Half Of All Skills Will Be Outdated Within Two Years, Study Suggests::AI will redirect jobs and career prospects, but its impact on jobs and tasks is murky.
Executives believe nearly half of the skills that exist in today’s workforce won’t be relevant just two years from now, thanks to artificial intelligence.

Executives are such dumbasses

That is literally all this “study” did. Ask people how many of their skills they think will be obsoleted. This headline is ridiculous.
They’re executives. You can’t convince them their ideas are stupid. At best, you encourage them so they fall on their faces even faster and harder.
That’s what this means. People whose job is approximating trends to fit in and not do too much harm think that an approximation system is going to replace half the jobs.
That’s not even critique of them - somebody should do those jobs until there is a replacement. And they consist in large part of diplomacy and such very human interactions, it’s a bit like with replacing prostitutes with machines. Same problem.
LLMs aren’t gonna replace anyone’s jobs anytime soon. Their true power is making people even more productive.
I keep getting told that AI is gonna replace devs. While copilot at work is fucking awesome to use, it’s also created the scenario where AI doesn’t have to compete with devs anymore, it has to compete with devs who can use an AI to automate the easy stuff and do even more impactful work. You can apply this to basically all jobs. So until the LLMs can outperform a human + AI we’re gonna be fine.
Not to mention until an AI can coax out what the fuck anyone even wants us to build in the first place I think we’re safe.
Yeah cause ‘works well with a team’ or ‘can explain a down month to a client’ is about to be replaced by an LLM. Bullshit. Nothing to see here.
Finally, we’re gonna depricate C cuz random people who were surveyed said so.
This is why I just focus on Rocket League now.
lol. If the overlords want to hasten their overthrow, then sure.
I can’t think of a more likely scenario that puts the rich onto dinner plates.
