Join the newsletter: https://alphawork.substack.com--For the last three years, we were told the same story: AI is coming for every white-collar job, software engineers are obsolete, and bots will run companies on autopilot. But inside real enterprises, that narrative is falling apart.Companies that laid off workers to chase full AI automation are quietly reversing course—dealing with what analysts call the "AI Boomerang" effect. In this video, we break down why enterprise AI automation failed, how an 1800s economic principle explains why human builders are becoming *more* valuable, and the 3-step playbook you can use right now to build career alpha over the next 18–24 months.--🔗 RESOURCES & LINKS:Join the newsletter: https://alphawork.substack.comGitHub: https://github.com/argonlabs23/workst...--OUR PARTNERS:- Granola: New users get 100% off for their first month (https://go.granola.ai/workstak) - Wispr Flow: New users get a 30-day Pro trial instead of the standard 14 days.
