What do you honestly think jobs will look like in 2050 with AI and automation advancing so rapidly? Are we heading towards a future where human work is unrecognizable—or something else entirely?

As AI and AGI advance, I can’t help but wonder: what are the real futures of work we should be preparing for?

Lately, I’ve been reading about different visions of the future of work in an age dominated by AI and potential AGI.

One future is a dystopian scenario where rising inequality and workplace suppression get worse, wages stagnate, […]
