It seems that, thanks to AI, the future of work has three paths to follow:
- If you are already a senior person in your company, you will probably shift from managing people to managing AI agents.
- Alternatively, you might become someone creative or handy, working with physical materials for a living—such as an artist, plumber, electrician, or baker.
- The third path is becomeing an entrepreneur.
Whichever path you choose, adaptability appears to be the key skill. Consider Darwin’s Survival of the Fittest, where the fittest are those who best adapt to their immediate environment.
In this new environment, there is no time to waste being a junior or intern, nor to dwell on coding skills lost to AI.

Yesterday I finished reading “Old school” by Nicholas Bate. A short, sharp case for going back to basics. No clever systems, no shortcuts — just a reminder that focus, discipline, and doing the work properly still matter. It reads fast. Worth it.
‘Old school’ means living by timeless principles. Who doesn’t value punctuality or resourcefulness under pressure? These qualities are never obsolete; they form the foundation for working and living with ease.

For thousands of years Greenland sharks have swum in silence, as above them the world has burned, rebuilt, burned again. […] I am glad not to be a Greenland shark; I don’t have enough thoughts to fill five hundred years. But I find the very idea of them hopeful. They will see us pass through our current spinning apocalypse, and the crash that will come after it, and they will see the currently unimagined things that will come after that: the transformations, revelations, the possible liberations. That is their beauty, and it’s breathtaking: they go on. These slow, odorous, half-blind creatures are perhaps the closest thing to eternal this planet has to offer.
