**TL;DR** - Wide-ranging editorial on societal implications of AI acceleration: what near future looks like if capabilities continue on this curve.
The 10-Second Pitch
Economic displacement timeline compressing - 5 years, not 20
Skills AI cannot replace (judgment, accountability, trust) are ones we are not training for
Policy responses moving at speed of regulatory cycles, not technology cycles
Setup in 3 Steps
1. Read serious critiques alongside optimistic takes - both needed
2. Identify which of your professional skills compounding with AI vs being substituted by it
3. Companies that navigate this best thinking 5 years out, not 5 quarters
**Example Prompt:**
Write a framework for evaluating which job categories most and least exposed to AI automation over a 3-year horizon.
