The pilot episode of Nathan Fielder's show is fantastic! I've not been able to stop thinking about it because it's so honest and raw. Like, really, what if we actually created spaces for folks to be able to speak up at work? How transformative could things really be?!
"Someone else commented that LLMs are just ‘next word prediction engines’ a comment that illustrates the danger of a little knowledge"
I've seen this argument a few times and it really misses the point. The Wright brothers' plane and a 787 operate on the same basic principle, but the impact is very different!
You’re highlighting exactly what I’ve been grappling with: AI isn’t just reshaping roles, it’s challenging our fundamental assumptions about the value humans bring to work. While it’s tempting to frame AI’s rise as purely disruptive, your insights clearly reveal it’s more nuanced than that. It’s a powerful reminder that our focus shouldn’t be on resisting AI but on consciously redefining our roles, processes, and cultures in meaningful ways. The human advantage isn’t just in tasks we perform but in the empathy, judgment, and creative connections we foster, qualities that AI complements but doesn’t replicate. Thanks for clearly articulating the urgency and complexity of navigating this transition thoughtfully.
