General Jack Keane weighs in on the U.S. intelligence that led to the capture of Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro and what it means for global power dynamics.

 

The Venezuelan people were ‘oppressed by a dictatorship’, says former Columbian ambassador.

 

I asked ChatGPT what are the best jobs for Humans, as AI tools replace many jobs. What are jobs that AI can not easily replace?

Here’s the short list I’d bet on—the common thread is human judgment, trust, hands-on dexterity, or responsibility that AI can’t fully assume.

Where humans keep the edge

1) Relationship + trust

• Physicians/NPs/therapists, social workers, teachers/tutors/coaches

• Client-facing law (negotiation, litigation strategy), wealth advisors

• Enterprise sales, account management, partnerships, fundraising

2) Open-ended problem solving

• Product managers, founders, ops leaders, management consultants

• Security/incident response, threat intel, red/blue teams

• Policy, compliance, audit, and risk (AI governance, safety, model risk)

3) Physical work in unstructured settings

• Electricians, plumbers, HVAC, solar installers, general contractors

• Automotive technicians, avionics, marine, field service & maintenance

• Healthcare hands-on: nurses, PT/OT, EMTs, surgical techs, radiology techs

4) Creative direction + taste

• Editors, creative directors, brand strategists, UX leads, game/level designers

• Investigative journalists, curators, community builders, event producers

5) Build & run AI systems (human-in-the-loop)

• Data/product folks who ship: AI product manager, AI solutions architect

• Prompt + eval + safety engineers; analytics + experimentation leads

• Workflow automation engineers (RPA + LLMs tied to ops/finance/IT)

6) Critical infrastructure

• Energy (grid, battery, nuclear/renewables), logistics, agriculture tech

• Public sector: emergency management, urban planning, inspection/regulation

Roles likely to grow with AI (not be replaced by it)

• Top-of-funnel creators who own distribution (newsletter/YouTube/Substack + products)

• SMB owners using AI to 10× output (agencies, e-commerce, local services)

• Technical trades + AI tooling (e.g., electricians using AR/LLM diagnostics)

• Compliance/safety across finance, health, and AI itself (assurance, model risk)

What not to chase as a moat

• Pure content piecework, undifferentiated copy/design, basic research summaries

• Routine back-office tasks that are rules-based and screen-bound

How to make yourself “AI-complementary” fast

1. Pick a domain (healthcare, energy, finance, trades, law, education).

2. Master a stack: spreadsheets/SQL → Python basics → an LLM toolchain (prompting, retrieval, evaluation).

3. Ship portfolio proofs:

   • “Agent that drafts & reconciles invoices for a local shop”

   • “Tutor bot + analytics that raises student quiz scores 20%”

   • “Field-tech playbook with photo intake → auto diagnostics → parts ordering”

4. Measure outcomes (time saved, error rate, revenue lift) and lead with those in resumes/pitches.

5. Lean into trust: certifications, licenses, and public case studies.

Want me to tailor this to your background and map 3 concrete job paths (skills, certs, first projects, and a 60-day plan) you could start now?
