This was interesting. But I wonder how this relates in industries where AIs are emerging as power players.

So good! I think this is one of those reads I will revisit. Also a great rebuttal to this: https://www.danhock.co/p/generalist-disease/comments.

You miss an alternative: opt out of the constant need for upwards and upwards.

Definitely subscribe to opting out of the rat race. Take this more as a self reflection vs competition.

It can be scary when you get on a place professionally where you feel stuck and do not know how to move forward (or up)

This put in words a lot of thoughts I had.

Thanks!

An idea to #Jenni Jang, ( Impromptu )

Under utilised knowledge is not Biodegradable. Aimlessly running for knowledge, gives results of a treadmill.

Turn knowledge leaves, each moment. Giving is easy, to be ready and to receive in the same very moment of time, becomes the next giving. The pendulum of knowledge, has to, shall and will go on, with you, without you,inyspite of you.

Love this! Finally, being a multipotentialite is going to be viewed as a valuable skill.

Excellent read! Technology is moving at a breakneck pace, and the emphasis on learning and beginner’s mindset is so important. I also loved the emphasis on building a skill set rather than focusing on title. Thanks for these great insights!
