AI is the New Calculator (And It Won't Steal Your Job)

Is AI coming for your job? According to 25-year product veteran Ben Foster, we've seen this movie before. This video explains why AI is the New Calculator (And It Won't Steal Your Job).

This is a masterclass on the future of product management and knowledge work. You'll learn why AI's greatest strength is in analysis, not true creativity, and why the most critical skill in the next decade will be your human judgment to know when the AI is right and when it's wrong.
