Half Of All Skills Will Be Outdated Within Two Years, Study Suggests::AI will redirect jobs and career prospects, but its impact on jobs and tasks is murky.
Executives believe nearly half of the skills that exist in today’s workforce won’t be relevant just two years from now, thanks to artificial intelligence.

Executives are such dumbasses

That is literally all this “study” did. Ask people how many of their skills they think will be obsoleted. This headline is ridiculous.
They’re executives. You can’t convince them their ideas are stupid. At best, you encourage them so they fall on their faces even faster and harder.
And blame everyone around them as usual
LLMs aren’t gonna replace anyone’s jobs anytime soon. Their true power is making people even more productive.
I keep getting told that AI is gonna replace devs. While copilot at work is fucking awesome to use, it’s also created the scenario where AI doesn’t have to compete with devs anymore, it has to compete with devs who can use an AI to automate the easy stuff and do even more impactful work. You can apply this to basically all jobs. So until the LLMs can outperform a human + AI we’re gonna be fine.
Not to mention until an AI can coax out what the fuck anyone even wants us to build in the first place I think we’re safe.

Yeah cause ‘works well with a team’ or ‘can explain a down month to a client’ is about to be replaced by an LLM. Bullshit. Nothing to see here.
Finally, all these years of maintaining no skills pay off.
I think this is a very limited definition of the word “skills”.
And maybe everyone will finally stop calling me to ask one last real quick technology question…
Already preparing to shift from IT to other venues.
Looking forward to goat farming within 20 years. I’m not even joking.
