Frequently Asked Questions

Will AI completely eliminate my job?

Historical technology shifts show that entire job titles are rarely eliminated overnight. Instead, the tasks that define the job change. A financial analyst who spent 25 hours a week in Excel will now spend 2 hours prompting and checking AI outputs, freeing up 23 hours to advise clients.

How can I protect my career today?

Double down on skills AI cannot replicate: physical presence, high-stakes decision-making, genuine interpersonal empathy, and cross-disciplinary critical thinking. Become the person on your team who knows how to use AI tools responsibly.
