What advice do you give to young graduates who are experiencing anxiety that AI is taking away entry-level jobs? I'd have a couple of pieces of advice. One, in any role in any field, be the most AI-enabled version of yourself you can possibly be. There's tons of anthropologists that have written about how we evolve with our tools, and you can just imagine a farming competition between a guy with a tractor and some drones and the other guy's got a plow and a donkey. Who's gonna win? And you need to think about it that way. If there are 40 people in your org all doing the same thing and you understand how AI affects that role more than the rest of them, you're not getting laid off. It's just not gonna happen. And you'll also start to understand what parts of your job are a threat or not, and maybe you can elevate yourself to where you're a designer and not the worker bee because you now have this power.

Summary

Embrace AI to enhance your skills and job security. Understanding AI's impact on your role can help you advance your career and avoid layoffs.

Key Points

  1. Be the most AI-enabled version of yourself in any role.
  2. Understanding AI can protect you from job loss.
  3. Evolving with tools is essential for career advancement.
  4. Know which parts of your job are threatened by AI.
  5. Elevate your role by leveraging AI capabilities.
