Privatization of wildlife? Point creep? AI: “Hold my beer”

It definitely will replace some folks in my field but at the same time it will probably create better paying jobs for guys to maintain and program the same stuff. Which we are working on staying on top of.

Some are missing that skilled trade is a supply and demand labor. Demand is likely to go down dramatically.
Using an electrician as an example.
How many of your clients could potentially loose their income? If you are an industrial electrician. How many of the client's clients could loose their income?
People cant spend money they don't have even if the lites go out. The big money is very concentrated at the top. Every one else is living on thin margins already.

There is a lot of AI showing up in farming from milking cows to running tractors to plant fields. The farmer heavy labor is certainly decreasing

Dairy robots are definitely becoming the norm.

Cocaine, strippers, decaffeinated coffee, Police Detectives, college educated Formans, & Friend of the Court have all tried to take out framing crews. Yet they still show up most every morning hung over with a fresh pack of camels in last nights clothes. AI won’t stand a chance.

That is not AI....that is called automation and it's been there for years already....

I think enterprising people that are willing to attempt stuff themselves have already been using the Internet for such things. They’re just gonna get better at it. People who aren’t using the Internet to do that already aren’t going to use AI to do it.

I didn’t attempt much of anything until I was in my late 20’s. At 30 (2014) I started taking things on and failed a lot. I got help and advice from coworkers and family. By 35 I was harnessing more than half of my information online: Reddit, hobby and trade forums, and digital DIY articles. Between 2021-2025 there was an explosion of DIY YouTube videos, making projects far easier. Now a chatbot watches all the videos for me and halves the learning curve.

DIY’ers are a fraction of the population, but it continues to grow (think FSBO realty), and the range and complexity of their projects is ballooning. Many large online parts and project supply retailers now offer DIY kits w/ layperson instructions, whereas 8-10 years ago this was nearly nonexistent. Still, no observable dent in the labor economy from it yet that I am aware of.
