The catastrophe will come primarily in the form of inequity.
There will be some who understand and take advantage, and naturally some of those will leverage that power over others.
The best version: we help knowledge workers understand how to use AI to make them more productive and useful.
The likely picture: we save on margin costs, then the next wave of knowledge workers have AI-collaboration as a core / native competency.
The left behind will be overshadowed by the success of the next wave, and we’ll call it a success as a society.
