The Career Reset: Surviving and Thriving in the AI Economy

Meeting Link: [Technology.ai Session : The Career Reset: Surviving and Thriving in the AI Economy | Meeting-Join | Microsoft Teams](https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/221840705946574?p=SOyAuqJBSXJtjN4j9B) Artificial intelligence is not just changing jobs — it is changing what it means to have a job. This session explores how AI agents, automation, and software platforms are transforming corporate work, professional careers, and entrepreneurship. Students will learn which skills are becoming obsolete, which are becoming valuable, and how roles are shifting from doing work to directing and supervising intelligent systems. The talk also introduces the emerging “one-person company,” new labor models, and how future workers may build businesses instead of applying for jobs. Attendees will leave with practical guidance on what to study, what to practice, and how to prepare for a career in the AI economy. In short, what do do when: \- Your Future Boss Might Be an Algorithm \- Your Future Lawyer Might Be an Algorithm \- Your Future Doctor Might Be an Algorithm \- Your Future Teacher Might Be an Algorithm
