  • The 5 AI Tools You Need After ChatGPT (that do real work)
  • The paradigm shift is here: retraining for the next big job might be a dead end. 🔥 Leading AI safety expert, Dr. Roman Yampolskiy, makes a chilling case for why the next wave of automation won't just replace *some* jobs—it could eliminate *all* human employment. The strategies we relied on, from learning to code to becoming prompt engineers, are already being surpassed by AI itself. This isn't about finding a Plan B occupation; it's about facing the ultimate questions: What supports humanity financially when work disappears? What provides meaning for our extra 60+ hours weekly? A vital, paradigm-shattering perspective on the true trajectory of artificial intelligence and society. #AIAutomation #FutureOfWork #JobLoss #RomanYampolskiy #AISafety

Watch now: https://youtu.be/cXfQFFsijkI Andrew Yang — 2020 presidential candidate and visionary behind the Freedom Dividend — joins Michael Smerconish LIVE on CNN to discuss whether Universal Basic Income (UBI) could serve as a shield against the accelerating wave of job loss caused by Artificial Intelligence. If you think the case for UBI already sounds dramatic… listen to what one AI safety pioneer is now warning. University of Louisville computer science and engineering professor Roman Yampolskiy, author of “AI: Unexplainable, Unpredictable, Uncontrollable,” argues that 99% of workers could be unemployed by 2030 as humanoid robots and advanced AI models make human labor uneconomical. This conversation brings together two urgent perspectives: - Andrew Yang on UBI as a financial safety net - Roman Yampolskiy on the existential risks of AI-driven automation What happens when AI can do most jobs — faster, cheaper, and without limits?
