I'm kind of sick of being a dev. I hate AI with a passion.

I hate the hallucinations, I hate slop, I hate megacrops, I hate the environmental impacts, I hate the massive costs. I could go on but you get the picture.

At work I often times have to review vibe code slop from people who clock in 9 to 5 and don't give a fuck (I respect that, I just wish your fucking code wasn't slop)

I'm sick of it, I'm sick of hearing about AI tooling or new models or bro agentic actions bro based on your documentation bro.

I want to switch careers, so which career is not ruined by AI?

Not my experience, at least not here in Norway โ€“ in fact, there's been a pretty big backlash against the digitalization of childhood in schools and kindergartens, so I'd be very surprised if there's any increasing pressure on us to use computers at all with the children. A colleague of mine put on some movies a handful of times in December, and even that caused some concerned messages from parents.

At least part of the world isn't racing to the bottom

Unfortunately the countries with high population and public education being negligible, have really low pay.

I heard Norway and Sweden kindergarten teachers get 120,000 USD ! that sounds great.

hehe, I wish, but no, the starting salary is more like $55 000, increasing to about $65 000 as you get more experience.

oh no. That does sound low. But i do believe if your interest lies in teaching it brings you joy.

Can someone in their late twenties start teaching in nordic schools? Or do they have to begin studying for 2+ diploma courses?
