SUMMARY:Thriving with Careers: Exciting Updates to BUiLT Events and Membership
DESCRIPTION:AI is eliminating jobs and transforming most of the rest. And what about us humans? An MIT study raises concerns that AI tools may hinder critical thinking and promote passive acceptance of algorithm-driven content. \nHave you heard … BUiLT is pivoting to 1) ensure you stay relevant in your careers\, 2) that you find great career opportunities\, and 3) that you find the best talent for your teams. \nMeet and hear the BUiLT leadership team’s plans on: \n\nUpcoming training and certification program on enhancing our human skills to stay ahead of AI job elimination\nBadging and credential programs\nWhere to find BUiLT’s events\nLocal programming for your area\n\nWe’ll have a 30-minute presentation and then open the floor. \nAsk us anything about how we are pivoting to meet your needs. \nRemaining Human\nStrategic\, creative\, and supervisory positions are more resistant to AI-driven elimination because they rely on human judgment\, emotional intelligence\, contextual awareness\, and innovation—areas where AI still struggles or lacks the flexibility and trust needed.\nTo thrive in an AI-driven tech workforce\, professionals must enroll in programs to enhance “uniquely human” competencies\, trainable through targeted learning.
