Qualification:

No, seriously, it’s just awful. I’m starting to worry that I’ll end up homeless or working in low-paying jobs like mining, if, of course, such jobs still exist and aren’t taken by other people. Maybe I should move to a more or less decent village, where at least I’ll have the opportunity to grow my own food and get water from a well?

But I saw that life in the villages is very hard, and I’m not ready to work from morning until late at night without days off.

The year 2027 scares me a lot.

    There is no way to know what paths will be left available once LLM integration starts to prove effective or in what roles. History shows very clearly that the powerful do not care if the peasantry suffers and dies because of the changes they force on the world. They care primarily, and often exclusively, for their own ambitions.

    If we are unnecessary for those ambitions, our welfare is not considered at all. Our only value to them has been our labour and without that value we are all under threat of being denied access to any resources at all, including those necessary to stay alive, including the resource of physical space, which land ownership allows them to deny us.
