Naval on "Careers are kinda dead" and the concept of 'Mastery'
I have been reading two books in parallel, one being 'The Almanack of Naval Ravikant' by Eric Jorgenson, and the other one being 'Mastery' by Robert Greene.
At first, I found some connections between both of their philosophies, the converging point of "specific knowledge" and "Fusing various categories" etc.
But in this recent video on vibe coding - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTdSU7q5WCo&t=1323s, he mentioned that "careers are kinda dead"
And within the Almanack book, there is this mention of "It’s much more important today to be able to become an expert in a brand-new field in nine to twelve months than to have studied the 'right' thing a long time ago."
And then in Yuval Noah Harrari's book '21 lessons for the 21st century', he points towards a possible future where automation can be so rapid that career switches can be insane, on which Naval also shared some similar ideas saying in one of the videos along the lines that "training and tuning AI models is of high leverage, until auto training and auto tuning arrive"...
I have been trying to get my head around all of this, I would love if you have any thoughts to share on this.
