Maybe I can't. But that's also why I'm invested into AI companies right now.

Plan:

1. Keep my job for as long as I can by leveraging current AI tools to the best of my ability while my non-AI user colleagues lose earnings power or their job

2. Invest my money into AI companies and/or S&P500

3. If I'm truly rendered useless, live off of the investment

You got any better ideas? How would you do this?

I believe that I’ll keep enough of an edge in my job that I’ll continue to be employed. (At present I still have zero pressure to use AI, though I do use it.) It’s of course possible for that to turn out to be wrong, but in that case I also see no chance to start a business, and society will be in a lot of trouble.

I don't believe I can. If I don't use AI tools at work, I'm for sure going to get fired and/or passed up for promotions.
