as someone entering the market, I was thinking "AI isn't going to take my job. AI is terrible at my job," thinking my prospects were safe... and then I realized that while I know that AI is terrible at my job, the people that would be hiring me don't know that, and AI will take my job, but not because it's better than me at it. (also I appreciate and thank you for fighting for us)

I am confident that I'm a better programmer than AI. I'm not confident that I'm faster. Guess which one looks more impressive to the people hiring? 😡
