I'm 46 and I think the last few small contracts that I picked up were from older clients, even though I applied to quite a few other ones. So age discrimination does seem to maybe be a factor. But maybe with those clients it helped being a little older? Don't know. But for me, my real concern is just trying to come up with an AI-powered business over the next few years before I am being discriminated against not only because I am older, but also because I am human that wants to be paid more than $1 per hour. On RunPod a 4090 is only like $.50/hor and can run Mixtral very easily in quantized mode. The open models like Mixtral are getting very, very good. And when you combine that with specialized agents for particular application areas, and then the ability to consult multiple agents per project, easily adding knowledge with RAG or automatically generated fine tuning datasets, etc.. There might be a lot of competition from AI programmers within a few years. But regardless, I needed to find a way to create a "real" online business. The new and anticipated abilities of AI make it a bit more urgent I think. I'm trying to build an agent hosting platform because I think that within a couple of years, everyone will expect to be able to run LLMs/agents on their own computer natively. So I am guessing we will have something like WordPress for agents. Hoping people will consider my tool.
