It's interesting because AI on its face, of course, would seem to threaten some jobs.
And of course it can.
But I also hear from some CEOs who say we needed some time to...
to kind of assess the capabilities and shortcomings of artificial intelligence.
And some of those businesses have actually concluded that they need more humans in the coming year, not fewer.
I'm thinking of an accounting firm like Shellman, which is based in Tampa, Florida.
They've got about 550 people right now.
And their CEO Avni Desai told me she actually discovered they needed to hire seven people to do AI prompts.
They're prompt engineers.
They basically specialize in getting the most out of the AI software.
And she's also looking to add another 35 people in the first half of this year and all kinds of roles, administration, accounting, finance.
leadership coaching, basically saying, look, AI has a lot of potential.
It's going to be an efficiency for us down the line.
But right now, it's actually costing us more to invest in AI than it is saving us money on the other end.
So I don't know how comforting that is to listeners.
Maybe AI is coming for the job at some point.
But in the shorter run, I hear from some companies saying, actually, we still need to staff up.
It's that and it's also in the job search process itself.
Can AI become more of an ally to you?
When I talk to job seekers about AI, it's usually in the form of a complaint about, oh, the AI just threw my resume into a black hole.
