OPENAI
The corporate ladder has a USB port
Two OpenAI employees have shared their predictions for how AI could change the workplace, including how people work, who manages teams, and what happens to jobs.
In a new essay, they describe three ways AI could become part of companies as the technology improves.
The authors suggest AI could take on three different roles:
Employees manage AI tools that handle everyday tasks, giving people more time to focus on bigger responsibilities.
AI works alongside human employees, taking on projects or even running entire teams under human supervision.
AI helps oversee employees, checks their work, spots problems, and advises company leaders.

The essay also looks at how AI could affect salaries, hiring, and the size of companies.
The authors believe AI could cut down on paperwork, give employees more freedom, and help smaller teams get more done.
However, it could also lead to closer monitoring of workers and give senior managers more control.
These are predictions rather than certain outcomes, but the authors expect companies to use a mix of all three approaches as AI improves.
