🎙 What if the most prestigious professions — law, medicine, finance — are actually the first in line for automation?In this episode, we break down the thought-provoking article The End of Prestige, which flips the usual narrative. While most worry about AI replacing delivery drivers or customer service reps, it’s already quietly taking over the work of Big Law attorneys and top-tier doctors.We kick things off with a stunning story: a senior law firm partner skips the junior associates and runs a complex legal query through an AI tool. In 45 seconds, he gets a more comprehensive result than a team of humans could produce in days. Those bright young lawyers — the ones who took on massive student debt just for this kind of work — never even touched the case. And no, this isn’t an exception. It’s the new normal.🧠 In this episode, we dive into:The “high-skill trap” and why it makes top jobs vulnerableHow AI is unbundling professions, task by task — starting with the most profitable partsReal-world examples: Allen & Overy, Mayo Clinic, and BlackRockWhy prestige is no longer a shield against disruptionThe looming collapse of higher education and credential valueMost importantly: how to adapt if you’re aiming for a future in elite fields💥 This isn’t a conversation about the distant future.
