    Can vouch, everyone told me growing up that computer jobs were a safe and stable choice because “everyone needs computers.”

        I agree, but when most of my “elders” growing up believed computers to be this magical voodoo money printer box that just happens to go on facebook, It’s not suprising they believed any job relating to a computer was safe and stable.

        IT support by staff like sysadmins can hardly be replaced in the near future.
        I don’t see AI being able to setup a whole environment itself.

        Creative jobs on the other hand…

          Developers are often the ones setting up the environments now via things like Terraform. IT is still needed for on-prem work though.

            And who sets up those? If sysadmin jobs are killed for on premise at companies at the very least they will be needed for datacenter work.

      It’s definitely a good choice. And there will always be jobs. But job security is pretty minimal.
