The only way to win is to already have enough money that you don't need a job.

Or get a physical job AI can't do. But all of those are commodities and pay shit wages.

AI-written article, as a heads up.

The advice is: identify human constraints and remove them with agents.

Yet another simple stupid idea inflated to a massive article with ai.

> You saw a colleague generate something 80% as good in four minutes using an AI agent. Maybe 90% as good if you’re being honest.

Wish this were realistic - I'd have enjoyed the read more.

God damn it. Can people write interesting articles in NORMAL writing style nowadays? Why is everyone writing in these stupid short "punchline" sentences?

I tried to take the headline seriously, but reading deeper into the piece they just do a semantic trick - the current job is "shrinking" and you need to find a new better job to do instead. This is basically what disappearing would imply anyway?

Also very funny to use an AI to write this kind of article. I w wonder how they feel about their job writing blog posts shrinking.

Work that can largely accelerate AI seems pointless to me in the current situation. It’s fairly clear to me that this will soon lead to an oversupply of workers and a drop in wages. It’s possible that wages may even fall to such a level that pursuing those professions will no longer make sense at all. Unfortunately it seems like software engineering will be one of those professions.

We're in a recession, it's the economy that's shrinking, not my job.

The author gives this example of the problem and incorrect way to leverage AI:

"Sarah was relieved. She thought she could focus on high-value synthesis work. She’d take the agent’s output and refine it, add strategic insights, make it client-ready."

Then they propose a long winded solution which is essentially the same exact thing but uses the magical term "orchestrate" a few times to make it sound different.
