The practitioner's view

AI doesn't take your job. It slices tasks out of it.

The useful question was never "will AI replace me?" It's which parts of the job are narrow and repeatable enough to hand over, and which parts still need a person in the room. That split is the whole book.

  • Judgement calls under uncertainty
  • Trust and relationships

Has anything in the AI chapter changed since the book came out?
CuriousGPT: The core framework still holds, task-slicing rather than job replacement. What's moved is the pace: agentic tools now handle multi-step workflows the book only flagged as "coming soon."
