   Expert Panel: AI & Human Expertise

   In this episode of Work Rewired, we bring you a thought-provoking panel discussion from the Reshaping Work Conference 2024 in Amsterdam, chaired by Isabel Berwick of the Financial Times. The panel features leading voices from academia, industry, and the creative world: Lior Zalmanson (Tel Aviv University), Roger Werkhoven (creative director and AI pioneer), Anastasia Sergeeva (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam), and Claire Lebarz (Chief Data & AI Officer at Malt). Together, they explore pressing questions at the intersection of AI and expertise: Which human skills will remain indispensable in an AI-driven world? What new forms of expertise will emerge alongside intelligent systems? How do we balance trust and overreliance on AI, and what does this mean for creativity, management, and professional judgment? The discussion ranges from AI’s role in reconfiguring expert work in fields such as hiring, agriculture, and policing, to its impact on creative industries and the rise of “super adopters” who are shaping the future of jobs. The panel also considers how technology design choices influence critical thinking, trust, and the value of human judgment. Whether you are a researcher, business leader, or professional coping with rapid workplace changes, this episode offers fresh insights into how we can harness AI while preserving, and redefining, the essence of human expertise.

   Rob Seamans: Transforming Jobs in the Age of AI

   In this episode of Work Rewired, we sit down with Rob Seamans, Professor at NYU Stern School of Business and leading expert on technology, innovation, and AI policy. With years of research on how emerging technologies shape the economy, Rob offers a clear-eyed view on the myths and realities of artificial intelligence in the workplace. We unpack how AI is set to transform jobs - not replace them. Rob explains his “three buckets” framework: some jobs may disappear, many will evolve, and entirely new ones will be created. He also highlights the rise of new roles such as AI integrators, auditors, and explainers, alongside the enduring importance of human skills like communication, empathy, and negotiation. The conversation explores what companies need to do to remain competitive, from investing in AI integration to reskilling their workforce. We also discuss why adoption rates remain low, the ethical responsibilities of businesses, and how AI could both widen and bridge inequalities in the global economy. Whether you’re a policymaker, business leader, or professional navigating workplace change, this episode will give you valuable insights into the future of jobs, skills, and human potential in an AI-driven world.
