    For the next CIN The Pulse session, get ready for an intriguing discussion with Linda Brooks-Rix, co-CEO of AVUE and CompTIA’s James Stanger. Linda is a recognized authority regarding federal human capital management and has been a resource for the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Journal, the Huffington Post, and members of the United States Congress. Over the years, she has implemented technical and AI solutions for the U.S. federal government. She will share her experiences with AI implementation. Linda and James will investigate the rapidly-shifting value shifts that are taking place today in the face of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). In their conversation, they will draw lessons from Linda’s experiences, and use case studies to outline:

    • Forces that have been in motion for decades, and what they mean to AI and AGI
    • Perceptions about the ‘shunning / tioning’ of the workforce
    • The ramifications of AGI, and the most advanced technology we can provide as humans
    • Why organizations “backtrack” on their AI implementations, and how this can be avoided
    • How not all jobs will disappear, but every job will change
    • Durable skills we can hone in the age of AI/AGI
    • How tomorrow’s techs can negotiate the inevitable

    An interesting topic, and one that truly interests me, given I'm now on the sidelines of workforce development through retirement. Of particular interest is the bulleted item: "How not all jobs will disappear, but every job will change."

    I've made a point of periodically reviewed the content of the r/layoffs sub-reddit forum just to see how people that have had the misfortune of loosing their job feel about the impact of AI in the workplace. Many of the postings were from people in the technology field, and to some extent they blame AI.
