AI obsolescence is “coming for basically everyone in due time,” says one engineer who went from earning $150k to being locked out of the workforce for over a year.
I’m sorry, but I can’t sympathize with normal people with normal salaries that choose to live in the most expensive cities in the world, and then discover that they can’t afford shit, especially when they find themselves out of a job.
Move out, find towns that are affordable, go work for employers that embrace remote work, get a normal salary, and enjoy a low cost-of-living.
It is 2025. The job market is global and remote work is now. If you’re relying on salary to be magically tied to where you live, then you obviously don’t know how capitalism works.
Have you not noticed the massive numbers of people being laid off right now in all sorts of industries?
Remote jobs are not easy to find right now. Employers are being very picky, and they can be when they get 100 applicants a day for a position. This is not the easy solution you make it out to be.
Then don’t live there.
