I just happen to spend 40 hours of my life working a week and would like to enjoy as much of it as possible. Not doing so not only drains joy from a massive portion of my limited time on this Earth, but makes it harder to utilize the time I have available if all my energy is drained.

It would also be nice to have work readily available related to the field I've been building skills in for over a decade that I know isn't going to disappear suddenly. Prompt engineering is already dead. I suspect any skills you learn now to utilize AI is not going to last more than a few years.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills a little when it comes to this subject. Maybe everyone else already has ridiculous money saved, or has other things lined up, or are just ready to move into a Monastery. But for those of us in the middle of our careers and with no AI-proof capabilities the future is at the very least uncertain.
