10 Survival Skills in an AI-Controlled Society

Why don't they teach these in college?

You want to hear a horror story? Forget vampires and werewolves. Instead talk to a young person about their job search. That’s scarier than a month of Halloweens.

A college degree is no better than a lottery ticket. A very expensive lottery ticket with long odds stack against you. Even so-called marketable degrees won’t go to the market, and stay home like that unemployed piggy.

Where did all the jobs go? Is AI already replacing entry level openings? Did you study STEM just to get replaced by SLOP?

Listen to the sad young people:

• “I just checked my bank account and found I only have $100 left. Honestly, my hands are shaking as I write this. I’ve sent over 400 applications….My hope is running out.” (Source)

• “I’ve been mass applying to literally everything and I can’t even get first round interviews….The shame I feel is unreal. I didn’t expect it to be this difficult. I don’t know what to do. Please help me.” (Source)

• “I put in 100 applications a day to jobs I am overqualified for!! I still never get an interview or call back! I don’t understand the job market….I’ve been staying with my parents because I haven’t been able to land a job that pays enough for me to live on my own! I’m starting to just give up on life.” (Source)
