I might be too much of an optimist but I just don’t buy the permanent underclass thing. I just think no matter how smart AI gets, there’s no way a motivated person will wake up each day and be unable to contribute to society.
One hill I will die on is that (good) video games are good for kids. They look zoned out but they are thinking and exercising their brains a ton.
I hope schools are teaching kids to just sit down with codex / claude code and make stuff.
Surround yourself with friends who randomly spend their time thinking about how you could be more successful, and do the same for them.
It's crazy how high my bar has gotten to do evening work stuff. I really hate missing my kids bedtimes.
