Episode description
In case you’ve missed it, 2023 has become the year when automation and Artificial Intelligence (AI) started displacing cognitive and creative work. Chat-GPT, DALL-E and other tools are becoming ubiquitous, so this week we’re asking how L&D and HR should respond.
To answer this question, Owen and Ross D are joined on The Mind Tools L&D Podcast by Ashley Recanati, author of AI Battle Royale: How to Protect Your Job from Disruption in the 4th Industrial Revolution. We discuss:
- where the lessons of previous industrial revolutions apply to this one
- how ‘knowledge workers’ can adapt their job to work with AI tools
- the role of L&D in preparing people for the AI revolution.
