The AI Generative Explosion Has Begun and How to Survive it.

Just for your information this article was written by a human - for humans. Yes we have come that far it needs saying.

The entire world now has access to electricity - even those nations in poverty, as per wikipedia:

The reason that Nicola Tesla (and electricity) is related to AI is electricity is now a way of life - the entire planet uses it. AI will soon become as ubiquitous as electricity is now - and its going to happen very fast!  But do we fully understand all the things that will be automated by it?

Nvidia's Omniverse allows virtual robots to train inside a virtual warehouse.  It is a game changer in simulation environment learning as the robots can develop the most efficient paths and handling methods.

The reason that this is pertinent, is this is about to scale - big:

• Imagine simulating the economic lifecycle of an entire city such as Chicago. Businesses will use these types of simulations to determine if their business will succeed or fail  - before they even expand into the territory.

• Imagine entire battlefields being simulated thousands of times..

• Now imagine engineering and design of future engines and parts. New technology being simulated for higher efficiency, reduced cost, increased performance, and higher durability - all in the AI.

• Imagine virtual relationships with virtual persons - all AI generated.

AI is going to do all of this - and it's going to do it quickly.  Like electricity that turns on my lights by command, AI will also become a useful tool to aid us. It won't be stopped because market forces will require it - they will demand it..

Safe Zones, that AI will Not be Able to Replace (For Now..)

A. Service and Hospitality Industries.

For instance robots serving in a bar is really nice but..

What the public doesn't understand is people really go to a bar for companionship and therapy. They simply want someone to talk to. If they wanted to interact with a vending machine they'd go down to the pop/beer machine and make their purchase that way.

The point of this is that people will go to restaurants, eat-outs, and establishments with their ever increasing social free time because they are looking for the ambiance - the setting itself.  So companies that understand this are going to prosper. Clean, friendly and atmosphere friendly establishments will thrive.

B. Service industries (plumbing, electrician, HVAC, mechanics etc)

Industries that provide a viable and good service such as electricians, plumbers, and mechanics will be very hard to automate. Yes they may have  a virtual assistant that takes books, and sends the invoice, but when the bolt breaks off on the auto-part the robot simply isn't going to know what to do. Nor is it going to know what to do when the wiring plug to a bathroom was done not to code, requiring real troubleshooting by a qualifed electrcian.

C.  The GDP cycle will be protected, or at least recycled. Security jobs will grow tremendously.

Let me explain what that means. Take autonomous truck driving.

So truck drivers are being replaced, but in the end it means a small percentage of those that were layed off are going to see arbitrage opportunity - and start stealing self-driving trucks, or their loads. If you think this is not already happening  it already is:

Study: Cargo Theft on the Rise, Losses Exceed $1 Billion Per Year

A new investigation from CNBC reveals that cargo theft is spiraling out of control – and more sophisticated than ever.

So  guards and their electronic surveillance equipment - will need to be hired back to be guardians of the trucks, as theft skyrockets.  

• Everything will need guarding, parking lots, cars, houses, everything.

Try replacing Brinks Armed Couriers to their Trucks - let me know how that works out for you, grant you - yes cash is being greatly reduced.

Example of this already occurring, one need look at California where theft is so high - self-checkouts are now being removed.

Thus anyone supplying low-cost security services is going to utterly thrive.

D. Heavy Industry will need workers.

Althought historically industrial plant sites have payed lucratively, they have tried to lower their pay down to laborer rates. Inspite of this the construction, maintenance and service of these plants are extremely difficult to automate. Yes welding robots will weld pipe more quickly than the men that used to hand-weld, but someone will still need to strap that bot onto each string of pipe.

E. Software and Systems will Still Need Owners.

Software developers are currently being layed off due to automation, however those that have their name on the title deed of the company will be much more immune.

