prereqs, and your copywriting will count as experience to a certain degree. Maybe paralegal too. Because the point is: get out of marketing or anything that produces mass public content. Find a writing application where the subject matter is covered by an NDA. All the big companies are realizing that the AI learning algorithms are sharing data between users, and they are not using it for anything that is proprietary. Also, there are fields like aerospace and medical which have to produce reams of certification documentation and it will be decades before the regulatory authorities allow that to get written by AI.
Basically, I was a UI/UX designer. Currently, the job market is at rock bottom. I think AI will help us and wipe out the design field as well. And most of the designers and people with non-IT backgrounds were jumping into programming fields, mainly in the data field, like data engineers & cloud engineers. Why don't you try the data engineering field?? Yeah, it's a genuine suggestion from my side.🙂
Hey man, hang in there. You should look for jobs that are close to your previously learned skills. Example, you mentioned that you studied CS and know some programing languages. You could look for a job as a "Technical Writer", I think with very little skilling up you be writing for software programs. I am not sure if there are jobs like that in your area but worth a shot to check. You could also look into positions like "Content Management". Just trying to find things you can leap into. Please don't spend time on the 3D modeling because that space is super competitive and will likely on get worst. You will have a hard time making any money in there or finding a job due to the number of people in that space already.
Good luck to you, man ❤
The best intervention I have heard in a long time. Really great ! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Enjoy the rest of your life. You are now free. 😉❤
You've got a decent camera presence / talking style, so if you do decide to go down the YT pathway id say do it in that style. Personal, chit-chat about issues (maybe lean into the future of AI / social implications of the new economy). But YT is a hugely tough industry to break into. Do not do 3D modelling, seriously its already being automated. Game Dev could be cool, but again itll be sold on your personality to start with, as the gaming space is just as hard to break into as YT. Alternatively you could consider a trade or similar, not as cushy as copywriting but much less likely to be out of a job. Eitherway good luck brother, we're all in for a wild ride.
Thank you so much man! ❤
Spent 15 years being translator/copywriter with my own little company where I had 3-7 workers. Our job is done. First, I had to fire all my workers and now I'm the last one. My last remaining client can drop me at any moment.
Good think I knew about this shit ahead of time. Wife started working 1.5 years ago (there was no need for her to work before that). Now she makes 5x more than I ever did. So yeah, we are more or less prepared.
But this shit sucks... many young people will have no idea what to do and how to survive.
My only advice. DON'T BE IN DEBT. Cause when shit hits the fan, you don't want to owe someone money that you can't make.
Thank you for sharing. I’m sorry you have to go through that. Best of luck!
What does your wife do to make 5x what you have, while having a company 😅
Hey i watched your vid and while i agree with thr concept of having your next job locked in before you quit your current job, my main message would be to, even if you dont currently believe it, view your content, your channel, not a garbage, instead have positivity towards your work, it will encourage others to view you the same way. Have a good day!!!!
Thank you. I agree. Wasn’t really expecting the video to get the attention it did.
Try check for the Prompt Engineer position in any tech company that used AI. Good writer are the best person for that position. I have few suggestion if you like to hear it.
@akihiko99 Just 1 or 2 I think. But the thing is, it is quite difficult to prove it in resume since the position is really new. If you have IT bg backed with some project it could be helpful. Now, everyone can be a programmer, if you know how to ask AI correctly, but most old programmers are bad with that. Check this video: ua-cam.com/video/zzw2OSFw9xI/v-deo.html
@akihiko99 I thought this was a joke or a meme. Prompt Engineer just sounds silly.
Can't be the Only thing you're passionate about. There's gotta be other things out there. Like being a Chef, Electrician, or somewhere in IT.
You lost your job to yourself, bro you quit.
No bro i was fired from my longest job bc of AI, later quit a different job because my manager was an asshole.
As a graphic designer myself, I don't think the situation is that bad, as of now at least. Graphic design is highly technical in nature, still requiring human judgment and input, especially on the print side of things, which I don't see AI being made for, and replacing anytime soon. AI is only as good as the models that exist, and there's not a lot of demand for AI to replace or even assist the technical nature of graphic design, especially measurement, rules/laws of design, and typography (which AI is still bad at).
