There's a bigger argument because most of the ways that they would estimate what the impact would be is based on previous waves. of change, and perhaps the data there is not a good enough predictor of what's coming in the future.

Well, you see the kind of challenge with doing that. There might be new jobs being created, right? There definitely will be. There are loads of philosophers now being hired by big companies to help them think through these kind of questions that might come up. So it's, yeah, it's a huge topic.

I just feel that as individuals, the more we understand the technology, the more we use it, the more we learn about it, the more prepared you are to influence that change as well, whether as a consumer, you know, as an employee, as a citizen as well. Yeah.

No, absolutely. And again, they have the same actual trade-off that the C-suite executives have, right? Because arguably there's a huge case to be made for how you use AI in the public sector, which definitely needs improvements in terms of efficiency and services that need to be provided to people. So the opportunity there is huge.

But then how do you kind of balance that with what it means for jobs? And arguably they have, so they have double the role to play in the sense of both balancing that as the public sector, but also in terms of the policymakers within that doing, you know, thinking about that for the whole economy.

Well, I think for one thing, I think the whole topic of artificial intelligence definitely has more room. There's a lot of discussion around this being hype and so on. And of course, there's always a little bit of hype when something new comes into the forefront, right? So there is, but the opportunity is definitely there. It's huge. You see some companies appointing chief AI officers now.

into the C-suite board. So in the same way that in the past, if we look at the topic of sustainability, used to be one person doing what was called CSR back then that no one used to take seriously to now someone, whole teams focusing on how organizations can deliver on those goals. So something similar is happening with AI.

I think what people worry about a lot, individuals, is this idea of general artificial intelligence. So this technology being able to completely replicate what we are as humans. But there's just so much that needs to happen for us to get there that I think we won't be around ourselves to discuss that.

Yeah, but I think it's kind of find that balance as an individual, as a leader, as a team member, whoever you might be, whatever role or hat you might be wearing. What's next is finding that balance between making the most of the growth opportunity that is definitely there. The stuff that these technologies can do, they can just create new content in seconds. We know this.

But how can you make sure that you do that in a way that's forward thinking enough that you don't get caught out by some of the risks or challenges, other issues around that?
