The geopolitical and economic fallout that lies ahead could be profound. Some forecasts suggest that as much as 75% of today’s jobs could be significantly impacted or replaced by automation by 2028. Whether that figure ultimately proves accurate or not, the underlying trend is undeniable: AI-driven automation is advancing at a pace that society has never experienced before. During the Industrial Revolution, the disruption was gradual, relatively predictable, and measurable. Industries transformed over decades, giving ecommunities and institutions time however imperfectly to adapt.
The AI revolution may be fundamentally different. We could see a transition that happens almost like a light switch: entire departments replaced seemingly overnight by systems capable of operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week, without fatigue, benefits, or the limitations of a human work schedule.
The question we need to be asking is not simply, “What jobs will AI replace?” It is, “What happens to civil society when millions of people lose not only their livelihoods, but also the sense of identity, purpose, and stability that employment provides?”
History tells us that periods of profound economic disruption can produce unpredictable social and political reactions. Knee jerk responses are inevitable. You need to be prepared to interpret react and pivot to that knee jerk reaction.
The objective isn’t to predict every outcome. It’s to be prepared to interpret, react, and pivot when the changes occur.
