Let's explore Shapeshifting. That very human talent to change and adapt with curiosity and exploration. How will we adapt to artificial intelligence, especially in a job market that suddenly looks VERY different? "GPTs on GPTS" the report from OpenAI, OpenLabs Research and the University of Pennsylvania gives very interesting insight into the jobs that will impacted - hundreds of them - from 19% exposure to 100%. Tax assessors don't do too well. 100% replacement and 50% faster.

But sometimes, we're not interested in exploring or being curious or learning. We just want to get by. I've got some bad news for those of you who just want to chill. This is not the time to do that. We're giving birth to AI at the moment. The world is pushing and straining, and it's going to come whether we want it or not. I mentioned that we get caught in a rut. That's not my job. That's not how this job should be. This isn't what I planned for. I don't understand this person. Why do I have to be the one to find common ground? Why do I have to work with AI?

I have a long and boring list of jobs that are impacted by AI/ChatGPT and how to pivot and adapt. Skip that part.

We look at Underemployment in Australia due to AI: a single person jobsharing with AI and 9 other people won't be enough hours. Roy Morgan report on underemployment (currently at 17.1%) is more comprehensive than ABS unemployment (3.4%). Those numbers are about to skyrocket.

I hope this episode has given you some thoughts about how to copilot with AI, how to move through this next phase with curiosity and wonderment rather than fear and trepidation, understanding that maybe your job will never be the same again. But that's okay, because there's a new approach, a new way of doing things that'll be interesting and keep you engaged.

Resources on my website laurelpapworth.com/alchemy as well as my AI Is My CoPilot course (in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Canberra and Virtual) please go to the Australian Institute of Management website if interested: please don't do my course unless it suits but please please please, do SOME education on AI. This thing is moving FAST.
