Gallup and Bentley University find that most Americans (75%) believe artificial intelligence will lead to fewer job opportunities in the next 10 years.
The only reason Y2K wasn’t worse was because a shit ton of people were hired to fix it before it happened. I remember folks literally coming to my high school in the late 90s and asking students to learn COBOL so we could help. There was a huge effort to stop it before it happened.
How many Americans thought Y2K was going to crash the entire world?

This is such a frustrating concept that so many people don’t get. It was a huge issue, that’s why it got fixed before it could cause major damage.
My dad thinks climate change is overblown because Y2K didn’t break the world.
it’s COBOL by the way
Ha! Thanks for that. I wasn’t one of the kids who took up the call.
eyup. I was writing reports for a database for engineers to reference for remediation.
That wasn’t my question
Is that what some countries call Y2K?
No, that’s what my stupid brain vomited out lol. Thank you, I corrected it.
