Today on The AI Daily Brief, Nathaniel Whittemore explores new research revealing which jobs people actually want AI to automate—and which they find morally off-limits. Drawing on studies from Stanford and Harvard, he maps where AI capability meets human preference, showing how workers and the public diverge on what tasks should be handed to machines. The episode goes beyond fear or hype to outline a nuanced “automation morality map” that helps explain where society is ready for AI, where it isn’t, and what that means for the future of work. Plus, in the headlines: Google’s token usage hits 1.3 quadrillion per month, Meta makes another billion-dollar AI hire, XAI moves into world models, and China escalates its chip war.
