Hello everyone,

I wanted to open up a discussion about artificial intelligence (AI) and how it may affect careers, education, and business.

AI technology is spreading rapidly across many parts of society. Every week we hear new stories about how AI is being used in workplaces, schools, and businesses. With these developments, many people are wondering how AI may influence the future of work and learning.

A question to start the discussion:

Do you think AI will create more jobs than it replaces?

Some people believe AI will create many new opportunities. Others worry that it may replace certain jobs or change how industries operate.

So for this post, I’d love to hear your thoughts and opinions.

Below are a few additional questions to help start the discussion. Feel free to answer any of them or simply share your own ideas.

Careers

• Do you think AI will influence careers? If so, how?

• What types of careers do you think will be most affected by AI?

• Are there careers that you believe will not be greatly influenced by AI?

• What impact do you think AI may have on remote work and remote careers?

Education

• What influence do you think AI will have on education?

• Do you think the impact will mostly be positive, negative, or a mix of both?

• Where do you think AI will have the biggest impact:

• elementary schools
• middle schools
• high schools
• colleges and universities

• How might AI influence online or remote learning?

Starting or Operating Your Own Business

• How do you think AI might influence businesses that people start or operate?

• What new types of businesses might emerge because of AI?

• Are there businesses that may become more difficult to run in the age of AI?

• How might AI influence remote business opportunities?

Society in General

• What broader changes do you think AI may bring to society?

If we get enough responses, I may share a summary of the ideas and perspectives in a future post.

If you'd like to participate, you can:

• Leave a comment on the video titled “A.I. and the Future of Careers – What Do You Think?” on the Live Your Life Learning YouTube channel

• Send your thoughts to [email protected]

Thanks for taking the time to read and participate in the discussion.

This Week: AI Resources and Wrist-Friendly Career Tools

Hello everyone,

I hope you’re all doing well. Sorry for the pause in posting recently — I’ve had a few health issues to manage, but things are improving and I’m getting back into the swing of things.

With all the news lately about artificial intelligence and how it’s changing the workplace, I wanted to share a resource that some of you may find helpful.

Goodwill, the nonprofit organization that supports many career and workforce programs, is currently offering the Google AI Essentials Course for free for a limited time. If you’re curious about learning the basics of AI and how it can be used in everyday work tasks, this may be worth checking out.

More details can be found on the Goodwill website:

https://www.goodwill.org/

I'm not sure if the course is limited to people in the United States or available internationally, so be sure to check the website for details.

Resources for People with Wrist Challenges

For those who experience wrist pain or repetitive strain issues, I’ve also been working on sharing some ideas and resources that may help. I don’t claim to have all the answers, but I’ve been documenting some things I’ve learned along the way.

I’ve created a small YouTube channel where I share information and resources related to wrist injuries and career options. Some additional notes and explanations are included in the video descriptions.

You can find the channel here:

If you have thoughts, suggestions, or ideas, I’d be happy to hear them. You can either:

• Leave a comment on a video with the title "This Week: Course A.I and Wrist Resources" video on the Live Your Life Learning YouTube channel

• Send feedback to: [email protected]

My goal is to post again in about two weeks. I’m working toward sharing content a few times each month, and I’m also hoping to begin posting some interview conversations soon.

Things have been on pause for a while, so I appreciate everyone’s patience as I get things moving again.

Thanks for following along.

Mike
