You have the privilege to keep yourself sharp, most businesses favor productivity over their workers' long term relevancy.

This is the thing that makes me saddest. Second to the fact that none of the management tier promoting and weaponising this insanity will meaningfully suffer consequences.

Right now I am lucky that I have the time to recover and learn.

Nothing new under the sun though. It's the barista-brication of the tech field. No crafting skills, to make anyone replaceable.

We saw it before AI. See ServiceNow university, teaching tailored abilities to run as technical consultant, for ServiceNow. That way good luck transitioning.

That's just business owners and C-suite pocketing the difference while they fire staff and replacing it with AI. At some point somebody would have to start asking "business" some tough questions.

They are firing artisans for cheaper labor who just use AI. They aren't replacing people with AI that's a fallacy.
