I've been reading your content for at least a year. I think your knowledge and intuition about what's happening in AI is incredibly valuable. In fact, it's why I get interested in AI coming out of a major slump.

I kept reading about the latest AI news and my mind was open. When I came across a white label Saas option last fall, I jumped on it and built a writing and learning platform for Coaches, Solopreneurs and Freelancers. It was already my niche and I could easily grasp the user case.

Even though companies are downsizing, the jobs being developed in AI are fairly expansive and have the potential to be affirming if we can help people see the opportunities. You've been doing a great job with it!

I'm fairly certain that AI won't replace me since generative AI thrives on creative input. My actual tasks will likely change, but my role will continue to be an AI educator, designer and consultant. 💫

AI is destroying music (and the rest of fine arts for that matter first). The fact major artists are selfish enough to disregard another generation of performers by co-signing and selling their voice for this bullshit will signal the death knell of American music (as if corporate greed hasn't done that already). In 10 years people will be used to listening to AI generated content, leaving the real performers going outside the American market to countries that reign in this tech and don't let it destroy their citizenry.

"Since the AI craze began, you’ve probably heard the phrase: "AI will not replace humans, but humans who use AI will replace humans who don't." There’s definitely some truth to that. But we’re not considering the jobs that will be completely eliminated."

The polar opposite is true. ^This^ is precisely *how* some jobs will be "completely eliminated".

Even in areas like that telemarketing firm I forget the name of that replaced whole teams of customer service agents and a substantial part of their marketing department with AI, they employ a few people to maintain them. This directly considers the jobs being eliminated, as this is the process through which that happens.

AI-powered products often miss the mark, becoming irrelevant or malfunctioning. Companies like NVIDIA and OpenAI, however, integrate AI successfully. Despite claims that AI won't replace jobs, rising layoffs and AI advancements suggest otherwise.
