And so I am expecting there probably will be more companies following suit.
And there are a lot of companies that are racing to implement AI now and they're often they don't know how to do it.
But I think it's almost becoming a competition internally in a lot of companies to say who can do it fastest.
And if you can be
guiding them along the way or seen as the expert, then you're going to do much better and be much less likely to get laid off.
If these things do happen because they're going to say, Oh yeah, you know, this guy's really good at it.
I, I've tried to do that in my company.
I mean, I, I've, you know, just did a project that was doing agentic AI and, and I am trying to leverage that as much as I can reputationally to say, Oh, you know, he, he really understands this stuff.
He knows us better than anybody.
And yeah,
So I'm looking to do more of that.
I'm looking for more projects in that space.
And I'm also kind of setting the narrative even in other projects I've done where there have been elements of AI involved to just say, I did this AI thing, I did this other AI thing, and now I have this whole track record of being an AI expert.
And I think that gives me a lot more job security.
And I've already noticed that I've been successful with several people that are higher up than me, recognizing that I have technical expertise with AI that they don't have.
And so I think they would be the first to jump in and protect me.
Just because they're like, oh, yeah, he's one of our best people with that.
And so I think there's a lot of companies that don't know at all what they're doing with AI.
And if you can develop some expertise, now is the time because you can get ahead of everybody else and become that expert that...
can help your company do it, and hopefully that means you'll survive whatever cuts are coming.
