Michael Burry: On that point, many point to trade careers as an AI-proof choice. Given how much I can now do in electrical work and other areas around the house just with Claude at my side, I am not so sure. If I’m middle class and am facing an $800 plumber or electrician call, I might just use Claude. I love that I can take a picture and figure out everything I need to do to fix it.
It’s easy to do plumbing or electrical “repairs” in ways that work, but are dangerous or will cause you trouble later on. I’ve fixed plenty of messes like that. If you have to ask Claude how to do trivial residential repairs, then you aren’t competent to know whether Claude is getting it right or not, and to be honest your opinion counts for absolutely nothing.
