Why is learning to code proposed as a go to solution to technological unemployment? It’s fucking hard and its ridiculously saturated at entry level.

Because people are idiots. We still need nurses, doctors, police officers, military personnel, engineers, wood workers, drivers, mechanics and clerks. Building and programming robots and simulators is fun and all, but you kinda need that creative mind there. Just like being an artist, it’s a calling more than anything else. People should do what they like.

Because coding is a growing job market with lower entry barrier compared to other similarly paying white collar jobs.

Although it's so oversaturated with wannabes now that competition for entry level positions is immense. If really you have brains to switch to an IT job then there are way more "blue collar" options that pay more and are easier to get into.

All of those jobs can, and will, be automated.
Learn to code.

>its hard
Exactly
>saturated at any level
normies say they are "programmers" but they are simply copying youtube tutorials or doing freecodecamp. 80-90% of them will get filtered eventually and go back to working as a waitress or a cashier because their brain cant function without watching a tiktok tutorial.

i'm too retarded to learn how to code, in fact I'm too retarded to do a lot of jobs. It's even worse when you know that the job market will get oversaturated with midwits who think that they know how to code.

Not in your lifetime.

Indeed. I saw many entry level IT "specialists" fail to comprehend simple written step-by-step instructions because they were in a form of a long text without pictures instead of 1-10 minute video.

kek we're already moving away from driver automation because of the absolute shit show the waste of data the project was. Notice that the talk of superior AI has already began to diminish? The only thing on that list that can be fully replaced in the next 10 years are clerks. Until an AI program can finally fully solve a 1500 year old game, I don't think you have anything to worry about with your job becoming autonomated

Stuff like carpentry and plumbing is relatively easy and well-paid in 1st world countries compared to IT jobs.

Accounting has tried automation and failed already.
A machine won't be able to tell you if a million dollars missing is substantial or not, yet alone assess what a warehouse and car are worth in 5 years.
Its all judgment and best guesses.
But sure trust elon musk's ai with your money and assets.

I work in automation, I was going to make you understand the dependency stack, however instead I have a simple question for you.

Have you ever had a robot vacuum smear dog shit all over your carpet?

The dumbest woman I ever met worked as a bank teller and now sells homes, so I am sure you can find something that isn't a soul sucking job. Some factories pay very well, if you can stomach knowing that everyone else there probably is there for life.

The issue is not job being automated but many jobs' efficiency is benefitting a lot from having basic ability to code (as in high level scripts at least). From the top of my head - scientists, accountants, analysts.

You're fundamentally wrong on all counts. Not to mention if we reach a point where zones are fully automated the accident rate drops to nearly zero.

The biggest roadblock is VCs who answer to bigger people and effectively central banks preventing capitalization of companies that could bring 'job killing tech' to market. Its been a political issue rather than a technical one for about 4 full years now.

Almost anything you can think of short of service, things like cosmetology and some hospitality can, and has been, successfully automated.

It kills professions too. Ensembles that simulate law suits and handle objections with precedent and case law. On demand JIT manufacturing of feeders and other production components. Food. Tax burden reduction. You name it.

Those are both jobs known for employing monkeys in lipstick tho

Don't confuse job being automated and "job being fully replaced by machines". An accountant that can write basic script is worth several accountants who cannot.

I can type like 75 WPM what job can I get with this "skill"

Good advice, carpentry and plumbing is pretty straight forward, I ended up pursuing auto mechanics in trade school instead and it was a bit too challenging for me. Not to mention that in North America trades only pay well in the states. Probably gonna stick to a driving job for the future because it's the only thing I can't fuck up at work kek.

thanks friend, a shame that i'm not outgoing and good at socializing like most women at desk jobs but those good jobs are definitely out there

>just get a job
nah

Learn to grow food, code is useless when the electricity goes down.

Try farming without a tractor.
