Sam Altman on what you need to do to survive in the age of artificial intelligence. "You are about to enter the greatest golden age of human possibility..." To thrive in that world, the skills that matter most are: - Deep familiarity with the tools - Staying abreast of changes - Developing a great intuition for AI tools, where things are going, and how to make use of it - Resilience and the ability to learn things fast and evolve yourself with technology I know most of this stuff is a pretty big no-brainer for anyone paying attention, but here's the takeaway: AI upskilling and keeping up with AI are possibly the most important skills in the world right now. And the most fascinating part is that new AI developments and tools come out so fast that everyone is constantly learning. I'd be willing to bet that if you're a complete beginner but spend 3 months of dedicated learning, you'd be fully caught up to power users. In other words: Spend 3 months learning → work 2-4x faster and future-proof yourself. There's so much opportunity for anyone who just starts now.

As more human jobs become assisted, automated, or replaced by artificial intelligence, we must spend our hours where we have a competitive advantage over machines: developing new ideas, expressing old things in new ways, innovating process, and crafting the story that infuses our creations with meaning .
