Description

If history has taught us anything, it’s that when certain jobs are erased, there's a new wave of jobs on the horizon, says technologist Vlad Tenev. He offers hope for those worried about being replaced by AI (whether you’re well into your career or just getting started), suggesting that work disruptions are an essential quality of human progress. From hunter-gatherers to social media influencers, he shows why careers of the future may look like leisure from the present viewpoint — but that doesn’t mean there won’t be work to go around.
