I just published something I've been sitting on for months.
It's about watching freelance work disappear. About being 57 and reinventing myself again. About being scared.
I used to sell "I write content." That work is dying. AI does it for $20/month.
So I shifted to "I help founders figure out what the hell they're trying to say."
Same skill. Different positioning. Different survival.
The truth:
AI is great at tasks. Terrible at problems.
If your freelance service can be explained in one sentence, it can probably be automated.
Entry-level jobs dropped 29 percentage points since January 2024. This isn't coming. It's here.
Question for the group:
If you're freelancing, what shifted? What's still working? What died?
Drop a comment. Let's figure this out together.
