Are you waking up at 3 AM, worried that AI will take your job?

Most people are either losing their jobs to AI or panicking about when it's coming. The band-aid is off. This is happening whether we like it or not.

I've been geeking out on this stuff since my first Commodore VIC-20. I got AI three years ago, well before most people did. And I'm going to tell you something that might surprise you.

You don't have to die in this transition. You just have to be reborn.

Stick with me. You'll know exactly how to thrive.

Featured Story

I got my first computer when I was 18. A Commodore VIC-20 that cost me $299 when I was making $1,000 a month as a disc jockey.

That's a lot of money for a machine that really couldn't do anything. But I've been geeking out on technology forever. This whole business I've started now because I knew how to get online before anybody else.

I got AI three years ago, well before most people did. I've used it for so many projects. I've taught people to use it.

When I get excited about it, my dog Levi literally leaves the room because he thinks I'm mad. I'm not mad. I'm passionate. Because I can see what's coming.

Important Points

We're moving from wage labor to capital ownership. Making money by the hour simply won't work as time goes on.

Information jobs are ending fast. If you process data, push spreadsheets, or transcribe, your work will be gone soon.

The last mile of AI isn't ready yet. Main Street shops aren't getting robots anytime soon. We've still got time.

Memorable Quotes

"You don't have to die in this AI transition. You just have to be reborn and think just a little differently."

"We're transitioning from information to wisdom and experience. AI can't make decisions or tell you what to do."

"People will pay you for their dreams. AI makes it easier and faster to get there, and you'll like the job better."

Scott's Three-Step Approach

Accept that AI is coming and there's nothing we can do to stop it. The band-aid is off. Just move forward already.

Once you accept reality, transition from information work to wisdom and experience, where AI can't replicate you.

Position yourself strategically in one of the four economies: attention, experience, authenticity, or meaning.
