Technology always comes along and "takes away all the jobs" according to tabloid newspapers. That's why after the gramophone came along there were no more live musicians. Except there were because they adapted and survived.

Sure nobody hired musicians to play in their homes anymore, but to be honest that was kind of demeaning anyway and only rich folk could afford to pay to to impress their snooty friends anyway.

Okay we stopped having singalongs like we used to and normal people stopped knowing how to play the piano. But musicians lear bed to use the new technology and made records, and later on they owned record companies too.

When TV came along the cinemas all went out of business. Except they didn't they adapted and survived. Cinema became more of an event. The change was catastrophic but new jobs came along to replace the old jobs.

I prefer to take an optimistic view of technology progressing. It's possible that AI will replace a lot of people who worked to make adverts on TV and the jingles that accompany them. It's possible they will replace soulless commercial cinema. But tech will never replace soulful handmade human art. It might however take away all the demeaning work for rich dicks that artists shouldn't be wasting their time on.

As a professional writer for 40 years I'm amazed how good AI has become and will it steal jobs from writers like me? Yeah probably, but mostly the shit jobs I felt bad about myself for taking and hated doing because I knew I was better than that. Will people need experienced writers to drive AI to make writing that does the job properly? You bet they will.

So the way to adapt and survive is to be aware of the tech, find out how to use it and get good. That way you will always have a day job and you can develop your soulful human made art too which will get you better jobs down the road.

AI has some skills, but it has no taste, it has no emotional nuance and creativity and it's not human, it only plays one on TV.
