The more that LLMs, chat gpt, claude, vibe coding, etc ramp up, the more interested I am in getting formal training in electrical, plumbing, hvac, etc.

The creative arts would be great to focus on as well. AI is only as “creative” as those operating it

Supposedly something like a quarter of all coding jobs have been eliminated by AI so far. 39K layoffs in the tech sector.

Yes. And I use AI to code now, am 5x more productive

i call bs.. AI isnt eliminating jobs, but there has been increased layoffs

Me to DevOps guy: Time to beat for my current process is 20 minutes.

DevOps guy interjecting at the next meeting: Why did that take you all day if my process time to beat is 20 minutes?

Me: Unboxing, racking, cable runs, power, driving to the site, and figuring out addressing and naming to use are all out of scope for your program last time I checked. My time to enter all settings once all settings are known and physical install is complete stands at about 20 minutes.

I was right, out of scope. It's a shame, we would be launching a very successful business right now if he had figured out a way to get those other steps in scope for DevOps automation.

reminds me of mcdonalds kpi on order fulfillment time being like 18 seconds

Easily doable if everything is pre-made and assembled rotting under a heat-lamp.

Good, quick, and cheap; pick 2.