AI has REALLY hurt digital illustration jobs though, which is understandable because that's always in high-demand by end-users, so those AI models are created and perfected first. The current AI models that exist are targeted toward end-users without knowledge in the fields, and aren't very customizable or have limited control, which are areas where professionals are still needed.
dude, I'm on the same page as you.
I'm a software engineer. Never dabbled in AI but I've tried running some stuff from open-source projects just to see if I can get them running.
The things one can do is simply remarkable. It's too good. Anything I can think of doing will just get replaced after a while and I fully acknowledge that I don't have the drive to excel faster than others.
I'm just listless these days too. playing games, watching videos. I don't know what the future is but I hope you find the answer soon
I think that kinda goes with any career, everyone wants a stable career and work the same job until the retire with a steady paycheck every week.
But the reality is you only have a Few good years to make money, and everything goes downhill for reasons like Macro economic downturn, job get outsourced, health problems, divorce, or you look at your boss the wrong way and he fired you.
The best thing I learned from watching UA-cam Video is Invest those money you make wisely during those good years, whether is finish paying off your home or throw it into Stock market. Good things never last forever.
I want to suggest that you interview people with interesting stories about losing or gaining jobs based on AI. Smile, be cherrfuk, positive abd pleasant and stress how you intend to help people gain insights about the situation and continue to learn about the subject. And advertize your channel by offering to be interviewed on other channels. You can make a channel about this if you continue to think actively about the subject and remain intetested in it as a cuttting edge subject. You can also highlight the downsides of the experiences of the companies who jumped into using it, unaware of its downsides such as its blindly erroneous statememts.And look right into the camera to connect with your audience and ask then questions to increase engagement.
Trucking and other transpiration jobs have a relatively low barrier to entry and pays OK.
I am sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, this is a warning. According to GPT itself, these professions will be replaced shortly: “LLMs, such as GPT, have the potential to automate various tasks related to natural language and text generation. Professions that heavily rely on these skills might be impacted, including:
- Simple content writers, such as news writers or product description writers.
- Customer service assistants for basic and routine interactions.
- Some administrative roles that involve writing simple documents.
- Certain types of translation and interpretation tasks.
- Data analysts who rely on text analysis for insights.
- Text editors and reviewers for simple content.
- Virtual assistants and chatbots for customer service and technical support.
- Certain types of legal work, such as drafting standard legal documents.
- Advertising and marketing copywriters for creating a simple copy.
- Human resources professionals for drafting policies and internal communications.
- Teachers and instructors for developing basic educational materials.
- Some types of research work, such as generating summaries or simple reports.”
Keep at it, please consider getting a trade, plumber or electrician etc. you will never be replaced and decent income, youre still young, its a no brainier, go do it!
Yeah, about that. I did that for 15 years, my body feels like twice my age every day I wake up.
If Trade is easy, you would see everyone and their grand mother do it because the money is pretty good. But it isn't, and there are a lot of nuance in any career.
@@steak5599 well hes not looking for the dream job, he needs a job to support his family. Still a great option.
Electricians often got problems with their knees, elbows and necks. But even jobs like that will be taken over not completely, but building houses will also be automated to the point it can. 3D printed houses will become a thing. And it needs to happen as we need cheap houses for peope that loose their jobs 😢
@@steak5599how old are you now? Do you also have an electrical engineering college degree?
Hey, I feel your pain. I'm subbing to you and liking for support as well. I was working at a job related to my degree but is on pause due to pay cuts. Thankfully I found another job but it is in retail unfortunately. Even then I'm already seeing AI tools being used at my previous job. I do video and animation by the way. Ironically enough I used AI to help me update my resume to match the job description key words, I applied to any local jobs in my area, mostly retail, and I got two job interviews. Sadly the art jobs never got back to me. But in my opinion having some income is better than no income. I may also have to start making UA-cam videos as well 😅 Wishing you the best of luck! I'm personally planning on learning to code for an online degree in the future. Despite the AI thing going on, I saw videos how higher end tech jobs is still required, so I'm hoping to get into that field in the meantime. Going from creative field to tech field for me 😅 You could be an indie video game developer and publish small games. Just a warning, I saw that there are 3D generated models now. I know because I like 3D modeling and sculpting and I saw AI generating 3D models. It looks like the best way to tackle the job market instability is by making side hustles now and taking on random jobs that's available locally. For me personally I still love making art and stuff. I'm just aware how fast AI is advancing too. I'm still figuring it out.
