Which career path is not ruined by AI? - Lemmy.zip

I’m kind of sick of being a dev. I hate AI with a passion. I hate the hallucinations, I hate slop, I hate megacrops, I hate the environmental impacts, I hate the massive costs. I could go on but you get the picture. At work I often times have to review vibe code slop from people who clock in 9 to 5 and don’t give a fuck (I respect that, I just wish your fucking code wasn’t slop) I’m sick of it, I’m sick of hearing about AI tooling or new models or bro agentic actions bro based on your documentation bro. I want to switch careers, so which career is not ruined by AI?

Working in the trades is probably somewhat safe for a while.

Honestly I’d just go for something that you’re interested in. If AI displaces a ton of white collar workers, the system will probably collapse and we’ll all go mad max. In the meantime have fun!

I work in fiber installation. I already have to deal with an ai copilot micromanaging me all day. Unless you are self employed, I doubt there’s going to be any choice.
