With the lastest news of AI layoffs, I’m struggling to understand how the idea of a career still holds. If careers themselves effectively become gambles like lottery tickets, how do we maintain drive and hopes in the longterm endgame of our struggles?
I know AI as an honest utility is itself a lie to some extent, but this only aids my argument further. People’s career struggles are panning out to be valueless because of a nothing-fad that no one could have predicted.
Some jobs will be very difficult to replace with AI. People who can do so will try to flock to those. Personally, I think the only peaceful way forward will require UBI. Without that, sharpen the guillotines.
UBI?
Universal Basic Income
University of Boise Idaho
Urinary Balls Infection.
Unknown Balloon Intelligence.
I think this one is my favorite out of all the joke replies lol
That’s the company that made those assassin games
Urethra Bottle Insertion
Uncle Bob’s Income
Only a matter of time before the economy collapses because all these companies replace their workers with AI, only to find that no one can buy their services because everyone is out of a job.
I can’t predict the future but that very much sounds like something our overlords would do.
I can totally see it happening because these companies are so dead set on cutting costs that they’re not seeing the bigger picture.
