Someone Else Can Do That

  • The risks posed by implementing AI in the work world are complex – Sara Weber takes a constructive look at them
  • How can we make sure that everyone really benefits from AI in their everyday work?

Artificial intelligence is already coordinating stock levels in warehouses, preparing presentations, and diagnosing tumors. And this is just the beginning. It’s a well-established fact at this point that AI has the potential to bring about major change not only in the private sphere but also in the world of work – a significant and very concerning transition, but one that has come at exactly the right time.

Considering the prevalence of exhaustion combined with the increasing labor shortage, we urgently need solutions that go beyond “if everyone does just a little bit more…”  Yet the longing for relief is coupled with concern that AI will make us completely redundant. In reality, however, we are all more necessary than ever in this age of AI. What’s certain is that the future of work is in our own hands.

Sara Weber is convinced that AI doesn’t only pose risks: we need to learn from our past mistakes and set the right political course now. Because, in the end, AI is just a tool. If we use it for positive and just change, we can work better than ever before.
