Performance reviews are performative (and why that matters now more than ever)
Briefly

Performance reviews are performative (and why that matters now more than ever)
"AI can help people do 12% more work, 25% faster—but it gets the answers wrong 19% of the time. This highlights a critical issue: while AI optimizes existing tasks, it cannot create or empathize."
"Humans can generate new versions of the world, taking unsolved problems and wrestling with contradictions to create something genuinely useful. This generative capacity is what fuels every meaningful innovation."
"AI is recursive and finds patterns in what already exists, but it cannot imagine what doesn't exist yet. This fundamental difference in intelligence is significant."
AI can increase work output by 12% and speed by 25%, but it has a 19% error rate. This highlights a critical issue: while AI optimizes existing tasks, it cannot create or empathize. Humans possess the ability to generate new ideas and solutions, which is essential for meaningful innovation. The current management measurement systems fail to recognize this generative capacity, turning a long-standing issue into a crisis with the rise of AI. The difference between human and AI intelligence is fundamental and significant.
