That would be a good time to leave and work for a company that does no evil
Like who? There aren’t many jobs around, let alone jobs in this field for companies that aren’t evil
Yeah, got headhunted for 10 replace-doctors-with-AI startup for every 1 ed-tech company that even looked at my resume, and the company I’m at now, though good on paper, is squeezing AI into every nook and cranny as fast as they can while sidelining security concerns.

I got laid off by one of these big tech corporations and replaced by AI (in my opinion, they denied this). It couldn’t have come at a better time because I was past the point where my ethics were allowing me to continue. Let someone else build, sell, and support the framework of global oppression. I wouldn’t mind doing some Linux work (20+ years of Linux use, minor coding experience, some devops type stuff, but mostly support/sales). For now, I’m focused on my family and I might teach some dance in the meantime. Gotta dance while the world is burning; how else do I stay positive?
