I don’t know which jobs AI is going to replace, but I know one thing for sure : people who don’t know how to learn will be replaced much faster than people who do.
When you think about it, the ability to learn is nothing more than the power to adapt to new circumstances.
So, if you are worried about AI :
- make learning a daily habit (don’t wait for your company to pay for training, it’s your responsibility)
- invest in learning how to learn (or metacognition) – this will kill the “illusion of learning” and make sure you know when you’re really learning and when you’re wasting your time talking with ChatGPT
Two tiny habits that work for me:
- quiz yourself daily – flashcard apps (like Anki) are great for that
- at the end of your day, open a blank document, ask yourself, “What did I learn today ?” and write about it.
