""In weak-bundle occupations, AI automates some tasks and narrows the boundary of the job... In strong-bundle occupations... AI improves performance inside the job, but does not remove the human from the bundle.""
""Jobs aren't neat lists of tasks - they're bundles. Radiologists, for example, don't just read scans. They interpret edge cases, talk to clinicians, and sign off on decisions people act on.""
AI is gradually transforming jobs by automating specific tasks rather than eliminating entire positions. The distinction between 'weak bundles' and 'strong bundles' is crucial; weak bundles can be easily split, while strong bundles maintain their value when tasks are automated. For example, in weak-bundle jobs, AI reshapes roles, leaving humans to focus on tasks machines cannot perform. This shift may seem beneficial, but it often results in humans narrowing their responsibilities and losing the broader scope of their original roles.
