The unpredictable impact of AI
Explore how AI's unpredictable impact on the workforce may widen wage inequality and affect job diversity, challenging traditional employment dynamics.
“For example, while the broad shift toward remote work could help promote diversity with more flexible hiring, I see the increasing use of AI as likely to have the opposite effect. Black and Hispanic workers are overrepresented in the 30 occupations with the highest exposure to automation and underrepresented in the 30 occupations with the lowest exposure. While AI might help workers get more done in less time, and this increased productivity could increase wages of those employed, it could lead to a severe loss of wages for those whose jobs are displaced. A 2021 paper found that wage inequality tended to increase the most in countries in which companies already relied a lot on robots and that were quick to adopt the latest robotic technologies."—History suggests we can’t predict how AI will affect the workforce
Why customer tools are organized wrong
This article reveals a fundamental flaw in how customer support tools are designed—organizing by interaction type instead of by customer—and explains why this fragmentation wastes time and obscures the full picture you need to help users effectively.
Infrastructure shapes thought
The tools you build determine what kinds of thinking become possible. On infrastructure, friction, and building deliberately for thought rather than just throughput.

The first real user breaks everything
Your product works until someone actually uses it. The gap between 'works in dev' and 'works for a person' is where most systems fail — and most organizations avoid looking.
The loop nobody bothers to close
Most systems observe. Almost none learn. The difference is a feedback loop — and the boring cleanup work that makes it possible.
Your process was built for a different speed
When work changes velocity, governance systems don't just fall behind. They become theater. And theater is worse than nothing—it gives you the feeling of control without any of the substance.
