> At some point we might even create ourselves AI alter egos—digital counterparts that represent us in meetings we can’t attend, negotiate on our behalf, resolve issues, and even handle parts of our workload.
Does it mean you're removing creativity and feelings from negotiation? AIs are so logical that another AI would probably be able to predict their counterpart next move until the end, making the whole negociation process pointless.
Well, if we think about it, a negotiation is about fulfilling two sets of conditions to a certain extent. If the AI understands what are the conditions we're willing to accept and what is off the table, they could very well carry out the negotiation. If two AIs negotiate, it would be pretty fast indeed. That's not necessarily a bad thing if you have a large number of deals to be closed. I'm thinking something along the lines of smart contracts running in the background than two robots sitting at a table.
AI makes business easier, but also lonelier. Are we ready for that trade-off?
The biggest challenge ahead isn’t just building AI-powered systems. It’s controlling them, securing them, and making sure we don’t lose ourselves in the process.
This is an excellent overview of the future of work. Thanks for sharing.
In a recent practical sci-fi story, I explored a future where competitive edges are trained, not built, and swarms of company-issued AI agents turn teamwork into a one-human show.
Given your understanding of the topic, how confident are you about your timeline prediction for this shift?
