I'm also interested in hearing this.

For me, I'm planning to ride out this industry for another couple years building cash until I can't stand it, then pivot to driving a city bus.

Gardening and plumbing. Driving buses will be solved.

  • Plumbing seems like a relatively popular AI-proof pivot. If AI really does start taking jobs en masse, then plumbers are going to be plentiful and cheap.

    What we really need is a lot more housing. So construction work is a safer pivot. But, construction work is difficult and dangerous and not something everyone can do. Also, society will collapse (apparently) if we ever make housing affordable, so maybe the powers-that-be wont allow an increase in construction work, even if there are plenty of construction workers.

    Who knows... interesting times.

> then pivot to driving a city bus.

You seem to be counting on Waymo not obsoleting that occupation. ;)
