Whether you're 20, 30, 40, or 50, you're gonna be fucked by AI in some way in the next decade. It doesn't matter if you're old or not.
How?
Can you give some realistic, meaningful ways the average person like myself will be fucked by AI?

If you can cope at 12C in a T-shirt
... up to you, I wear a real jacket and a scarf.
Ugh...had to get on ChatGPT and find out what the fuck 12C was in F.
Ok, so about 54F...roughly. That's cool...I guess depends a bit on how high your humidity is. In the New Orleans area, it can be 54F and very humid...if the wind is coming in off the lake it can be quite chilly....but if lower humidity, more into winter months,...that's not too cold...I'd be wearing a sweater or a jacket....not both.

Last week it was high-90's and low 100's along the central coast (Santa Cruz & Monterey). It cooled down at night, but I also don't have A/C because I almost never need it, maybe for 3-5 days every 3-4 years it would be appreciated.
You can't get a couple window units to have AC when you need it?
You can put them up and take them down pretty readily......better than baking/roasting on those days when you really don't need to.

Talk shows have been exempt from the equal time law right up until 2026.
Not quite true....
NEWS shows are exempt.....talk shows and other entertainment shows most decidedly are not exempt.

No, i'm just that disorganised to have run out of gas thrice in my life, and have my phone die on me with some regularity. I dread having to remember to plug in yet one more 'device' with regularity.
My Prius works really well for me. I'm glad your EV works for you, especially if you live in a home with solar panels. I live in an apartment
