And I don't think we're quite ready for the level of disruption that's coming on that.
So that's point one.
I'm actually quite optimistic at the level of, will there be jobs for entry-level white-collar workers?
Almost certainly, to me, in any conceivable world.
It might mean that our labour market has to be a lot more flexible because individual firms will rise and fall more quickly.
But I don't buy the narrative that there'll be no jobs.
I do think things will have to change a lot.
There is this narrative that...
Oh, you know, like we don't need so... I wasn't a lawyer, thank goodness.
But, you know, we don't need so many junior lawyers to read through everything.
Paralegals, management consultants.
And then how do we train the next generation?
I feel this is a slightly weird like failure of imagination.
Like there's like so much of professional services is actually about things that...
may always be human, certainly will be human for a long time.
Things like trust, authenticity, legitimacy.
These things are not going to go away.
And the way that if we were trying to design from first principles a way to learn how to convey those things, it wouldn't be by reading thousands of pages of legal docs.
That's just how we do it today.
I'm very sceptical that that's going to remain legal.
