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.
I think google’s recent AI strokes, like them advising you to jump of a bridge, are a great example of companies panicking to innovate, to not be left behind. In the meantime they forget to check their implementations, their products and their quality. They’ll slowly dwindle, transform inyo something unrecognizable, but all through their downfall, they’ll continue making money for the shareholders.
