Is AI about to take over knowledge work? And what does that mean for the rest of us?

 

In this episode of Being Human, I speak with Alastair Moore, AI strategist and co-founder of ventures helping organisations navigate the machine intelligence revolution. Alastair argues that we’ve already crossed a threshold: AI isn’t just assisting knowledge workers — it’s now performing tasks at the frontier of research, science, and complex problem-solving.

 

We explore how large models are reshaping entire categories of white-collar work, why organisations are unprepared for the acceleration curve, and what skills will matter in a world where cognition becomes a shared capability between humans and machines. This is a grounded, practical, and sometimes unsettling conversation about the next decade of work.

 

We discuss:

  • AI at the scientific frontier
  • Automation of knowledge work
  • Human–machine complementarities
  • Skills for the post-GPT economy
  • Links:
