in the immediate term, you probably want to go on those rising things, really crucially important things for a while.
And then later you could switch to one of these relational jobs.
But there is a bit of difference in the social impact perspective as the personal perspective, because from a social impact perspective, you mostly just care about this transition and helping that go well.
And then if we make it through AGI then
Well, then we can chill, hopefully, because we've like done our part in history.
I mean, to be honest, I'm not sure even from a personal point of view, it's that important to think like, okay, what could I do that would like, will still not be automated even in 40 years?
time because if if there's been an AIX risk then that won't happen so you don't need to worry about it and then if there hasn't been probably we will be in like some type of like society of that's like a hundred times or a thousand times richer than today and your like your material needs will be taken care of assuming someone sorted out the inequality thing which is
Well, even if like there is increasing inequality, like imagine if the world was a hundred times wealthier, but the billionaires get a thousand times wealthier.
So they're now like trillionaires.
But like an ordinary person is still a hundred times richer.
Like that might, that, like it has to be pretty bad for people to be say like actually worse off than now.
Like you'd have to have an inequality increase hugely and there to be like no, no redistribution at all.
I like to focus on the skills because jobs are kind of like involve many different skills.
So it's, that's like adds an extra layer of complexity.
But yeah, and we've touched on many of the factors already.
So the skills that will most increase in value due to AI would be things that are hard to automate.
So like hard to get that last, the last bit done.
Secondly, a complimentary to AI.
So I use the example of AI,
AI engineers, if you're still doing the things that are the key remaining bottlenecks, those increase in value.
