I know CS is super competitive right now but with AI, a lot of tech jobs will be obliterated. Honestly, I don’t know how to guide my kids in terms of college majors. I feel like unless you are at the tip top, life will suck.

I’ve been in the AI space for ten years, for context. And I think the people who think these are going to displace many whole professions are delusional.
There are a few professions I think may be more vulnerable. But anyone who says most white collar jobs are going away is just repeating a bunch of industry hype.
Compare what happened in the AI space in the past 10 years and what happened in that space in the past 10 weeks? AI is advancing at lightning speed in case you were not paying attention last week.
Do you really think large language models were unknown to us before chat GPT hit the popular consciousness?

We make the mistake of assuming that technology movements are linear. But it seldom is. Many of these prediction may come true in 20 years. But by then, we will have a whole new set of opportunities to chase. Human innovation never stops.
