Are Junior players being set up for a tough life?

Off topic but there's a significant difference between world beater vs world and world beater vs kid.* Maybe it's not real to Strickland. Maybe not. They both played well enough to win their engagements, that's all I can tell.

*see Strickland vs Seo

I’m confused- what do you mean? That one solid match against a world class player doesn’t prove much?

I agree with that assessment in the short term, plumbers/carpenters etc "can't be replaced" But I think that's only in the near future. Looking down the line a bit, I don't believe that at all. My first grandson was just born and I fear there won't be any sort of job for him in 20 years.

Robotics and general automation has come a long way in a short time. It's not right in front of you yet so it's not on our radar so to speak. And it has done so without AI being on board. Now that AGI is the goal for all these global tech corporations, expect to robotics to be kicked into overdrive with the goal of replacing ALL HUMAN LABOR this is the only way these companies can turn a profit and that is absolutely their only goal damn the fallout/consequences. I could talk/complain about this all day. The future is quite BLEAK no matter what path you choose I'm afraid.
