Description
In this May 2023 livestream, I discuss the massive job displacement on the horizon from AI and automation. While profound changes are ahead that could decimate workforces, I share an optimistic perspective. With access to powerful new tools, displaced workers can gain skills, start businesses and build technology themselves. Rather than resist progress, embracing it with intention allows us to guide AI toward human-centric outcomes over profit-driven ones. There will be difficult transitions, but if people get curious and learn now, many new opportunities will emerge. What are your thoughts on the coming workforce impacts of AI? Let me know in the comments!
