You don't want to automate your job?
I work at solving these problems because I wish they were already solved. If some AI came along and solved them better, that would be great. Then I could move on to more interesting problems.
- mitthrowaway2 2y agoI already automated the uninteresting problems, so the ones that I work on are the interesting ones that remain. Once an AI can do what I currently do better than I can, the next-most-valuable thing I can be hired for is repetitive manual labour, where I'll be competing on a cost and speed basis with servo motors.

Build things that support AI, or orchestrate it. One thing humans have and AI models don't is private personal experience. Your perspective can still be useful even if AI can do many things on its own. Another thing humans have and AI don't - responsibility, you can't do anything to a bad AI, you can punish a person, so we can trust people more where there is a big stake.
