Remember COVID?

And we all thought we'd come out speaking three languages and baking bread, and we all came out mildly alcoholic and anxious.

Speak for yourself.

I'm speaking generally, but yes, myself as well.

You know, I think it's a bit of a misnomer to think that we're all going to be sitting around.

In fact, a lovely gentleman at a conference once said to me, do you think we'll return to the land of saints and scholars?

And I was like, that would be beautiful.

But the idea that we're just all sitting around like in the Greek days, you know,

Playing the harp and doing watercolors.

I'm not entirely sure.

There is data now to show that AI actually makes us more productive at work because it's driving us harder.

We're more accountable to it.

I don't think any organization is going to sort of pay people the same amount of money for a full day's work for three hours because they used AI.

We don't have a model for this new way of working yet.

It's a bit tongue-in-cheek, for sure.

Who are they?

Are we talking about the tech companies?

I can't see it, to be honest.

However, I'm not going to rule it out entirely because none of us know.

I think at the moment we can only see a little bit further ahead.
