Has anyone else suddenly found their workplace is moving really fast on AI? I feel like I’ve almost been in a mini revolution. 3
months ago it was quite sporadic use with people using copilot as an extended search engine. Now, everyone is using it all the time to help draft content, write emails, get advice etc. The speed of change has been really interesting to me. Culturally there used to be a hesitancy at first that you might be cheating by getting copilot to write a letter or a briefing note whereas now it’s normal practice to use it at least in part. Notes are all done via transcription. I worry that junior roles look pretty vulnerable already. The things that I’d have got a new grad to do like minute taking, summarising documents can be replaced very easily by AI. My own skill set feels under threat as well.
AIBU to ask if others have found the same in their organisations? My other worry is that the school curriculum has not adapted at all. The world of work seems to be changing very rapidly and we’re still drilling 10 year olds on fronted adverbials or setting exams that are based on recall of facts.
