The thing that stays with me from this piece is the honesty of not knowing. In a landscape where everyone claims certainty—either utopia or apocalypse—you're sitting with the ambiguity. That takes more intellectual courage than most of the takes out there.
Your "humans of the gaps" framing is sharp—I've been circling the same thought but couldn't name it. The retreat keeps happening: first it was "AI can't write," then "can't code," now we're down to "judgment" and "emotional intelligence." Each time the gap closes, the argument shifts.
What struck me most: you used Claude to write about worrying about Claude. That recursive unease feels like the real story. We're already inside the transition, using the tools to process what the tools mean. The irony isn't lost on you, and that self-awareness makes this piece land harder than most AI anxiety essays I've read.
The hiring data for 22-25 year-olds is the part I can't shake. "The door is quietly closing on my generation"—that line will stay with me.

Idk, AI seems to be a lot more technologically aggressive than ATMs. Like I think the essence is that they're trying to replace humans in their entirety (AGI shit), rather than specific tasks. At a certain point, people run out of alternative endeavors or opportunities within the economy to meaningfully participate. Anyways yeah, I think AI is gonna late stage economy us. Maybe I'm just doomer pilled like the lol.
