This whole conversation is depressing me. when I left work a couple years ago due to health reasons, AI was just beginning to become a problem. Now, thanks to a clinical study, I may possibly be able to return to work, and it sounds like the industry has changed drastically.

Not looking forward to it.

It hasn’t. Most businesses have continued operating the way they have for years.

SV Startup hiring is the most trendy and not representative.

I think that the effects at the moment are highly exaggerated in the tech media than the reality on the ground.

How long that will remain true is a very open question, where different folks have widely differing timelines on when they expect AI to have highly meaningful impacts.
