Michael Greger (🧐) either do something extremely hard and immerse yourself in it (e.g. be willing to compete with azns at electrical or mechanical engineering programs), healthcare (infinite demand for nurses, PAs, etc. as the population pyramid becomes increasingly fucked), or a meatspace trade. the days of "getting an MBA" and the like, just being a run of the mill coder, etc. are done (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5833616&forum_id=2],#49663074) |

no different than how you'll still need lawyers and bankers for m&a, that's not going away
hell, you'll still need lawyers for your divorce
you'll still want an accountant to do your business taxes
can you explain how medicine is materially different than these other industries? in fact, medicine, unlike those industries has been gutted by private equity and ever lower insurance payouts for treatments, that's only going to get worse no?

Date: February 11th, 2026 1:46 PM Author: gunneratttt gives free BJs to brocolli haired zoom (gunneratttt) ama protects med jobs even more than the aba, boomers are aging, people are much more likely to accept legal and accounting work done by a robot than their medical care. healthcare is already the fastest growing field in the us. legal and accounting work is largely optional and something the vast majority of people will never hire a profesdional for, medicine isn't. medicine is second only to food scarcity that the government will not allow people to go without. medicine never had an ITE whereas white collar work does every recession.

Date: February 11th, 2026 1:50 PM Author: Paralegal Mohammad (Death, death to the IDF!) lol the purpose of "healthcare" isn't to provide you healthcare, it's an insurance racket through and through, you can scarcely get any care even now and if you think they aren't about to shove 90%+ of cases into telehealth and virtual docs in foreign countries aided by auto generated auto translated AI summaries I don't know what to tell you. that's an incredibly naive view of medicine (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5833616&forum_id=2],#49663434) |

Date: February 11th, 2026 1:52 PM Author: Rainier Wolfcastle doctors unanimously say that practice has gotten considerably worse over the last few decades and patients are nearly as consistent in their opinion that service has suffered the same fate. look at how the ama has overseen drastically diluted quality with the shoehorning of p.a. and n.p. filters at every step of the process, and imagine what that same trend will look like when those idiots are armed with the latest DiagnostIQ (tm) ai tool.

|
Date: February 11th, 2026 2:52 PM Author: Rainier Wolfcastle as in the practice of the profession getting worse? i would agree that’s happened across the board but it’s certainly arguable that the decline has been steeper in medicine.
as in the customer experience getting worse? i don’t think that’s the case in law, banking, accounting, consulting, etc.
as in the industry being substantially restructured due to the licensure of a paraprofessional class of service providers? that is unique to medicine. |

Date: February 11th, 2026 1:44 PM Author: Rainier Wolfcastle why? i would strongly prefer my sons be trade workers as opposed to male nurses. surgeon would be better than trade worker, sure, but there are probably 25x+ more openings for the latter and effectively no barriers to entry.

Date: February 11th, 2026 11:57 AM Author: .....;;,,.........;.;.;.;.,;,;,;.;.;,; This is one theory and not a basket worthy of all their eggs, but I think media and production of short form audio/visual content is a reasonable bet and something you don’t have to go to college to do. Ie the market demand will increasingly put a premium on talents that make it legible and reasonably obvious for most viewers that a work was made by real humans as opposed to AI. Eventually companies (maybe/likely completely different ones than our 100+ year old set of media oligarchs) will figure out how to monetize and productize those talents. Ie there will be a large market for media products that comfort humans with the idea that some aspects of the human experience are unreachable by the computers.

Go into a field that involves some sort of physical element. The kid doesn't need to do physical labor, but a field where there is a real physical element to the work. Moving goods, distributing goods (non-commodity), manufacturing.
Preftige fields like finance and law will only get worse as time goes on (and they are already pretty bad and overstocked with strivers.) |

Figure out the best way to use ai to do whatever task you want to do in life.
Meet people actually doing stuff you want to do, figure out how use ai to automate the things they find annoying.
Credentials are mostly done, don’t waste your time with that shit, actually meet people and figure out ways to help them with real life stuff.
Be resourceful, be persistent.
No job or industry is safe, nearly any path is far more accessible though.
