What common types of personal struggle does Johnny introduce at the episode’s start?
All righty. Welcome to another episode on the unlearned wisdom podcast with yours truly where each episode is a gospel centered lesson that you could apply to your life today. And today we're actually talking about struggle. A lot of us struggle with things, um, whether it's relationships, whether it's internal thoughts, uh, whether it's just struggling with the idea of struggle. Right. And, and what I mean by that is a lot of people think like, man, I'm angry that I'm angry. I'm mad that I'm mad. And I don't want to be that way. So struggling because you struggle or even struggling because you don't struggle. Some of you guys struggle with the fact that you don't have any real struggles and you're like, why am I getting so blessed?
Right. So we're going to actually address all of these things today. It's going to be a good episode, guys. All righty.
So I had a question before all the other questions. In your guys's opinion, what do you think is the most valuable skill to have in like the next five years? Like an obvious one could be like, oh, HVAC because AI centers, data center, like electrician, like that's actually super valuable because they're always going to need welders or whatever it is. I'm going to be biased. Of course.
Project management. Yeah. We need some project managers. No, I think really, though, like, yeah, probably anything to do with AI or technology and specifically the stuff that's like booming, right? Like AI is going to be nuts. So anybody who's like engineering the back end of that stuff or tweaking it, I think is going to be crazy.
Hard to say. I've got one, obviously. I feel like you've got one ready to fire off.
You have to say yours, Aaron.
I don't know. I want to say that it'll be people like entertainers and the people that keep humanity alive by making art. I want to say that. I want to say the gesture maxers will stay employed for the next five years, but Honestly, I don't think so. I think they will. I see all these AI influencers now and all these different things. That's one of the easiest things to get rid of. Not that they'll be able to do it successfully, but it's like, I don't know. I really don't know what will survive the apocalypse.
I thought his answer was way better than yours. And I'm honestly very disappointed in your answer. I didn't even have an answer. I don't know. I know, but it's very disappointing that you don't even have a viewpoint on this.
I don't think electricians will stay there and welders.
What skills do they say will be most valuable in the next five years (AI, content, live shopping)?
That's the first thing that robots will do. They already have manless factories, welding and electric.
No, you still need to be able to man the robot and tell it what to do. And like, like they're going to use robots, but it's still going to be very hard of like, Hey, I'm,
Physical labor activities are going to go out the window. It'll be improved. Those robots are doing backflips now. What do you mean? It's going to walk up, find the crack in the wall, weld it, and then backflip away. And then hit the gritty and walk away.
But I'm still disappointed in you. Because I think that one of the most valuable skills that you can have in the new age is how to make good content. You don't have to physically... You're rolling your eyes, but let me finish.
No, that's kind of what you said in terms of entertainment, right? It kind of ties into that, doesn't it?
No, he wasn't thinking that. I was trying to help him out. You're right, dude. Thanks. Johnny's right.
I'm like, how are you feeling? Thank you, dude. He was rolling his eyes as I was saying it.
No, it wasn't an eye roll. It was an oof.
But okay, I'm hearing you out.
Okay, so listen.
So first of all, one of the fastest growing industries or like what they're figuring out is that like AI content still does not grab a human like a video of their face, right? Yet. Yeah, yeah, sure. So that's one angle. Live shopping is huge. Live shopping is exploding. What is live shopping? It's literally on TikTok selling things like QVC. Oh, I always see that. Amazon is making a huge push towards it. TikTok is already making a huge push towards it.
