A lot of experts are predicting the singularity to happen in 2 decades and some much less. That seems like our future to me.

Well, yeah. Capitalism sucks, obviously. But what are the alternatives? Don't you want the best chance possible of making it through this climate?

This seems like good advice, especially the first 2 lines.
One question, though. Why tech? Won't most tech related jobs not directly related to advancing AI start to lose value in the future?
Even if these jobs are secure purely through your connections, I imagine they'll become obsolete eventually.

How would that work? Wouldn't whoever is paying you just cut out the middleman and hire the computer?

Trades do seem very stable. But is it wise to stay a working class citizen as the wealth gap widens like never before thanks to tech advancements?
Though I guess most people don't have a choice.

Trades does seem the way to go if you want a stable job. The only other profession I could think of is performer. I don't see people preferring robot bands on stage rather than human ones any time soon.

Yeah, but that would take decades I imagine. I'm wondering what we should do in the mean time.

What I meant was I feel like most of those type of jobs don't have much room for financial growth unless you start a business or something.
