∞ ModernAiWorkplace.com: AI is not going to take your job. Someone who understands AI is going to take your job.
Reading time: ~3 minutes.
Scott Galloway, aka Prof G, summarized AI’s impact very well when stating that
“AI is not going to take your job. Someone who understands AI is going to take your job. Just get good at it.
If you didn’t want to learn computers in the 80s or 90s, it meant eventually you weren’t as skilled as the person next to you.
No machine is going to show up (in the short term at least) and take your job, but some young person who really understands this is going to come and just add more value for less money (unless you understand AI). “
What’s news in AI workplace Productivity
Artificial intelligence continues to transform workplace productivity by automating tasks, enhancing decision-making, and reshaping how we work.
The AWS report on AI in the workplace highlights five key trends: 92% of U.S. organizations plan to adopt AI by 2028, with generative AI tools set to become commonplace. Employers are willing to pay an average of 47% more for workers with AI skills, highlighting an AI talent gap. AI is expected to boost productivity by automating tasks, driving innovation, and improving decision-making. Despite its potential, many organizations still struggle to find AI-skilled talent.
The Microsoft report on generative AI in workplaces highlights significant productivity gains, particularly in task automation and decision-making. It finds that AI is most impactful in roles involving repetitive tasks, customer service, and content creation, while specialized technical fields show more modest improvements. The report also underscores the importance of AI adoption for enhanced efficiency and reduced workload but emphasizes variation in results based on job function and AI usage. Early evidence suggests that AI may reduce cognitive fatigue by automating routine tasks.
These developments show how major tech companies are racing to enhance workplace productivity with AI. Whether it’s through task automation, collaboration tools, or cutting-edge AI models, the future of work is increasingly AI-driven.
Imagine your next employer not giving you merely an iPhone and a MacBook to work on but also Vision Pro.
