I graduated in 2023 and half the internships I applied to were already being automated. It's not a future problem — it's happening right now.

Проблема не в ШІ, а в тому, що університети досі навчають так, ніби на дворі 2005 рік. ШІ просто прискорив кризу освіти.

In India the pressure is insane. 1.5 million engineering graduates per year and now AI can do half of what we were trained for. Yes, it's a threat.

Я вчуся на програміста і вже зараз бачу як джуніор позиції зникають. Але я думаю що ті хто вміє працювати з ШІ — виграють.

Biggest threat? No. The biggest threat is that education systems teach you to compete with AI instead of use it. Completely wrong approach.

ИИ — это просто новый инструмент. Люди боялись калькуляторов, потом интернета. Те, кто адаптируется — выживут. Паниковать не стоит.

The entry-level jobs are disappearing faster than new ones are being created. That's the core problem nobody wants to admit.

In Africa we're worried about AI replacing outsourcing jobs. That was the ladder for millions to enter the global economy. What replaces it?

Hot take: AI isn't the threat. The companies using AI to justify not paying living wages — that's the threat.

South Korea has one of the most competitive job markets already. AI just added another layer of pressure on top of an already broken system.

Everyone forgets that the industrial revolution destroyed jobs too — and created 10x more. AI will be the same. Just painful in the transition.

The global south doesn't have the safety nets that Europe has. When AI disrupts jobs here, there's no welfare state to catch you.