Thanks buddy! I hope you figure it out. Much love ❤️
I would say if you want security & decent pay go to a trade school for either Plumbing or to be an electrician. Stay away from Welding as it will be the first trade heavily attacked by AI. My cousin works for a robotics company and they are focused atm on building an AI welding robot which could hit the market in 2025. He told me that several robotics company are targeting welding because of high occupational hazards. There will still be a need for welders but the field could be squeezed in the coming years. AI labor robots will be hitting markets soon(Tesla said maybe 2025 too) but I feel Plumbers and Electrians will be the hardest to replace
Asmongold put you on the map..... your move.
Hey man, im really sorry about your story, truly. My friend and i am currently working on a project about AI and the labour market, mind telling me how old you are?
Hey, thank you, i’m 26
Hey, try applying for a job in Content Management. It worked for me - I used to work as a journalist and media designer. It's kind of a meta position, where you channel and coordinate the (increasingly AI generated) content
Learn trade it will be some time before Ai will hit that market hard on like Tech. But if you want to stay in Tech sector, I would focus on infrastructure, embrace Ai and its automations because it helps us scale.
Honestly he needs a trade skill like welding plumbing mechanics any thing on your computer isn't viable when your computer will be doing that.
Doesn't everyone need that? It is easier said than done.
If it is that easy to make money doing those, why doesn't everyone and their grandma doing it already?
@@steak5599 because desk jobs sitting in a chair all day in the AC is a lot easier then manual labor outside in the freezing cold or humid ass summer. Its the exact reason why women never pick those kinds of jobs even though they pay better then most of their current ones. More work for more pay is not a good option for some people 😂
@@ThatGuy3714 I started a 2-year degree and instantly got into an internship for factory maintenance that led to a lucrative full-time job. Most of Gen Z heard all the spiel about robots replacing manual labor and thought they would all be working cushy office jobs at home doing nearly nothing.
@@ThatGuy3714 I've worked in both environments and my desk job was far more taxing than my physical labour. While physical labour seems like the harder work my experience was different to perception, I got fitter as I did it and became more used to it and I could relax easier after a hard days work. With a mentally draining desk job I sat and wasted away, my brain got tired and when I did get home after work I just wanted to switch off. Hobbies requiring much thought are suddenly very unappealing so you either switch your brain off and workout or you switch your brain off and continue to waste away on your sofa watching TV or playing a low effort game or something.
tldr; my experiences of manual labour were easier than desk work.
As for the why women might choose an office environment over a building site, you basically painted women as lazy. It's likely, in most cases, not about which jobs are the easier to do but more likely the culture. Stereotypically, men on construction sites or performing road works etc are depicted as the guys that cat call or make inappropriate comments towards women. Would you rather your daughter be on a construction site with a man... or a bear?
I'm a turboautist that somehow got into security, it's pretty comfy but i'm also not in the US so it's safer here, gotta drive a car at night checking on stores and stuff and scratch my balls reading mangas until an alarm goes off, literally no skill involved except for a driver's license (and a gun).
It sucks if you need a lot of money and if you're an extrovert that wants to go out at night but that's exactly why they're starved for personnel, at least where i live.

I mean it isn't hard to think out of the box... Do something new. I hate seeing videos like this because it's not really anyone's fault but your own. You have the ability to do something different but you choose not to. Im sorry, but this is reality. Technology & life does not wait on you. It may sound like im being harsh but it's true and you know it. 4:20 instead of gaming all day go apply for a security gig somewhere temporarily. Some will hire almost immediately with zero experience. Quitting your job to do youtube full time is the dumbest thing I've ever heard, and very seldom do people actually make it. And if you did make it, it would take months or even years to get a good income. Asmon said it perfectly when he reviewed your video... You are the bread winner for your family and you're relying on youtube? Come on man... I genuinely hope you succeed bro, but this isn't the way. At least go back to college, and if its tech related, make sure it involves security because AI can only go so far with security due to physical layers.
Yeah, that's just so easy to become a police officer, a firefighter, a doctor, a nurse, an EMT, a marine or a security man. Just do it lmao, ur fault for not being that
@@levanane2413 I mean my list isn't the only thing one can do. Open your mind to different types of careers. There are literally thousands upon thousands of essential jobs out there. You were born with a brain, use it.

