Saw that at CES in the transportation technology hall

Some of the self driving taxis with side doors that slide apart were some of the coolest tech I liked.

I talked with one of the best AI guru's in the world yesterday. We worked together to set up the military's first AI environment in 2010. He called because his bosses wanted to see if I wanted in on a massive AI project in retail banking since I had set up the first cloud at Bank of America. But, my memory issues are going to keep me retired. You need 100% of your functioning brain and memory to do those jobs.

When's the downside of AI coming? He said:

• He thinks in the next 3-4 years, the USA will lose 5% of our jobs.
  He thinks in the next 5-6 years, the USA will lose 10% of our jobs.
  He thinks in the next 10 years, the USA will lose 25% of our jobs.
  Thinks we will have to have the government give every citizen some level of minimum money to stave off riots and starvation.

He got caught hacking by someone else turning him in to get themself off. Looking at a 25 year sentence. He took a deal to work for the military for 10 years in which he got paid very well by the military.

He had to do whatever they wanted, in any location in the world, plus good work reviews or the 25 years will be served. Worked with about 5-6 of those techs forced to work with the military. All of them were some of the smartest humans I ever met in my 66 years on this earth.

I have a theory that all the English majors who STEM peeps like myself have made fun of may take over due to how AI is engaged.

Any thoughts on that from the 40yol tech guys? Or anyone?

Sure. Almost every AI guru I’ve worked alongside with either had no interest in other fields of IT because they knew AI would last them through retirement. They just need to keep up with advances in the field. A full-time job these days.

Most of the jobs will be coding AI but there will still be plenty of high paying jobs like Cloud Architect and networking to get the AI feed in and out without compromise results of bots going into the data lake. Yes, English majors are working in tech. And other languages. Those that can make queries more succinct but still get the data volume of returns they are seeking will be well payed.

Or getting the AI bots out to its learning targets and back in with their results without picking something up in the wild. All that is making sure the bots are in a standard security group so they can get easily flagged upon returning home if something is flagged.

Thank you BRC.

I truly believe we're about to go through a slow burn paradigm shift over the next 5 years. As in industrial revolution part duex x100.
