AI tools lower barriers to expert work

Elon Musk and Geoffrey Hinton warn of an AI-driven job apocalypse.

MIT’s David Autor, one of the world’s leading thinkers on how technology reshapes work, says the real danger lies somewhere else.

The biggest risk of AI isn’t mass unemployment - it’s whether human skills and expertise will still matter.

David explains how AI could expand middle-class opportunity by lowering barriers to high-value work, why past technologies created more new jobs than they destroyed, and what we need to get right to make this moment a hopeful one.
