   James Manyika runs research and labs at Google, and his team recently studied millions of real Gemini conversations to see how people use AI at work. In a typical job, it's only about a fifth of the tasks. I asked him what that means for your job and your salary, why he bet against the people who predicted half of white-collar jobs would disappear in two years, which three signals would change his forecast, and which AI breakthroughs are already in your life without you noticing.📩 Follow my Newsletter: https://siliconvalleygirl.beehiiv.com/subscribe?utm_source=spotify&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=futureproof-sub&utm_content=30-days-plan&utm_term=james-manyika Lees meer

4. Nobel Economist: Where He Sees The Real Money in AI | Daron Acemoglu

   Daron Acemoglu is an MIT economist and a 2024 Nobel laureate in Economic Sciences. He believes some of AI’s biggest business opportunities are being overlooked—but where does he see the real money, and what should you learn to stay valuable? Lees meer

   In this episode, I ask Daron where founders should look for opportunities beyond the AI hype. We talk about why helping workers become more productive can be better for business than replacing them, why existing models are already powerful enough to build useful applications, and where high-quality data creates an advantage. Daron also shares what he would study now and why builders need to spend more time talking to workers.

6. TOP 10 Highest-Paying Jobs for the next 10 years (and 5 jobs that have NO future)

   29 september 2026 · 18 min

   The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects which jobs will grow through 2035, and it rated 831 occupations by how much of the work AI can do or help with. I went through the data to find the careers where demand is growing, what they pay, and what it takes to get in.We rank 10 growing careers by median salary, from management analysts at $101,860 to computer and information systems managers at $175,140. You'll see why nurse practitioners are the fastest-growing occupation in the country, why software developers are still projected to add 174,700 jobs, and which six-figure healthcare job sits in the lowest AI exposure group. Then we look at the five occupations shrinking fastest and what they have in common.At the end, I show you a simple exercise from Stanford economist Erik Brynjolfsson. Split your last two weeks of work into define, execute and evaluate. Pick one repetitive task, try it with AI, and check the result. Then decide what responsibility you want to grow into with the time you get back.📌 FREE: my 20-minute AI agent setup — no code needed.

8. Superhuman CEO: AI Moved the Career Ladder (Most People Don't See It Yet) | Shishir Mehrotra

   Shishir Mehrotra ran product for YouTube, founded Coda, and has sat on Spotify's board for over a decade. He now runs Superhuman, the company behind Grammarly, which 40 million people use every day.In this episode, he reverses the career advice he gave for twenty years — stop trying to be a great executor, start learning to manage. He explains why the best jobs never come through the recruiting funnel, walks through the framework he built at Google for how promotions actually work, and points to the moment mid-career where the rules quietly change and most people panic. He pushes back on the word "replaced," gives away the interview question he used for hundreds of hires until he talked about it publicly too much, and shares what Bill Campbell told him in 2000 that changed how he measures his own success.
