TJ Walker warns that AI will threaten most jobs in the next 5-10 years. Political protections won't help. Instead, learn something new every day, create daily, and become an AI developer rather than someone AI replaces.
I realize we're still in the middle of a pandemic. You may be unemployed or underemployed, but there's a bigger challenge I think we all have to face every single day, and that's the threat to our careers. Not next month, but five years from now, ten years from now. That's the threat coming from artificial intelligence. Now, you can hope that the political system takes care of you with some kind of protection, but to me, that seems risky. To me, the ultimate way of hedging against this threat is to learn a new skill every single day. Create something, innovate every single day. You want to stay a foot or two ahead of artificial intelligence before it gobbles up your job. In the end, you want to be able to write the artificial intelligence, not be eaten by it.
