“This is such a powerful piece! I’m with you 100% on the bogus attribution to AI for the layoffs. It’s AI today, it was different kinds of automation in the past. Not a new story plot. Tech, no matter how “smart” it is, is best used as a tool to help humans do what they cannot do in past—or as easily. The tasks that can be easily automated aren’t what make humans indispensable. It’s the qualities and the power of applying those you called out, including all the heart-based elements that no amount of super-power computing in analytics and emotion-less reasoning can generate—that impacts innovation, breaking boundaries, and creating new possibilities that non-sentient tech can never create. That’s the stuff that AI can—will—NEVER come close to being able to replace humans to create.”
