AI Will Create New Jobs Like Internet and Mobile Did

AI will create a lot of jobs. when internet was new, it disrupted a lot of jobs like media, travel agents, printing press etc. but it also created a lot of new roles like web developers, seo, cloud engineers, growth teams, devops, social media, etc. none of these jobs really existed before the web became the default layer of the world. similar thing happened when mobile devices became popular. it created a ton of new jobs like ios developers, network engineers, ux, etc. AI is the new technological shift. writing a software is easy now. anyone can generate code, design frontend, and ship a prototype in hours. but that is exactly the point: when building becomes cheap, something else becomes hard. most AI apps never reach meaningful scale. distribution, integration, workflows, reliability, and real user value are hard problems. i see two relatively new roles are already getting popularity. 1/ gtm engineer to make sure what is built in a day stays for a long. making sure it reaches users and grows. 2/ forward deployed engineer: as most companies want to enable AI/agent in their products but not a lot of engineers are fully educated about the core tech of it. so next time don’t worry about the AI will take your job. worry about whether you are competitive and educated enough to survive the new wave of roles.
