AI Doesn’t have to take your job

"AI is going to take your job." Maybe for some, but this doesn't have to be the case.

More news of tech layoffs... Yes but does that mean these people are now unemployable? No.

If you're tuned into the popular narratives on social media, it's 𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠.

But today's WSJ article offers a refreshing perspective that aligns closely with what I've been discussing regularly with my clients and friends.

The book "Slow Productivity" provides insightful approaches to modern work challenges, particularly in the era of AI and technological shifts.

Here are some 𝐤𝐞𝐲 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐞𝐬, highlighted in the article, that resonate with my entrepreneurial journey:

💡Adapt to AI: Emphasize creative and strategic thinking. With AI handling administrative tasks, you have more time to engage in what you truly love, right?

💡Focus on Quality: Commit to fewer tasks but with greater excellence. Quality over quantity always wins.

💡Plan for Breaks: Integrate strategic downtime. A quick walk often sparks my creativity when I hit a block.

💡Transparent Workflows: Keep your workload visible to manage expectations effectively. Remember, communication is as crucial in work as it is in relationships.

💡Realistic Timelines: Allocate sufficient time for tasks. You'll foster trust as you prove your reliability.

As we integrate AI into our businesses, these principles can help us remain effective and innovative. How are you adapting to changes in your workflow with AI?
