Thread 83031057

Hey /r9k/
I'm in my last year of university, majoring in computer science, but I honestly hate it. My parents keep seeing all the stuff online about coders not finding jobs, so now they want me to get another degree in AI or something.

I feel depressed as hell. I'm doing things I hate, and every time my parents talk to me, it's about this stuff it makes me anxious. They even want me to go to some "career convention" to look for future jobs.

When I study, it doesn't even feel like my body doing something I don't want, it's my mind being forced to do things I hate. I can't stand it anymore. I can't see a future that isn't just me doing things I hate for the rest of my life.

Why should I even keep going?

you need to get a revelation from god about what your mission in life would be. clearly being some wagecuck cog in the machine isnt fulfilling to you.

For me, is not honestly, i have a lot of passions like drawing playng guitar and learning new lenguages but this is all stuff ai is gona replace and at this point, I don't find the drive to study hard for a job I hate the same way, or even more than an Amazon warehouse job i never cared that much for money i dont desire material things and the majority of my hobby are pretty cheap

>Why should I even keep going?
for reasons you need to find yourself, not for anything else others tell you to do. you want to visit a place? go there, then you can die or do something else after. see the things you hate as tools to get what you don't hate. sadly i don't think there's any other way.

I have really low desires. I dont actually want to end myself I'm too much of a coward to even try but I just feel constantly down because of where my life is heading.

Oh, I just realized what the number thing meant, lol.
Honestly though, I really hope AI does not end up replacing all the artists or translators. Those were like my dream jobs, the few things I actually enjoyed doing, but AI kinda scared me off, and my parents made me super self conscious about it too.
Now I am just kinda here, trying to figure things out.
I still hope I can somehow reach those dreams, or, I dont know, maybe the job market will get so wrecked that not working just becomes normal
