Episode notes
Jobs Are Systemic, Not Task Bundles
- Jobs are not fixed bundles of tasks but parts of broader systems of work, organizations, and competitive ecosystems.
- AI reshapes jobs by changing competition and organizational priorities, not only by automating tasks.
Three Sources Of Job Value
- Value in a job splits into intrinsic, economic, and contextual components that can move independently under AI.
- High intrinsic value doesn't guarantee pay or agency if economic or contextual value declines.
AI's Biggest Power Is Coordination
- The biggest power of AI is improving coordination across actors, not just automating processes.
- Transformative technologies change the whole system by enabling new ways for multiple actors to coordinate and create value together.
