Only fools say that AI will take away our jobs. The fact is, AI will take away THEIR jobs, not OUR jobs. WE are massively increasing OUR income with AI.
How? There is one trend you need to understand.
Until now, you needed specialised knowledge and a degree from a high-profile institution or university to earn well – IIT, IIM, NLU, AIMS. Harvard, Oxford.
You had to be doctors, engineers, lawyers, bankers, writers, designers – the more specialised you were, the more you earned. And a good degree gave you a huge head start.
Well, AI is making this redundant very quickly.
For example, financial writers used to make more money than most other writers. But now, with AI, if you are a writer, you can very easily write high-quality financial articles, without having to read 100 books on financial markets first.
AI has read all the books, all the articles, and can seamlessly give you 15 points to write that article as easily as a financial writer with 5-10 years of specialised experience.
But there are things AI cannot do. Those are matters of human judgement, sensibilities, connections, reputation, trust, aesthetics.
Once you are confident that YOU have these qualities, you can write on financial issues, medical issues, legal issues, hippopotamus issues, whatever. All the research, data and knowledge is now at your fingertips. The specialist who spent 30 years writing on medical issues now hardly has any knowledge advantage over you, thanks to this almost magical force called AI.
The expert with 30 years of experience may still have a better understanding of what readers would or wouldn’t like, what they want to pay for, what they share with friends, what drives the point home, etc.
Those are questions of judgement and sensibility. But if they do not learn how to use AI, you may be after their job soon. If they learn AI, you can’t touch them.
But why limit yourself to writing? If you have those judgments and sensibilities, you can now also design or create illustrations thanks to AI.
You can turn the text you wrote into a screenplay as smoothly as a screenwriter with 10 years of experience. You can then get a video made with AI in 10 minutes.
You can write the social media posts you will need to promote the video using AI, and the outcome will be better than that provided by 90 percent of social media managers.
If you ask better questions, AI will give better answers. If you give better instructions, AI will produce higher quality output.
You can even write an HR Handbook just as someone with 10 years of HR experience would do. Perhaps even better, if your first principles thinking is strong.
You can even create an operational handbook as well as a six sigma black belt in operational excellence would perhaps do, and you will do it faster using AI. The black belt guy will struggle to justify why he should be paid for 10 hours when ChatGPT can do 90 percent of his job in 53 seconds!
He would have to do a lot of extra value add because the non-value add work is now gone thanks to automation.
Now you can look at this situation as some kind of dystopia. Or you can learn to use AI so that you can do all these tasks and become the boss to all of these professionals.
You can be the dream hire for many startups – an all-in-one business growth manager. A multi-talented, AI-powered, turbo generalist. A genie with solutions to an unlimited number of problems.
How is that for career growth? Hard to believe but exciting? Want proof?
You do not need to learn how to code AI or write algorithms. You don’t have to learn tech – just as you did not learn any tech to use Google search.
Yet, there are still people who can use Google search to find relevant information and those who can’t.
Similarly, there are people who can use AI to get stuff done faster and those who cannot, and so complain about how AI is no good. One group of people are super-powered professionals who will drive the business growth of the next decade and beyond. The other group of people will struggle.
The super-professionals are coming. Do you want to be one of them?
We have a free bootcamp where we can teach you the following over two evenings, three hours each:
- How to design like a professional designer using AI
- How to sharpen your writing and write narratives and stories like Salman Rushdie or non-fiction prose like Malcolm Gladwell
- How to edit a video in 10 minutes even if you never have done this before – something that a human professional takes at least an hour to edit without AI
- How to make a sales playbook in minutes even though you never did it before
- How to automate operations in a startup even if you have never worked in ops before
- How to use AI to recover dues and payments without learning how to draft legal notices
- How to use agent-GPT to grow a social media account better than top social media experts
Basically, you can learn in one weekend how to be a super professional, or turbo generalist, powered by AI, if you want.
In themselves, these skills are not hard to learn. You can go on Twitter or YouTube right now and find a bunch of demos. But even finding the right demos is a skill that you probably don’t have because you are not tapping into the right network.
There is something more, more valuable than these skills though.
How do you use these skills to start earning USD 2000 or more per month working remotely from home?
How will you convince US and UK small and medium businesses and startups to hire you to give such work where you can deploy these skills?
Those are even more valuable skills, which nobody will teach you.
