AI at Pandemic Pace: COVID-Scale Disruption or Overblown Fear?

A panel conversation prompted by Matt Shumer’s “Something Big Is Happening” ↗, exploring the pace and impact of AI change.

My takeaways from the discussion

  • COVID was an external shock; AI is a capability shock. It is changing how work gets done, not simply where.
  • From assisting to augmenting to delegating, AI is moving towards orchestrating multi-step work. Human context, judgement and accountability still matter.
  • A convincing demo does not transform an economy overnight. Society moves slower than code.
  • The gap between AI capability and AI literacy may be the bigger bottleneck.

Has AI’s Threat to the Job Market Finally Taken Effect?

A discussion about AI, employment and what organisations are actually experiencing as they explore the technology.

My takeaways from the discussion

  • Distinguish professions, jobs and tasks: the impact of AI often begins with tasks before changing jobs or professions.
  • Many organisations are still moving beyond AI hype to understand practical applications and tangible benefits.
  • AI literacy and experimentation typically come before decisions about cost and workforce changes.
  • The pace of change is a feature of this era. We need to get better at experimenting.
