How close are you to being fully obsolete?

The correct response to becoming obsolete is to learn something new, not to fight the thing making you obsolete. Doing the latter is about as productive as yelling at the tide to not come in.

Yes, I guess it's like complaining about nuclear weapons. Best to embrace them.

If we can do it, we should do it. All technology is progress. All technology improves the human existence.

It's irrelevant whether the technology is good or bad. There's nothing you can do to stop it happening, so do you want to complain, or do you want to embrace the change and stay ahead of the curve?

I work on deep learning professionally, at the most important company in the space. I even have open source deep learning projects, most recently:

I profit from your obsolescence. I'm making you obsolete. I know what I'm doing. I'm making you worthless. The fact that you can fail to do even a basic check into me speaks volumes.

Very impressive, but if I spent my days googling the random hex usernames of every person I replied to on hacker news I'd be obsolete even faster :)
