AI will take the part of my job that made me progress quick. How has your way of working actually changed?

Summary

A consultant reflects on how AI is taking over the knowledge-based part of their job, forcing a shift towards execution intelligence and orchestrating AI agents, and asks others how their work has changed.

I have been working for 5/6 years as a consultant and my edge to be successful in the job market was knowledge: methodologies, industry context, sector expertise. People looked to me as the person who knew. That’s what ultimately helped me progress quickly, also salary-wise. Now, I will never be able to outperform the latest AI models in terms of producing ordered (actionable) information from a vast basin of knowledge. I feel like I lost that leverage. I feel that I have to shift way of working: no more what but how I am going to get the requires piece of knowledge, how to be the human in the loop of a always working super brain. I feel like I need to train my execution intelligence muscle: the whys, the operational-side of working. how to orchestrate multiple agents (basically, a team) to get the desired outcome. I feel like this is happening quietly to others around me. To deal with a force that we fear but that pushes us to change. Are you experiencing something similar? What do you think we need to change in our way of working in order to make the most of this absolute paradigm shift?
