Penny interviews Professor Joseph Fuller of Harvard Business School Managing the Future of Work Project. In this interview Penny and Prof. Fuller talk about what the rapid adoption of AI means for the workforce right now, why partnerships between employers and educational institutions matter more than ever, and what leaders should be paying attention to as this transition accelerates.

One takeaway from the conversation, when AI takes on more tasks what ultimately differentiates people isn’t what’s on a transcript—it’s judgment, curiosity, and how we engage with one another. Technology may change how work gets done, but it doesn’t replace the things that make people essential.