• That is the key difference. If you own the company you will thrive, if you are an employee you will be scrutinized by management and AI.
• Find your own niche if you can and thrive in it, either that or learn one of the trades listed above.
• Understand that high-tech is not high pay. This is a fatal mistake thinking that just because you have ten years experience, and or six years of engineering you are worth high renumeration. You are not. it should be understood that you might need to work for minimum-wage...

Here is another option.

• In this instance, a 17-year old is making $20,000 a month in sales using guerilla advertising to promote his business. This is key!!

• The key to understand is nobody cares about your 'skills' - they have a product that they like and they don't care how its made wether that be by a office full of Phd's or a cadres of Vietnamese laborers - it is at a price they are willing to pay.
• 1-50 3D printers can be run by 1 person.
• People with lots of free time, are going to be doing lots of shopping, and Amazon and other providers will be there.

F. Arbitrage will see Amazon Types Wiped out.

• Amazon currently charges 70% of a books sales for international sales.
• AI is going to let the smart entrepreneurs build their own book shop brands for pennies, they will sell those same books for cost margins of 1-3% and do so profitably.
• Amazon will be replaced by lower-cost services.

G. Psychological Resonance Providers will Thrive.

• As a kid there was always this undercurrent and vibe to just be wild and reckless. That deep rooted psycholgical loose-cannon of neuropathy has its own market. Guys love watching this stuff. Shock-factor entertainment will be big dollar draws.
• Whistlin Diesel is a perfect case of this, a specialty channel devoted to utterly wrecking things that people hold most dear - like high-end sports cars - where it catches fire in a field and burns up because too much straw got caught in the wheel wells trying to drive through it at 100 mph.

• The point is this type of niche-destructo entertainment now requires an entire crew, months of planning, hundreds of thousands of dollars, and is BIG $$$.
• Key is real creativity, understanding good entertainment, awkward moment comedy, and the attention span of the public. Mr Beast is another example, and has made videos specifically geared to explaining why his videos resonate with the public, it is much more science than anyone realizes.almost no independent peasants, small landed proprietors, or tenants on lease; all lands had finally been absorbed into great estates, belonging to lords or squires.
• A similar concentration had taken place in manufacturing since the end of the eighteenth century. The industrial system had been revolutionized by two changes: 1st, the new machines driven by water or by steam, and the new mechanical arts, had created the factory system; 2nd, small employers who produced directly for a single business house, were replaced by capitalist employers who produced on a large scale for the general market and for exportation.

H. Decommodification will Grow Tremendously. Those that serve them will make big $$$.

• What is decommodification. It is effectively that you grew tomatoes in your garden from seeds, and watered them with free rain water. The dollar cost of this is now near zero. You no longer partake in the commodification and cost-cycles of buying a tomato that was made in Mexico by slave labor (soon picking robots), shipped to your local grocery store, and bought buy you. You just did it at your house.

• Those that can find a niche market selling to those who decommodified such as the above chicken feeders are going to make good income streams.

I. Leisure Industries will Thrive.

• Niche industries will thrive that can service people that have more time and still have good incomes such as government pensions, and residual incomes.
• The above example is ripe for development. People love their pets as children. This service is simple, pick up all the dogs and take them to the dog park!
• House sitting, Insta-Cart, Uber will all proliferate - especially in an industry that requires

This has been going on for 250 years - it will keep going on for eternity. A quote from England from 1815 when the Industrial Revolution replaced many manual laborers:

• Be agile, be mobile, never assume that whatever is today will remain tomorrow.

"...almost no independent peasants, small landed proprietors, or tenants on lease; all lands had finally been absorbed into great estates, belonging to lords or squires.

A similar concentration had taken place in manufacturing since the end of the eighteenth century. The industrial system had been revolutionized by two changes: 1st, the new machines driven by water or by steam, and the new mechanical arts, had created the factory system; 2nd, small employers who produced directly for a single business house, were replaced by capitalist employers who produced on a large scale for the general market and for exportation..."
