the way to stave off AI is be sufficiently expert and knowledgeable in your field you can't be beat by a websearch. if you are brighter and know more than the machine, you use it and are leveraged into a multiple of yourself. if you are content to skate by, don't know the nuances of your field that can't be absorbed scrapeing the internet, make dumb gung-ho decisions, the computer will take your job.
well, i should nuance that. i understand some companies are trying to bring checkers back. people using u-check-out devices are slow and prone to theft. but a computer may run the numbers and tell them that.
make sensible, non-John Wayne decisions. don't be at some massive business with tons of data where the computer can better calculate the next step than you can.
