Trying to keep up with AI right now can feel like a full-time job.

Every week brings a new tool, a new capability, a new prediction about which jobs will disappear, and new warnings about what could go wrong, like the one recently issued by a former Anthropic researcher, who warned that AI capabilities may be accelerating faster than our ability to reliably control increasingly powerful systems. 

Meanwhile, staff are experimenting, often on their own. Leaders are being pushed to develop policies, invest in tools, prepare their teams, and anticipate changes to the labor market, all while the technology itself keeps moving.

The pressure to “get AI right” can make it harder to figure out what your organization actually needs to do next.
