There are 3 modules in this course

Welcome to the course! In this module, we will begin with an overview of this third course in the Navigating Disruption series, Generative AI Integration: Effects on Labor and Workforce. After considering your workplace's readiness for AI, we'll explore AI impacts on jobs broadly and what we should expect to see. Let’s get started!

What's included

2 videos3 readings1 discussion prompt

In this module, we begin by considering the traditional value and work of white-collar jobs. Through understanding the value and outputs of white-collar jobs, we will then evaluate the ways in which AI will destabilize previously "safe" jobs. Armed with these evaluations, we'll ponder the question: are knowledge workers replaceable, and if so, what would the look like?

In this final module, we'll examine the changing dynamics in the workplace that must be re-evaluated with the adoption of AI. We'll review AI policies from a variety of industries, and utilize these as the inspiration for drafting our own AI policies. You'll close this course by sharing your AI policy with your peers, and then by considering what the past tells us about our present reliance on and use of AI in our workplaces.
