I work at a large pharmaceutical company with more than 20,000 employees, and I’m the only one who talks about generative AI. The biggest challenge is leadership.

@gollibronco2296

I am 66 years old and have been using AI to understand how I have worked in my profession all my working life. I am convinced that much of what Ian is saying is spot on. What an interesting conversation. Thank you. 👏👏👏

Plot twist, this entire podcast was Ai.

@benpielstick

This conversation seems extremely pessimistic with regard to the potential of AI over the next decade. Of the 5 levels of AGI defined by OpenAI we are already on Level 3: Agents. Level 4 is autonomous innovation, and level 5 is fully replacing entire organizations. When AI is better, faster, cheaper, and safer at every economically viable task than humans, there is no more purpose for humans in the loop. Not just jobs are going away, work is going away. The value of all human labor is going to zero.

@gregnixon1296

This is one of the most valuable, insightful conversations I have heard in a long while.

@Mega-Tales

I automatically stop listening to anyone who says 'new challenges'

@RZero7

20:30  He argues that individual-level data and experiences should remain with the individual. But won’t companies simply pay individuals to provide their data? If one actor refuses to lend their voice for AI training, won’t another accept the offer and get paid? And wouldn’t the same pattern apply across various other cases?

@fr3dmc

Ian Beacraft is delusional If your value can be distilled into a system, and that system can be automated, then you’re not the value, you were the prototype.

@PaulPhoenix2010

Imagine thinking that the people in charge of the actual jobs are going to assist you to implement the AI that it's going to replace what you do, there is a huge disconnect in this approach

@merlingrim2843

I started an IT resourcing company and I discovered pretty quick that people stop looking for work once they get a job

@dankelly4407

Don't bother speeding up the jobs. Rethink the value the organization delivers to customers and work back from that. AI should add value to the customer deliverable, not the staff.

@PiyushAggarwalConsulting

One of the most important thing for every company is to break down everything they do in terms of skills & tasks that create value and segment them under only human and only AI tasks.

@Raelven

Lost me at 26:12 Obviously, the meetings he refers to were badly run, inside a badly run organization. 

Having facilitated and participated in 40 years worth of meetings, as an executive admin, I say with confidence, the purpose of meetings is not a CYA party meant to "share responsibility for a decision across the board".

I love how the tech gurus say " AI hallucinates", when the unreal assertions almost always are clearly coming from the humans. Come on dudes, keep up with your own origin story.

@NikoKun

Acting like the average person just needs to change their mindset or become more of an entrepreneur.. Is sadly a privileged dismissal of the scale of the problem our society soon faces thanks to AI.

@BasicBusiness123

Another great episode. Very interesting to hear Ian’s thoughts about encoding employees knowledge into AI. I’d like to think that there will be checks and balances in place that protect workers but have a difficult time believing that… it’s going to be an interesting time and important for people to understand the relationship with the data they create and give to these AIs!

@benjaminmiller3075

These executives have no idea how disposable they are

@El_Capitano_O

By the way, I can add to the predictions…as there will be more startups, the Corporate will be much bigger with M&A as they wait when those startups are ready enough to be taken over. 

And That was literally a MasterClass of the future of Project Management 🔥 and to be honest I watched it twice and AI prompted so much based on the transcript I extracted from this. Really THANK YOU 🙏

@stalefeeling

Pushing the boundaries on these common workplace mindsets and making roles feel more impactful is such an interesting view and honestly holds some great insights. Good episode as always! Loving this podcast already!

@mtjoy747

If AI can write code, programmers are redundant, if it can "read" several thousand books on law, and come up with the right answers in a courtroom, lawyers are redundant...if robotics can for example be couriers or pizza delivery etc, any job that involves physical activity, then your blue collar are redundant, and "thinking" jobs, your white collar are redundant, end result 99% AI and robotics doing previously human jobs.
