Graduates Booed Eric Schmidt at Graduation But AI Isn’t Coming for Your Job. It’s Coming for Those Who Ignore It.
Graduates at the University of Arizona just made it loud and clear: when former Google CEO Eric Schmidt urged the Class of 2026 to “embrace AI” at commencement, boos filled the air. He admitted the fear, machines coming for jobs but pushed adaptation. The crowd pushed back.
Why the frustration hits hard:
- Entry-level roles in coding, writing, design, analysis, and admin are shrinking. AI now handles the “intellectually mundane” tasks juniors used to learn on.
- College grad unemployment is rising, especially in AI-exposed fields. Nearly 47% of 2026 grads worry AI is blocking starter jobs.
- Years of hard work + student debt, only to watch the launchpad get automated.
But here’s the empowering truth:
AI won’t just replace jobs, it amplifies humans who learn to direct it. BCG estimates 50-55% of US jobs will be transformed in the next 2-3 years, creating huge demand for people who oversee AI, solve exceptions, blend tech with creativity, empathy, and judgment.
Tech revolutions (computers, internet) always displaced tasks but exploded opportunities for those who rode the wave. The winners use the tools.
6 actionable steps to thrive as a new grad in the AI era:
1. Master AI daily — Become a power user: advanced prompting, tool chaining (Grok, Claude, ChatGPT + agents), automation. Make AI your 24/7 intern.
2. Double down on human superpowers — Critical thinking, storytelling, leadership, sales, ethics, and deep domain expertise. AI struggles with nuance and real accountability.
3. Build a visible portfolio — Ship AI-augmented projects on GitHub, a personal site, LinkedIn, and X. Show results, not just degrees.
4. Target hybrid roles — Seek “AI + [your field]” positions: implementation, ethics, creative direction, strategy.
5. Commit to lifelong learning — Grab quick certs (Coursera, https://t.co/xAx36lx0u0), contribute to open source, join AI communities.
6. Adopt an entrepreneur mindset — Use AI to lower barriers: freelance, launch micro-ventures, solve real problems.
The Class of 2026’s boos voiced a real anxiety millions share. But resentment won’t build your career, mastery will.
The future isn’t dictated by machines. It’s shaped by those brave enough to lead them.
Class of 2026: You’re stepping in at the exact moment this shift explodes. Who’s ready to build with AI instead of against it?

Amazon Connect Talent, Workday's Last Workday, AI job apocalypse is just bunk(?), companies use interview process as market intelligence...just one of several incredible essays in this week's issue..
Most people pick one AI and stick with it.
That’s like using a hammer for every job.
Here’s what 30 years in tech taught me:
The best operators don’t have a favorite tool.
They have the RIGHT tool.
ChatGPT vs Claude isn’t a debate.
It’s a workflow.
The image says it perfectly:
ChatGPT = Information. Claude = Understanding.
Both powerful. Different strengths.
Here’s how I actually use them:
Use ChatGPT when you need:
→ Deep research at scale
→ Browsing + real-time data
→ Pattern recognition across massive datasets
→ Clear, structured explanations fast
→ Coding, plugins, image generation in one place
It’s your sharpest research partner.
Fast. Wide. Relentless.
Use Claude when you need:
→ Long-form strategy documents
→ Nuanced writing that sounds human
→ Reasoning through ambiguous problems
→ Sensitive conversations requiring context
→ Thinking out loud with an AI that actually follows
It’s your wisest thinking partner.
Slower. Deeper. More precise.
My actual workflow in 2025:
Morning briefing → ChatGPT
Strategy memo → Claude
Competitive research → ChatGPT
LinkedIn content → Claude
Quick fact-check → ChatGPT
Investor narrative → Claude
Two tools. One brain. 10x output.
The mistake I see founders make:
They debate which AI is “better.”
Meanwhile, the operators who are winning?
They’ve stopped picking sides.
They’ve built a system.
AI isn’t about the tool you choose.
It’s about knowing WHEN to choose it.
Master the workflow.
Not the debate.

You don't just work for a salary.
You work in a culture — will you feel valued there?
For a manager — will they help you grow?
Toward a future — does this role move you forward?
Evaluate all three before you say yes to any offer 🎯

@alvinfoo Hmmm ... both have benefits. "something exciting for yourself" can also carry risk, stress, empty pockets, crazy hours, no support when sick... Some people thrive, others fold. Green grass on both sides. :)
