About a decade ago, people in the tech sector and the frontier thinkers had already started talking about how IA will disrupt and shape the future of work and jobs. Today, in 2023, people outside the 2 groups start to feel that the world is really changing after the launch of ChatGPT, an AI chatbot.
We are at the dawn of transiting from the Information era to a Knowledge era. But we are still asking and looking at skills and jobs like we are still in the Industrial era or Computer era.
In the Knowledge era, there is no "Which are the most relevant skills in your industry?". There is only, "Which
bag of skills...". We need to be cross-trained. People skills, technology skills, industry specific skills and other relevant skills that form the "Bag of Skills".
If there is only one skill that you want me to name, I would say, the most relevant skill to look out for in 2023 and beyond, is the
"Skill of acquiring Skills".
