Last week, I helped facilitate a meeting of AI industry with gov agencies thinking about the national implications of AI adoption. That 2-day conversation made me think that a strong focus on teaching specific tool use is maybe misguided. More here: https://uncertaintymindset.substack.com/p/49-the-work-of-uncertainty

Nice work, thank you for sharing. I'm not sure that I'd agree that exploitation of the worker is to the advantage of the employer though; maybe only in those standardised positions? Also, am I right in thinking that "negotiated joining" is your concept, and no-one else has picked it up in the last seven or so years?

in the long term, high-value people tend not to stick around when they're exploited — i was just trying to say that standardised positions are filled by employees who lack the market power to resist exploitation
