Raw LLM Responses

This is the canary in the coal mine. STEM professions were the last attainable, well paying white-collar professions. The tech sector is around 10% of the GDP itself and it is obviously hurting, there's huge credential inflation for Software Developers, rapid outsourcing, and opportunities are dwindling. Medical professions are ok cause there's a lot of aging boomers... But the ladder is being pulled up. More attainable careers that dont require masters like Nursing, Radiological technologist, pharmacist assistant, etc. are becoming oversaturated or impacted by AI. Cost of medical school is insane and only doable for people that come from wealth. Engineering depends on having a manufacturing industry and it's been in decline for decades, I have 3 friends who are mechanical engineers, and 2 have been out of work for over a year. To me things look grim.
