Part 8/12:
The impact on industries will be profound. Already, AI is transforming the job market, eliminating many administrative positions and enabling highly skilled workers to become exponentially more productive. Companies are restructuring—reducing human hiring and integrating AI into their core operations—creating efficiency gains of 25x or more.
For example, organizations are developing AI systems that can fully automate repeatable tasks, essentially replacing entire tiers of human roles. As AI becomes more capable, there will be new job categories around AI supervision and management, and economic power may begin to concentrate in these AI-driven capabilities, altering the landscape of wealth and influence.
