According to CoinMeta, comedian Nate Bargatze believes that the rise of artificial intelligence could make skilled jobs more valuable. He thinks that AI technology can provide a new and less threatening way of learning for those who struggle with traditional education, while also ushering in a new economy that places more emphasis on the human experience. Bargatze, who used to be a water meter reader, is now performing in sold-out venues and plans to build a $350 million theme park in Tennessee. He points out that there is a shortage of skilled workers in the United States, and it is estimated that 1.7 million skilled job vacancies will need to be filled each year by 2035. Ford company has pledged to invest $300 million in skills training by 2026, and Bargatze, as its spokesperson, emphasizes the future of skilled jobs.
