AI and jobs: February gave us a set of stories that show what’s changing right now, not in theory. AI is intensifying knowledge work instead of reducing it, HR teams are getting flooded with AI-generated grievances, and firms like Accenture are starting to treat AI usage as a promotion input. At the same time, we’re seeing early signs of AI organising human labour through platforms like Rent-a-Human.
And it’s not just office work. Autonomous trucking is now pushing past the limits of human driving hours, with Aurora claiming 1,000 miles in 15 hours. So this is what AI and jobs looks like in practice: shifting workloads, shifting expectations, and real operational change happening across very different kinds of work.
