“It’s going to be fascinating to see how people incorporate this second brain into their job… This is technology that does a C+ job—for now—at mimicking tasks that are very common in white-collar jobs. That means that it can both make workers more productive and, over time, if not make their job obsolete, then [at least] change the kinds of jobs that are available to people in the future and the kinds of skills that are in demand.”
