Skinny Pancake. Really good by airport food standards.

It's a job that likely entails a lot of driving around their community, so it's a little relevant. They may be driving this road at different times of day as well. That probably makes a good sample of experiences from which to draw their conclusions.

Thank you, I had no idea who this person is, or why anybody should care about this rather [meaningless] twitter post. He's got some interesting posts on that blog.

then, by the end of the 5-10 minute checklist, did you restart your computer, did you update the app, did you try a different browser, did you try in 'private' mode to ensure no cookie conflicts, etc the non-english as their first language support will be out of ideas and pass you off to another support person only to repeat the process.
- my experience with comcast/xfinity customer support
I honestly can't wait for this to be replaced by a gpt model.

I think it's more important to consider/evaluate your inherent strengths and find the jobs that require them. Don't consider what will be around the longest.
There are very few occupations that will be wholly replaced by AI in our lifetimes. Instead, start learning how ai will/can allow you to do your tasks better. When you graduate and hit the workforce, you'll be able to outcompete your peers with the help of the AI.

If 90% of your job becomes automated via ai, you'll be able to handle 10x the number of jobs. That implies that there will be 1/10 the number of available positions for accountants. That's a big assumption. Perhaps there will be an accompanying boom in the economy that increases the need for accountants 10 fold. That seems optimistic, however. There are other limiting factors to economic growth that AI can't foreseeably overcome until ASI.
In the labor market, you'll be competing for fewer positions against a lot of other accountants. Salaries will decrease. Eventually, there will be fewer people becoming accountants. That isn't particularly helpful for you though. Those changes in the supply of accountants will take decades. The changes in the demand for accountants will not take nearly that long.
Look for competitive advantages that will ensure you can still get a job. Knowing how to effectively use AI for your job seems like an obvious one. Specializing in a very niche area of accounting may provide another as that specific knowledge base will need to be coupled with the more generalized abilities of AGI.

to add to the good list already provided:
disc golf, fishing, swimming (in the summer, there are nice lakes for it here), hunting in the fall (deer, ducks) are also very popular

Montreal is even closer than Boston.
