Ah well min wage jobs suck arse, they don’t teach you anything except your tolerance to misery, maybe they’re essential in that regard
It’s gonna be carnage. Not only are you faced with AI but if you’re coming out of college you’re also facing competition from abroad, the gate is truly open now for “skilled workers” from abroad but in reality the work isn’t skilled in how we typically mean it. They’re jobs where education helps to perform the job but they’re not STEM roles. You could take a LC student and train them. But these people don’t tend to plan on staying in Ireland for long and they can make some money before heading back home. Zero job security but they fill a gap. This is the future of the job market. Thanks globalisation. And the thing is, you can’t complain because globalisation has been undoubtedly a net positive for the world but it doesn’t care who wins or loses on the aggregate.
What a time to be finishing college.
I did my placement with a semi state.
Was verbally told that I’d have a job with them after college.
Was then told that the “business needs changed” in October.
Now I’m looking for grad roles in Cork, there’s like 3-6 total grad jobs and 4 of them tend to be in engineering.
How does anyone make this work?
And before someone says “try finishing college in 2007 during the recession”, don’t.
Honestly if i was a young person thinking of going to collage right now your best option is probably to go into the trades and get a something that cant be replaced by ai because the laptop generation is going to get hit hard by ai.
And what usually follows when masses of the young to middle aged find themselves with no work and no hope of employment? I do worry AI is gonna be a catalyst for major social upheaval, potentially including revolution. Hyperbolic maybe?
Which AI can dress a wound?
[There won’t be enough nurses to staff the National Children’s Hospital – INMO](https://www.thejournal.ie/there-wont-be-enough-nurses-to-staff-the-national-childrens-hospital-inmo-6697813-May2025/)
There was a AI expert guy on sky news today whose been involved in AI since the early years who warns that we’re heading towards disaster.
His prediction is that millions will be on the scratcher in 5 years if the current trajectory of developments in AI continues.
I swear watch as AI just shotgun backfires on them, AI is good sure but it will never replace my ability to coherently and repeatably write code that works, all it does is
>get asked a question
scan internet for thing
spit out answer
While I can think about a problem, figure out what works and implement it
We started a long time ago with this issue for young people when entry level jobs required 5 years experience.
