I’m off work right now and was looking for something else to do in the meantime. I did a computer technician course in the past, and these days I do everything on my own. I know how to build a PC part by part, I know what is and isn’t compatible, I do cable management and lots of other things I learned by myself watching videos on the internet.
My question is whether nowadays it’s still worth dedicating myself and trying to work as a full‑time computer technician and later on maybe open a small shop?
I’ve been thinking about this a lot, but I’ll admit it’s a bit scary. I don’t think the moment is great, with the advance of artificial intelligence. Especially now with the GPT‑6 hype, the Claude updates, YouTube videos that teach you everything… I know it’ll be hard. But would you give it a shot? Or should I try another field?
