34: Robots for All!

34: Robots for All!

00:00

After last week's suggestion that the robots are indeed coming, the
Priority team considers them more broadly: what does increasing automation
mean for our work?

Caitie embraces automation: Google Calendar, systematic emails, and prompts
that keep her world in order. But Max suggests that his long-hand project
management isn't tedious, per se, by comparison. Maybe it's more
thoughtful, forcing him to slow down when he considers his work. 

So the robots have their perks and limitations, but the team wonders
whether and how automation might stymie growth. If we don't have to pay
attention to certain skills, what will happen to them? And our jobs? Okay,
so the robots are already here, but perhaps we can figure out how to live
in peace with these not-so-futuristic friends.
