The AI Skills Gap Is Here: Why Power Users Are Pulling Away From Everyone Else — Fast

Reflect w/ Ed Fassio — where AI tells the stories that matter. AI isn't replacing jobs yet. But it IS creating two classes of worker — inside the same companies, same teams, same job titles — and the gap is widening every single week. Anthropic's research confirms it: power users are compressing 8-hour workflows into 2. Right next to them, casual users do occasional prompts and get occasional results. Same job description. Same paycheck. Completely different trajectory. The Dallas Federal Reserve's early labor market data shows the split in real numbers. The window to get on the right side is still open — but it's not wide open. And the uncomfortable truth: the skills gap isn't a technology problem. It's a culture problem. Power users built their edge on their own time, without their manager's encouragement. Your Move: One task. Thirty minutes this week. That's where the power user journey starts. — Reflect w/ Ed Fassio | reflectpodcast.comSend us Fan Mail Support the showLISTEN TO MORE EPISODES: https://www.reflectpodcast.com
