"Am I going to be replaced by AI?" - Crucial question, but maybe we're asking the wrong one.
📈 There's a statistic from my reads this week that stays with me: Tomer Cohen, LinkedIn's CPO, shares to Jeremy Kahn that 70% of skills used in most jobs will change by 2030. Not jobs disappearing, but transforming. And he calls out bad leadership: "If in one year's time, you are disappointed that your workforce is not 'AI native,' it is your fault."
🔄 Apparently, the Great Recalibration has begun. We're now heading into an era where AI is fundamentally redefining the nature of work itself, by forcing a complete reassessment of human value in the workplace, according to a piece in Fast Company. But it might be driven more by "the need for humans to change the way they work" than AI.
⚡ The Washington Post draws a crucial parallel: We're facing an "AI shock" similar to manufacturing's "China shock" - but hitting knowledge workers. Especially entry-level, white-collar work could get automated. The key difference? "Winning the AI tech competition with other countries won't be enough. It's equally vital to win the battle to re-skill workers."

Also, I'm curious: how are you keeping up with this pace of change? What strategies are working for you?
