Many people perceive automation and artificial intelligence within the enterprise as job killers. Instead, I argue that AI -- and digital employees in particular -- open up new opportunities for learning cutting-edge, higher-value and higher-paying skills. Take, for example, some of the more recent research from the McKinsey Global Institute on the Future of Work, which includes this statement: "Millions of jobs with a high share of automatable tasks could be phased out in the decade ahead. Others will be created, more than making up for those losses in many scenarios -- although they may be different occupations located in different places." I've often put forward that we're rapidly approaching a time when humans and digital employees will fuse into a hybrid workforce, fundamentally transforming how we live and work.
