Is the AI productivity story at a turning point?

"Is my generation doomed?" That’s what one Stanford graduating senior asked Professor Erik Brynjolfsson, economist and director of the Stanford Digital Economy Lab. The professor had seen the data, so he didn’t dismiss the question. But as productivity gains begin to emerge, Brynjolfsson argues that the biggest opportunity lies not in replacing workers but in redesigning work. In this episode of McKinsey Talks Talent (preview.mckinsey.com/capabilities/people-and-o…), Brynjolfsson joins McKinsey leaders Brooke Weddle (preview.mckinsey.com/our-people/brooke-weddle) and Bryan Hancock (preview.mckinsey.com/our-people/bryan-hancock), as well as Global Editorial Director Lucia Rahilly, to discuss what’s changing, who’s most susceptible to displacement, and what leaders need to know to create value while managing new risks.
