HUMANIZING WORK WITH AI

Today, the supply chain enables jobs by delivering products to workers. But could the supply chain reinvent work by providing AI-enabled services?

The easiest path is to use AI to automate tasks, lowering costs by eliminating human work. But what if AI could instead enhance what humans accomplish?

• Productivity: Achieve MORE

• Creativity: Generate NEW ideas

• Purpose: Add MEANING

Who in the supply chain ecosystem—including educators, development organizations, distributors, manufacturers, professional and trade associations, and unions—will step up to make this happen? What incentives are needed?

My thoughts are inspired by this conversation between Daron Acemoglu and Tristan Harris on the podcast, Your Undivided Attention:
