AI in the Workforce: Stop Asking If It Will Take Your Job—Ask How It Can Make Your Job Better
Here’s the thing about the “Will AI take my job?” conversation: we’re asking the wrong question. It’s like asking whether a calculator will replace an accountant. Sure, it handles the arithmetic, but that just means the accountant can focus on analyzing trends, advising clients, and making strategic recommendations instead of adding up columns of numbers all day. The real question isn’t whether AI will replace workers—it’s whether we’re smart enough to deploy it in ways that actually help people do their jobs better.
When AI Replaces the Teacher: Why Connection Still Matters More Than Efficiency
AI can play an important role in advancing education, augmenting a teacher’s strengths and empowering students to overcome obstacles, solve problems and inspire a curiosity to dig deeper in their learning experience. But we can’t underestimate the importance of human connection in our educational experience. Because the most important human capabilities aren’t about being more creative or contrarian than machines. They’re about being empathetic, collaborative, ethical, and wise. They’re about developing the judgment to know when to trust technology and when to question it. They’re about learning to work with people who are different from you, to navigate ambiguity, and to persist through challenges that don’t have clear solutions. Those capabilities develop through relationship and community, not through individual optimization.

We’ve all felt the difference between being heard and being handled. Whether it’s a friend distracted by their phone or a chatbot spitting out generic responses, the result is the same: disengagement. Real listening—where someone picks up on what you meant, not just what you said—is rare, and powerful. But here’s the twist: AI doesn’t need to be human to offer that kind of recognition. It just needs to be designed to pay attention in the right ways. In this post, we explore what it really means to feel heard—and how emotionally intelligent AI can get closer to that ideal without being creepy, invasive, or fake.
