Personally, I am eyeballs deep in this industry and even I’m now hoping to see it all burn to the ground. I’ve already concluded that I’ll never make it to retirement in my field, probably because of automation. Fuck ‘em all.
Same for me... It's depressing. And I no faith the government will do anything besides make it worse. If we're lucky we'll get the Expanse 's version of basic.
Yeah, same here honestly. I’m sick of the ai cringe fest and the egotistical tech bros being so annoying and full of themselves and being arrogant. The tech bros are insufferable
The industry is not that bad, but it's just one of them.
People need art. And art doesn't survive in environments where there should be a winner and winner takes all.
Art is the social alternative of recessive genes. It allows to preserve more than needed "right now in this particular situation". Without art there's degeneracy.
I am not sure what you are implying. There will always be art. Art does not need to be a commercial success to be expressive.
Which part of the industry?
I would describe it as the application layer of all this AI shit. We are doing very well right now, but I’m just waiting for the turn.
Same for me. I was directly responsible for automation of AI infrastructure builds. It was miserable and I felt terrible. I transferred out of that org but now I'm writing software using the tools created by our AI infra. I made a lot this year due to equity increase and maybe next year but I want to be out.
