[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s been a national shortage of non-computer based jobs for years. I think it’s wonderful that trades will (hopefully) have a renaissance due to AI and the ability to command higher incomes. Already, many Gen Z and Millennials are electively leaving 9-5s for the flexibility that being independent (albeit largely still computer based) work allows to be more present parents, spouses, and polymaths pursuing passion interests and taking care of themselves. [b]Hoping nursing, teaching, and other roles - including mental health professionals [/b]- will too. AI mostly scares me, but this will be a silver lining. This will be a difficult transition for the next 10 years, for sure, but we and our kids will adapt. [/quote] None of these pay enough to be able to afford housing, health insurance, food etc.[/quote]
