Imagine being a virtual assistant in 2026 and that is all there is to what you offer.
Why should anyone hire you when they can just use AI?
A decade ago, if you pitched yourself with offers like research, writing, emails, scheduling, content planning, documentation, data organization, follow-ups etc, it would prolly make a lot of sense for someone to hire you.
Today, AI can handle a lot of those tasks with little to no human input, and in some cases, it can do them faster and more efficiently.
And this doesnāt just apply to virtual assistants. Iām only using them as an example.
We laugh at posts like āAI will take your jobs,ā but tbh, itās not even funny anymore.
AI can now do so much more with so little human effort.
When I try to imagine what the AI space will look like a year from now, Iām genuinely mind blown.
There are industries you probably think AI canāt touch yet. Watch it come for them too.
But hereās the thing, the more advanced AI gets, the more opportunities it seems to create.
New problems
New tools
New roles
New businesses
New markets
This is already a rapidly growing industry, with trillion dollar market forecasts ahead.
Yes, we can still say weāre early..
At least for now.
But in a couple of years from now or maybe even months⦠well you know the rest.
