The lump of labor fallacy proves AI doesn't eliminate work but transforms how jobs are structured across industries. In this conversation with Eric Post, CEO of Huzi.ai, we explore why AI job displacement fears are overblown, what short-term turbulence to expect, and how to prepare for the future of work.
Upskilling builds on existing skills while reskilling involves pivoting to entirely new career directions with AI as your tool. This conversation cuts through fear-mongering to explain the economic reality: throughout history, new technology creates more work than it eliminates, just in different forms.
Short-term job market turbulence in 2026 is expected but won't cause permanent widespread unemployment longterm. We discuss which jobs are most vulnerable, how to adapt at any age, the difference between upskilling and reskilling, and why the future of work will be more fractional and flexible than traditional full-time employment.
This works for workers anxious about job security, professionals planning career transitions, and anyone trying to understand AI's real impact on employment. Whether you're in your 20s or 50s, this framework helps you navigate the transformation with confidence instead of panic.
