The Skill Code: How to Save Human Ability in an Age of Intelligent Machines with Matt Beane

The Next Practices Weekly call series has become a well-attended and wide-ranging discussion for HR leaders each Thursday at 11am ET / 8am PT. On this week's call, i4cp Director of Research Enablement Judy Albers and i4cp Senior Research Analyst Tom Stone were joined by special guest Matt Beane, Assistant Professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and author of the new book The Skill Code: How to Save Human Ability in an Age of Intelligent Machines. In today's tech-driven world, the crucial mentor-mentee relationship is at risk. As we strive to optimize productivity with AI and robotics, we are inadvertently distancing junior workers from seasoned experts across various industries. This growing gap is a multi-trillion-dollar problem that has largely been overlooked—until now.
