..based on "interviews we conducted with 62 baby boomers...

There are 75 million Baby Boomers and they interviewed 62 of them?! This is all crap. Just more fake news.

It’s hard to know. It can go either way this AI revolution

But there is definitely some anxiety in the media and generally about the impact of it.

They are sociology “professors.” They already know what they want to say, they just interviewed a few people to gather some quotes and sob stories to pad their copy.

I used to conduct surveys for my company.

One step in the process was to do an in-depth interview with about 30 customers. It was statistically proven that in those interviews you could determine about 95% of customer “needs.”

A lot of companies would stop there, because it was cheaper and, “You knew what you needed to know.”

That was a mistake. You needed to cull out the “needs” and do about six more steps (usually fairly expensive steps) to figure out which of those “needs” were really, really important to the customers. This part was where the “hard work” needed to be done.

It sounds like this is what happened in this survey.

Learn a trade, use your hands. AI can’t unclog a toilet, or do precise carpentry.
