Which skills make you most employable in an age of AI?

More and more people worry their job is going to be automated by AI. But how likely is this, and what does it imply for job seekers at the start of their careers?

Benjamin Todd is the cofounder of 80,000 Hours, an organisation that provides free research and support to help people find fulfilling careers that make a difference. He'll summarise the latest research on the impact of AI automation on employment and wages, and suggest what it means practically about what skills are most valuable to learn.

If you are interested in attending, please RSVP here. Spaces are limited.

Join CAISH at the Meridian Office for our first public members' meeting of the Michaelmas term! We will be reading through AI safety papers in small groups, followed by socialising and mingling over dinner (pizza).
