Comment on Ask HN: What new skills are you learning to hedge against AI

Comments

I'm considering learning video editing as a hedge against AI

Considering the proliferation of AI-driven video tools that seems like an odd choice. The mechanics of video editing is already moving to AI, and the 'taste' of video editing will probably fall to 'copy how classic movies did it' automatically in the same tools.

Personally, I moved into an Engineering Manager role 3 years ago partly as a hedge against the future of software development (but also money and fun.) I think I'll work with software until I retire but much more as a people manager, or maybe an 'agent manager' somehow.

I don't see how AI can make cool and professional video edits. In my mind, it's one of the most immune areas to AI. Unless you can convince me by showing me crazy AI video edits?
