The Human Side of AI: The Efficiency Trap
In this WeShareTalent session, we will discuss the impact of generative AI on the working lives of knowledge workers. What will this mean for the future of work, and what choices lie ahead for organizations and leaders?As technological capabilities of AI advance at lightning speed, it has the potential to support, replace and enrich our work in now still unthinkable ways. Already, current (Harvard business school) research shows how AI is transforming knowledge work. With consultants using ChatGPT outperforming those who did not by a lot, on every dimension of performance.* (*12.2% more tasks on average, 25.1% more quickly, 40% higher quality results)
These advantages are big enough to disrupt the way we work and think. Will it turn us into ‘centaurs and cyborgs’?
Apart from technological challenges, the rise of AI poses fundamental and philosophical questions for organizations and leaders. In the best scenario, AI will generate an enormous potential and create space in our working days by eliminating work.
What will we do with this space? How will we use it?
Jorien will elaborate on the risk of not consciously arriving at an answer to this question. discussing the ‘Efficiency Trap’, a term inspired on the thinking about ecological sustainability. Stating that more efficiency, without conscious and deliberate choice, can often lead to higher usage, faster depletion of resources, and ultimately more stress.
How do we make AI work for us to create a (working) world that is more human, instead of losing ourselves in the Efficiency Trap?
