Staying future-focused in no easy task, especially with the pace of change, largely driven by advanced technology. This week is no exception, but hopefully this weekly update will help you stay ten steps ahead.

Four things in particular came to my attention this week. (Special thanks to those of you who send stuff my way).
Open AI Chipset? - Sam Altman is trying to rise 7 Trillion (yes, Trillion with a 7), so OpenAI can break its way into the chip (and I'm not talking doritos) industry. And, this move is more than just a diversifying the portfolio move.
Is AI Driving Layoffs - It's a question on everyone's mind and all the news of companies going through round after round of layoffs isn't helping the situation. While AI has a role, it's probably not a simple as it is often presented.
A BS in AI? - The new trend in higher education is to roll out new degree programs in the field of artificial intelligence. That's leaving many professionals and parents wondering if it's the right move to get ahead. You may want to listen to my response before filling out your FAFSA.
LinkedIn In-Demand Skills - Despite all the hype around AI and technical capabilities, the skills companies are most in dire need of right now won't show up on the BS in AI curriculum. Does that mean we can just keep doing what we've always done and be fine? Not quite.