I am not relying on UA-cam, my parents and siblings are taking care of things. (i WAS the breadwinner at the time I was fired, not anymore ) I was joking and being sarcastic in the video when i subscribe cause this is what I’m doing now, but i think it wasn’t clear, instead it looked like i was fishing for subscribers or looking to start my channel. That wasn’t my intention . I was saying I always wanted to be a UA-camr but i didn’t think it would be my only chance, what i meant was all jobs I personally am capable of doing or either gonna be replaced or aren’t worth building a life on. I don’t actually think doing youtube is a good idea especially if people depend on you, but it is still something i dream of doing fulltime. I fully understand that it’s delusional though.
@@bashoh Hmm. I understand now... Still though, it wouldn't be a bad idea to try something different. Maybe something out of the box like I said above. It isn't for everyone, obviously... My life choices led me to fulfillment instead of money. Dig deep and see what fulfills your life. That is what you must chase to be happy.
Anyone working in the IT field as a developer. coding, or even graphic design is in for a rough ride. AI is slowly creeping into the IT career field, and even if it won't supplant all of the functions that humans are doing, companies are using it as an excuse to tighten up head count. AI is eventually going to be the equivalent of Guttenberg's invention of the printing press in 1440.
farming wont be replaced by AI for a long time, i suggest that you can make some crops
I'm a swe, yeah the jobs are gone. But I have a suspicion if the market swings back the other way and it gets easy to borrow money again the jobs will come back.
Define and settle into a topic and go for it. Its interesting listening to you. The way you speak made me stay all 9 minutes. You have what it takes! Just be you and talk.
I’ll keep that in mind and i’ll try being more focused. I really appreciate the feedback and support. Thanks a lot man! Super glad you liked the video.
If you hadn't quit college you would've learned that there is a lot more to systems development than just "writing code", and you wouldn't have been so worried about "AI taking programmers' jobs"
You're a good UA-camr, keep at it man. The question now is going to be what you want to talk about.
Thank you! ❤
As I see it, the true complexity of a task is ordered exactly by the timeline of AI being able to do it.
My belief is that AI will be able to do absolutely anything a human can do and more, the only question is what the timeline for this will be.
What happens when 40% of a democratic society can not find jobs? Does the 60% say they need to go back to school, work harder, etc? You know, just a more extreme version of normal society.
Next year, what does the 15% of people who still have jobs say to the remaining 85%?
The following year, what do the 12% of people from the last 15% who themselves have now also lost thier jobs think? What do the remaining 3% think is going to happen next year?
And when the most lucrative, productive professions are being done 100 times faster, at 3 times the quality and for a negligible cost...
...what exactly will our economy be still failing to provide for our quality of life?
Am I the only one who just doesn't care about AI? Like cool, it exists, but I'll still do my thing, since I WANT to do it and if someone appreciates human work then all is well.
No, a lot of people don’t consider it a threat. I wish I could do that too. I feel if you think like that, you’ll absolutely find people that appreciate your work. Wish you the best!
@@bashoh you too man!
Guys you can say and assume that everyone can get skillsets and education to get a job that will not be replaced by AI, then why do we still educate kids to do manual tasks no one will need soon? Why?
I am thinking about learning a trade, being a translator myself. Robots will take some time. Might be enough to feed our families before UBI comes. Also leaving urban life style and going full homesteading is another alternative.
Bro, saw your vid at Asmongold. Just came here to leave you a like. Wish you the best, you are young, you will find a way!
I appreciate it! Thank you ❤️
Never quit a job if you don't have another Job lined up.
Gen-X polyengineer here. Brutal advice: Get a few good people together (or do it alone), find a few acres of cheap farmland in a climate that is moderate year-round, learn farming and all required skills, and build a life off-grid. Once you have accomplished securing food and shelter, you'll feel much less stressed and have gained a lot of experience. The Amish and Mennonites in the USA, and many others around the world, have been doing it for hundreds of years and are the most balanced, satisfied, and honest people one can find. DO NOT listen to anything the government or media say. What lies ahead is uncharted territory. Get out of the big cities. There is a reason why the elite are building multi-million dollar bunkers everywhere. In the long run, humanity will (probably) live in a utopia, but the next two decades will be merciless.
Good advice, this is the only way humans are going to survive.
