This piece realy made me think. It's fascinating how Gen Z is navigating the AI landscape. I totally agree with your analisys that trades seem like a solid play right now. The automation risks in corporate entry-level roles are certainly real. It makes sense, even if I'm a bit skeptical about anything being truly AI-proof long term.

a very good piece and realization - it's true that the trades have their own risks, but they feel less random than AI layoffs.

I have a friend who left an entry-level sales gig for HVAC, and he literally told me "I deal with weather swings, but not layoffs." Just shows how the trades feel waaaay more predictable

Thanks for the comment, Mia. Living in the southern U.S. as I do, there will always be a need for HVAC technicians. It’s definitely a secure field.
