I’m sorry for your job loss. It always sucks! If I can perhaps give you some encouragement by saying it may not be as bad as it could be. If you just consider the internet and the jobs it created that never existed or could be imagined, you may find a path within AI to utilize your skills. If you were let go as a side effect of AI you are in the very first wave so you have a head start in a new paradigm that includes AI. Think beyond fitting it into life today, what will business even look like, what will we value, will we buy books if we can just ask an app to write one, same with movies. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Back to the internet…bloggers, self publishing, podcasts, SEO, affiliates, influencers, and so on we’re not jobs in the mid 90s. There was no Etsy or EBay to offload your stuff. Since the Industrial Revolution we have more people and more jobs, very different jobs but jobs nonetheless. This time it’s hitting writers instead of miners.

ChatGPT is impressive and we should see exponential advances in AI, but adoption rates are slower than you think and scaling anything out to the masses always exposes weaknesses. Workflows are being disrupted, disruption creates opportunity.

Good luck 🍀try and stay positive
