Encountering AI tools at work

You wrote

I keep seeing new AI tools that can do parts of my job. Every time I see one, I get this sinking feeling that it's only a matter of time before I'm not needed. I feel anxious most days and I've lost motivation because I keep thinking — what's the point of getting better at something a machine will do?

It sounds like those unexpected encounters with new AI tools leave a lingering worry, almost like an unwelcome guest in your thoughts. It's difficult when something outside your control seems to threaten something you've worked hard on.
