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

Memory is (almost) solved. time is next.
AI can't tell if a memory is two minutes or two weeks old. The fix isn't making models feel time — it's cache invalidation: an as-of stamp on every fact, a clock in the context, and a freshness window for anything volatile.