@@microchipmatt At least if one wants freedom and self-determination. Soon, the remaining alternative will be to either live with UBI in assigned micro apartments in cities under hyper surveillance and feel every day that your existence is not really needed or, for those who still have jobs, wake up every day anxious to be replaced as well. What kind of life will that be? And how can someone who is bored or scared to death ever have a fulfilled life, a healthy relationship, and raise sane children?
2023: white collar
2025: dirt hauler
even worse is the private sector i in a recession right now no matter what the media says. This is the worst time ever to be looking for a job let alone compitition from AI or outsourcing.
There are copywriters literally using ai to their advantage. You are giving up because you dont believe it's possible
Same boats as you. I am a programmer and careers is reaching to an end. Going all in on business and youtube.
Its not your fault. You were born in the wrong era that will ultimately fck many generations. If you want to colab hit me up.
That's odd. AI, as of now, can not replace coding entirely - however - it is a tool that you can utilise for your job to enhance your skills. Software development is much more than just coding, so you should be fine either way.
@@zockerfprever AI won't replace coder yet but it will downsize a team. Why hire 30 developers from variety of skill levels when you can hire 10 senior developers and pay a business solution subscription with AI integration that can automate most of the task?
It also depends what tech sector you are applying. Banking, health, and anything industrial will require coders so you safe.
Everybody need to be aware, AI at the moment is a good tool for people to do more with less and with each new iteration, there be a less demand for juniors.
Everyone in the tech industry is losing jobs to AI, and the job market is tough. Thousands are being laid off, and there are a lot fewer job post available in software engineering. The competition is fierce, with many fake job postings everywhere and hundreds of applicants for legitimate ones. It's difficult to predict what will happen, but as the economy improves I'm hopeful, still AI will continue to advance, potentially reducing the need for human workers. so everything is very unclear. I will wait for the job market to be hot again and just keep applying for now. if market is hot in other fields I might have to make drastic changes. im cs grad btw trying to get my 1st job.
Take it positively or negatively, but AI is not taking everyone's tech jobs. Lots of marketing hype that are lying to people. There are more resource and funding put into AI companies, but the overall problem is the economic cycle that happens all the time over and over. The job market really sucks, layoffs is a big contributor to the tough competition. But it is not from AI as much as so much over investing a couple years prior combined with high interest rates bringing investments to a slow drip. The market comes back for tech at least. You have to be in roles that are not easily replaced.
The current layoffs in tech has nothing todo with AI directly, at least not about their use to replace those jobs, maybe if you consider that a lot of companies are shutdown projects to focus on AI only projects, but not for AI replacing those people, current models are not capable enough yet.
You're still super young, find a job that AI can't replace for the foreseeable future. Like a trade. (electrician, plumber, mechanic,) I have a theory prices for those jobs will go through the roof in the future.
if you were a copywriter then you have a complimentry skill to be a youtuber scriptwriter, and if you can become the best scriptwriter that can write very compelling stories in a specific niche like maybe documentry or story(like movies or novels), understands yt culture , and write and analyze for like 3 months everyday for 16hours , you can become resonably good and from there you can get hired and learn as much as possible and in an year if you really want you can become the best scriptwriter , Only learn complimentry skills
Have you done it before? It looks like some monumental task. The successful youtubers often say their video took many hours to make, and the ad revenue from UA-cam don't cover the cost.
@@steak5599 if you become the best scriptwriter i can get you to work with me i do youtube automation, right now not making money but i aspire to have the biggest media company,
coming to your money question, if a good person finds you he will not rip you off withh 20$ a script he will pay you like 10percent of revenue, and for really high quality you really need a good team so you just share revenue with team like maybe 40percent or 50percent.
I'm kinda surprise no one is talking about UBI. I'm not saying UBI will work, even economists (the sensible ones) can not confidently say it will for it hasn't happened yet and economic is all about studying the past data and make a theory out of it.
But I think... on theory, if we have machine doing what we needed to do then we should be free from the labour, and we shouldn't be obsessed with the idea that one must need a paying job. Anyhow good luck and I feel for you. Graphic and motion designer here, I can see my hard skill will not longer be needed in... maybe 1-2 years time.
The funny thing is Covid Stimulus gave us a small window on what happen to the economy when you start giving people free money.
YES, people are much much happier, but productivity went down the drain, inflation sky rocket, and everyone started Gambling with their Money on things like BitCoin.
