Sharing some recent anxieties: As someone with a business background from a top-tier university (985), entering the crypto industry has made me quite satisfied with my current situation, but I've also fallen into a kind of "path dependency." Crypto experience feels like a specialized skill, difficult to transfer to other tech fields. Faced with the explosion of AI and Robotics, my biggest dilemma isn't whether I can get in, but whether it's worth it. Taking a regular job, given my current situation, seems uninteresting, but not getting involved risks missing out on the biggest technological dividend of this generation. This sense of crisis—fearing being left behind on the eve of the AI singularity—far surpasses the anxiety caused by asset fluctuations and market downturns.

A question I often ponder is: If I join/deepen my career in the AI industry now, is there even a one in a thousand chance that I could create a manus or invest in a minimax?

Indeed, I often feel anxious about what I'm doing and what value I can create. The more I think about it, the more useless I feel. I may seem highly educated, but I don't really know what use I am, haha.

It's better to invest than to do.
