I mean it will be very competitive and didn't mean you specifically.

I think you are spot on with this.

I was thinking of going to some type of coding school for cyber security. Glad I didn't spend $12,000 for a 6 month course. Many people in school now must be somewhat panicked. CHEGG went down 45% today because people aren't going to use their online school as much. I decided to go into making furniture instead as I always enjoyed doing it. Hopefully it will take them awhile to replicate wood and 3D print tables at a reasonable cost anytime soon.

Right now it seems best to learn how to use this as a force multiplier for yourself.

The output is not perfect, you still need knowledge to judge if the output is helpful or junk. This will improve but right now you need your own knowledge to supervise it.

Narrow focused (fine tuned) versions of what we see now, I think can be very successful in their fields.

Yeah, bit of a double edged sword. If you're not embracing it and using it you're going to fall behind the curve. But in doing so you're also helping to teach it to replace your current job.

Then it circles around and suddenly you have the ability to do jobs you couldn't before.

Corporations are going to adopt AI either way. Once a competitor is using AI then it forces the hand of the rest of the industry. There is no way a company can justify keeping 5000-6000 extra employees around that other companies have replaced with AI. All that will get them is a falling stock price and in the USA the stock price is ALL that matters to coporations.

Our economy is not set up for AI or advances in technology that eliminate jobs without adding others to replace them. Every innovation has led to more job opportunities but with AI it's not looking good so far.

That's not much different than being forced to train your replacement from China or India or forfeit your severance package. The end result is the same.

Not to mention governments and militaries.

Exactly. Right now, on our campus there is a "design symposium" going on. It is showcasing how templates for components can be used...input some criteria and BAM, out comes a part. This isn't utilizing AI yet. And at the moment, these templates are relying on perfect data in. I've been in this industry over 30 years and I can't remember a time when we've had perfect data to start with.

Once AI is adopted though, and all the learnings from previous MY programs are in it, then the AI might be able to adapt to incorrect data, and work through it, like we do now. It still seems so far off, but with how quickly technology is advancing it will be perfected in no time.

I still ask the same question, like when we started offshoring 20 years ago, who is the customer going to be ? With the cost of products going up, and with thousands out of high paying jobs...It seems like the customer base will be shrinking.
