Josh Drean: 我认为传统的就业模式已经过时,它对雇主、管理层和一线员工都不利。一线员工往往为了安全感而从事自己讨厌的工作。年轻一代对工作的期望与上一代不同,他们更看重工作中的意义和灵活性,而不是单纯的安全感和高薪。传统的就业模式(工业时代建立的)已不再适用信息时代和AI时代,我们需要更灵活、更敏捷的模式。 我们这本书《就业已死》并非意味着AI将取代所有工作,而是传统就业模式已无法满足现代职场需求。我们需要重新找回工作中的成就感和意义感,让工作与个人激情相结合。 “工作”和“就业”并非同义词,我们需要区分两者,并重新定义工作的意义。人类天生具有勤劳的本性,但传统的就业模式剥夺了他们发挥才能的机会。去中心化的工作模式(例如Discord)将赋予员工更多自主权和灵活性,使员工能够专注于自己热爱的事情,并获得相应的报酬。新一代的年轻人更倾向于创造自己的价值,而不是仅仅为公司打工。 企业应该关注如何激励员工,而不是仅仅关注如何“运作”员工。企业需要理解年轻一代的需求,并提供相应的激励机制。去中心化自治组织(DAO)是一种基于智能合约的组织形式,它能够根据员工的贡献进行公平的补偿。DAO利用工具如Snapshot实现实时投票和决策,并根据贡献分配代币,实现更公平的激励机制。一些企业坚持传统的管理模式,是出于对权力和控制的渴望,但这并不能长久。企业需要适应变化,提供更灵活的工作模式,才能留住人才。企业需要改变对“传统”工作模式的刻板印象,才能吸引和留住人才。年轻一代更注重贡献与回报的平衡,他们需要基于贡献的薪酬体系,而不是传统的固定薪酬。 AI的出现是必然趋势,人们应该积极学习并适应AI技术,而不是惧怕它。AI技术将改变很多工作岗位,但人们应该学习如何利用AI技术提高效率,而不是被AI取代。人们应该学习如何利用AI技术提高效率,并提升自身技能,以适应未来的工作需求。未来的工作需要满足员工对灵活性和自主性的需求,并提供基于贡献的激励机制。企业应该关注员工体验,提供良好的工作环境和公平的激励机制,才能在未来的竞争中获胜。以人为本的企业文化将成为未来企业竞争的关键。 Dan Turchin: 我不认为将AI视为威胁,而应该将其视为解决全球问题的工具。拥抱创新是成功的关键,我们应该积极拥抱AI技术,而不是惧怕它。我们不应该将AI视为威胁,而应该将其视为解决全球问题的工具。
