Cut Through the Noise

Let's cut through the noise.

Everyone is panicking. They're talking about the "AI bubble." They're talking about how it's affecting their jobs. How it's replacing them. How it's brought more harm than good.

The truth is, AI is great. And the panic is a distraction.

Refusing AI Is a Critical Mistake

Refusing to integrate AI into your work is a critical mistake. It's like being a boomer who refused to use the internet.

You will be left behind. You will be the person who doesn't know how to export a PDF in your later years. It will be detrimental to your growth.

This is not optional.

A Rare Moment

This is a rare time. It's a moment where you can genuinely feel like you have a superpower. The world was just introduced to it.

Great power and massive efficiency are now on the table. But only if you use it correctly. And only if you have the fundamental knowledge of your subject. AI is a multiplier for skill, not a replacement for it.

The Bubble Will Burst

Now, let's talk about the bubble. Because it will burst.

The relationship between Nvidia, Microsoft, AMD, and the AI labs is incestuous. It's a tangled web of investments. It can only go on for so long.

Companies are grossly overestimating how much they'll gain. Execs are way too optimistic. They have no idea what kind of work goes into the background. They don't understand the mental work that developers and creatives do every single day.

The Real Harm

And this is the real harm... Because of their clueless optimism, they are hollowing out the junior workforce. They're leaving only mid to senior-level people. They think the AI will just "handle" the rest.

They are wrong.

Don't Be That Person

It's a lot of mental work. And AI, in its current form, isn't a thinker. It's a co-pilot.

It will only replace one kind of person. The person who refuses to augment. Don't be that person.
