If you want another look at how the world is currently changing with the introduction of #GenerativeAI in our daily lives, and the national-level decisions for countries that may not build foundational #LLMs but are conscious that the future of #work, #education, #productivity, and research depends on AI, its cultural modeling, and the reliance on superpowers and mega-corporations/hyperscalers, this talk is worth watching.
This presentation by Tyler Cowen at George Mason University offers some truly worldview-shifting insights that could directly impact you:
Your Skills vs. AI: Is “being the smartest person in the room” still your best asset, or is learning to guide AI now more valuable for your career?
- Expert Help on Demand: What if you, or your local doctor, could instantly tap into top-tier specialist knowledge for complex problems, all through AI?
- Your Job, Radically Changed, Soon: How will your day-to-day tasks and professional identity shift when AI starts handling significant parts of your current workload – potentially within the next 24 months?
- Launching Big Ideas, Leaner Than Ever: Could you, or a small, agile team, realistically build and scale a major project or business that once required a large corporation, thanks to AI?
Tyler Cowen discusses #artificialintelligence from an economist perspective and its potential impact on various aspects of life and society. He highlights how AI is not just about knowledge recall but is outperforming humans in complex tasks and even nuanced interactions.

Colleagues require to be upskilled to stay ahead, not only for the sake of the company but also to help them to keep building their personal value with respect to the market. Thus, leaders and HR have to set things in motion by organizing the next steps, while their own jobs are being reshaped and augmented…”
Invest a few minutes of your life to make decisions, not just undergo them.
