Key Points
- Every knowledge worker can get a productivity boost by using GenAI. Workforce leaders need to provide GenAI training for their workforce. Not in three months, not in six months—now.
- People can advocate for their employees by upskilling their workforce, thinking through how GenAI impacts the fundamentals of their specific business, and by analyzing jobs through breaking them down by tasks and evaluating which can be automated.
- Jobs most exposed to automation are in customer service and sales, food service, production and manufacturing, and administration and office jobs. If you are earning $38,000 or less annually, your job is 14 times more likely to be automated, and if you are a woman, you are 50 percent more likely to need to transition to a new job, and if you are a person of color, you are 10 percent more likely.
- Two skills needed for the future are knowing how to use technology and having excellent social and emotional skills which are complementary alongside AI.
- Celebrate the small wins. The AI transition is not going to happen overnight, and the way to unlock the massive maze ahead is by celebrating small projects and slowly increasing overall momentum.
