I think its pretty clear that in the coming decade intelligence and cognitive labor is going to become very cheap. So your kid should develop some skills outside of that to stay competitive in the job market.

general intelligence will become cheap? and so your suggestion is to develop skills outside of skills?
Personally i think markets will be so different from now that this question of where you'll have skills for jobs is less important than asking what will a job mean in 2040. But ok, maybe this is still a minority opinion.
I think it's pretty clear that cognitive labor will become even higher value in the future, as our tools get better and allow us to become more productive.
You speak the truth but people here will hate you for it.
Any suggestions?
