How deeply has AI affected the field you're working in?
I work in molecular bio and i occasionally use it with genomics and troubleshooting, but not much more than that. I hear some promising stuff from protein folding but i'm not sure how much of it is hype.

I'm studying in mining engineering and Asian/Indian students are just using it to cheat and learn nothing.
The other place I've worked is pesticide making, and AI has exactly zero effect on my job there. Hell, the only reason we even had a computer at the working end of the production plant was to use the label printer.

This is the biggest problem there is. AI will make it so extremely easy for kids and students to take shortcuts and stop thinking for themselves. If you think Zoomers are bad because of covid, better buckle up.

Consultant here, we see huge impact already, zero juniors are hired, clients demand a cut of the savings we make, and a large fraction of what we do will be automated.

I legally changed my last name to Bergman, so I haven't had any issues with obtaining employment despite the AI boom.

i'm in biomedical research. it knows really a lot about genes and can save some time summarizing the literature and preparing the manuscripts. it can't do big-picture conceptual stuff, but it's getting there

The only reason "lab technician" is still a job is because LLMs don't have hands.

There is a bloodbath and HR can't tell the difference between frauds and cornerstones. Networking with the right people has never being more important.

AI looks like *that*?

What genuine cornerstones are there?

The quiet, the calm, and the competent. This group was crucial in winning the space race but always had problems with modern HR.
