I understand your frustration, but perhaps not wanting to slave away in a unforgiving and unrewarding system is the only logical move left to make? We are currently in a massive societal transition, and when things settle down the entire concept of 'work' and 'being productive' will fundamentally change in ways you may find difficult to predict.
Encourage your kids to start experimenting with AI and learning how to use it for their own personal projects or hobbies.
“AI is not going to replace humans, humans with AI will replace humans that don’t use AI.”
The guy in this video wearing the hat is Emad Mostaque (founder and CEO of Stability AI) and he strongly believes that the initial productivity gains from AI seen this last year will quickly turn into a catastrophic period of mass layoffs within 1-2 years.
You will find that UBI or a similar system of monthly income will likely roll out around this same time to allow people to adjust. AI will not shrink the job market in many industries, it will completely remove them. Almost any job that requires a computer. Programming will no longer be a profession, along will law, accounting, teaching, etc.
The biggest problem to prepare for will be those unable to adjust. People that define themselves with their job or profession are going to be in serious psychological trouble/depressed. There will be new ways to interact with people and cultivate meaning and purpose in life.
I’m watching this right now and it’s hitting me for the first time how…massively…AI is entering and changing our reality. It’s something I’ve paid very little attention to up until now. Fascinating. Completely scrambles and obliterates my predictions (pure speculation of course) of the future. As those two blokes discussed, it WILL either free and unlock humanity, or create an unspeakable nightmare Slave world. Thankful I’m an optimist right now. I feel like I better get to familiarizing myself with it. Where do I even begin?

I highly recommend watching this video regarding the next 3 year timeline of AI rollout: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Se91Pn3xxSs
