""One of the things we are seeing with AI is that it makes things too easy. We are seeing a decrease in willingness to struggle through hard things in this newer generation of employees," Kryscynski said. "If you want to stand out in the future workforce, then avoid offloading your thinking to AI and purposefully invest in challenging tasks that will challenge your brain to connect complex ideas, wrestle with moral ambiguities.""
""There will be a difference between those who are replaced by AI and those who are running the AI in the future, and I suspect that one of these key differences will be about willingness to struggle through challenging cognitive tasks," Kryscynski said."
AI makes tasks too easy and reduces willingness to struggle through difficult work among newer employees. Offloading thinking to AI erodes development of skills needed to connect complex ideas and wrestle with moral ambiguities. Intentionally investing time in challenging cognitive tasks strengthens the brain's ability to handle complexity and ethical nuance. A divide will emerge between workers replaced by AI and those who operate AI, with willingness to endure cognitive struggle as a key differentiator. Purposeful engagement with demanding tasks will help individuals stand out in the future workforce and prepare them to run AI systems rather than be supplanted by them.
