hello soyim
just wondering what your thoughts are on education as an investment? what degrees are you interested in pursuing and what is dying? willing to provide my own advice.
also related is that unlike how the chart (picrel) may show, a harvard study which will be published in the next two weeks show that the primary exposure is to entry level positions, with no real effects on mid and upper level positions.
so how will you guarantee a job in an economy that has almost a million fewer jobs added this year than last?

Connections are better

Anything not related to handling people is not going away, automation will creep on niches, but not generalize

Connections will get you jobs anywhere if the HR lady isn't a bitch, managers will never go away because they're all buddies who would never fire each other

i agree. as a whole more expensive schools are worth it because you meet higher net worth individuals who will get you employed, even if you're a weirdo you will meet them in clubs or just out and about.
the other side of it is that certain schools carry weight when applying to graduate schools (md, law, mba), and check the boxes
my friend explained it to me from the perspective of an hr / hiring manager, and you will never get fucked hiring a dude from Harvard who fucks up, because he's from Harvard, whereas taking a risk on a kid from noname state will reflect harsher on you if he messes up
>Anything not related to handling people is not going away, automation will creep on niches, but not generalize
i agree, if for no other reason than a nation needs to keep a working population for defense

I meant to say anything related to handling people is not going away

That's literally the only reason those schools exist, it's just for rich kids to make connections with other rich kids

This can be automated too and is already underway, we'll see remote combat jobs in the next 15 years

i agree, im a lawfag and ev&doe CLI's can be replaced with chatgpt, it won't happen because it allows exposure to

 â„–15352[Quote]

idk why it posted early, exposure to not only situations but people, and to sus out if you are capable to do the work outside of just legal research.
not to mention, the legal research itself (and the act of doing it) is necessary to train people for the parts chatgpt cannot do (if only because its a way of thinking)

A lot of legal research is still barred behind very high paywalls and lots of oral knowledge, things a computer has no access to, half of law in common law countries is also putting an act on to give emotional appeals to judges and other parties to give more validity to what you say, something else a machine cannot do

i agree, im just making the point automation which seems plausible will not occur because it allows junior level positions to be created and people who may go further in that field into positions which LLMs and AI cannot do typically in positions they could, which makes the view of AI exposure silly imo
although, you can see in this study that ill post here when its published it is primarily these lower level positions that are being lost (or really just not created after vacancies), and the effects of this will be interesting to see in those industries

 â„–15356[Quote]

>>15355
Because they're trying to kill their senior talent (who are extremely expensive in upkeep), the main thing these AI companies want is to remove senior developers, but they can't do that, so they're using it to kill the juniors and making the seniors clean the mistakes that LLMs are making in the code, which is proving effective

also cheat codes for young soys who are applying to colleges …
you can TRANSFER (and transfer acceptance rates are MUCH MUCH higher than they are normal admission) … so if you get into a bad school or have a terrible high school GPA, just do well your first year and transfer
^ also some state schools (like UCLA) have guaranteed admission for students from local community colleges that achieve a certain GPA (3.3+ usually)
another easy cheat code if you cant afford college is the military (dont die for israel) buttttt you can get a cushy job working on a computer (like 35N in the army) and get stationed working with the NSA, get security clearance (worth 6 figures in the real world) and just ball
if you wanna be isolated and work temporarily, do petroleum engineering somewhere in alaska, it has a high acceptance rate in Univ Alaska Fairbanks and guarantees a six figure salary
always work when you can, part time shit is easy and pads resumes

so do you think itll just kill the entire section until the seniors leave then just have a few maintainers? or do you see this kind of thing failing and companies abandoning this

 â„–15359[Quote]

>>15358
>so do you think itll just kill the entire section until the seniors leave then just have a few maintainers
This is the most likely scenario, the problem is that the seniors know where everything is and it goes back to the oral history bit with law, a machine will have no idea where this particular line is in millions of lines of code that everything depends on, but a human will

>you can TRANSFER
Also this, a lot of people fuck themselves over when they have to pay for SNCA classes that are much cheaper everywhere else

i can see it. itll just be hard for a lot of colleges and recent grads, but they can switcheroo. i also could see the government requiring a certain amount of the tech sector remains employed, or a further crackdown on H1Bs which would accelerate the replacement of easily automated positions not requiring advanced degrees
>>15361
seriously, and you can get into a much better school if you didnt really care at 15 lol
