41:32Now PlayingLynn Parramore and Alissa Quart wrote an excellent article for The New Republic on (so-called) AI in the workforce. The headline reads, “For White-Collar Workers, AI Also Stands for “‘Apocalyptic Insecurity.’” The article’s emphasis on the subjective human experience of AI in the workplace gives us a valuable contribution to the AI debate.
Our topics included the psychological dread of “terra infirma”; software’s inability to provide the “final 1 percent” that comprises high-quality work; and the inhumanity of forcing people to participate in their own obsolescence by training the machines that will replace them.
