Workers describe getting fired or nearly replaced by AI, then discuss why pivoting toward the technology rather than resisting it is their best move forward. The group treats job displacement as inevitable and adaptation as the only real option.
Chapters
Your role was eliminated. I don't understand. We.
We just put an offering on a house.
Everything okay?
Just a small fire at work.
Dan. Dan. Dan.
Yeah?
You sure you have to go into work tomorrow? Might be good for you to have a transition day at home.
I wish. But I should go in. I think there's a lot I need to catch up on.
I get it.
Great minds. Yeah.
I just got this.
It's a good one.
Seems like it. I just. Not sure about AI and that's the thing.
Doesn't matter how you feel about it. AI Is going to happen whether you like it or not.
Believe me, I know. What's happening.
Damn. Didn't sound great.
I just got fired yesterday. Replaced by my company's new AI Something.
Similar happened to me about a year ago. Really?
Yeah.
But I only got overlooked for a promotion. Though. I never thought I'd count myself as lucky. But maybe I was.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. Just not sure where to go from here. I've never felt lost like this before.
I get it. It's a new world out there, and that's disorienting, to say the least.
Yeah, exactly. I don't know what to do.
Well, maybe you should start with the closest lifeline you have. Now.
That'S. That's a good idea.
Listen, it seems like AI won the first battle with you.
Oh, yeah.
But it's a long way to go. The ultimate winners will be whoever embraces.
AI I think that's true. Cuz ignoring it sure hasn't worked out so far.
