For investors facing concentrated wealth or future liquidity events, understanding tax-aware planning options matters long before decisions are required. Opportunity Zones are one of the most talked-about and least understood tools in that conversation. In this episode of The Millionaire Next Door Podcast, Robert Curtiss sits down with Michael O'Shea, CFA, Head of Private Wealth at Origin Investments, to unpack one of the most misunderstood and potentially powerful tax planning tools available today: Qualified Opportunity Zones. Together, they walk through how Opportunity Zones work, why the original structure created a temporary pause in interest, and why upcoming changes beginning in 2027 may reopen the door for investors facing large capital gains. The conversation focuses on real-world planning scenarios, including concentrated stock positions, private business exits, and highly appreciated real estate. Michael explains how Opportunity Zones differ from 1031 exchanges, what the long-term benefits may look like when paired with professionally managed real estate development, and why advanced coordination with tax and legal advisors matters. This episode is designed as an evergreen educational resource for investors who want to understand their options well before a liquidity event occurs. Key takeaways: How Qualified Opportunity Zones work and why they were created What's changing in Opportunity Zone legislation starting in 2027 How Opportunity Zones may help address large capital gains from stocks, businesses, or real estate Why long-term real estate development and coordinated planning are key to using this strategy effectively And more!

Nick revisits what may be the strangest and darkest Christmas episode Saturday Night Live ever put on the air, when Bill Murray returned to host on December 12, 1981. What should have been a holiday show quickly turned unsettling, starting with a deeply odd monologue featuring a silent Santa, followed by sketches that veered from uncomfortable to outright disturbing. There was a fake tampon commercial led by Father Guido Sarducci, played by Don Novello, a tasteless designer jeans bit, and an offbeat musical performance by the Yale Whiffenpoofs. Things took a sharp turn when Sarducci returned with Murray to share predictions for 1982, including World War III and nuclear annihilation. Almost immediately after, the show was interrupted by a real NBC news bulletin announcing that Russia had invaded Poland. What followed was one of the most surreal moments in the show's history, a bleak, apocalyptic sketch about global destruction written by Michael O’Donoghue, which ended up being his final contribution before he was fired that same night.

From ballet dancer and Billy Elliot hopeful to Michelin-starred chef, Michael O'Hare's journey is anything but conventional. In this episode of The Go-To Food Podcast, Michael traces his path from Middlesbrough to the top of British fine dining via aerospace engineering, Jamie Oliver cookbooks, formative kitchen years and time spent at Noma, before blowing the doors off the scene with The Man Behind the Curtain. It's a story shaped as much by instinct and curiosity as by rebellion against tradition.Michael speaks candidly about what success really costs. He breaks down the brutal economics of Michelin-starred restaurants, the impossible margins, the pressure to keep raising prices, and the moment he realised that even full dining rooms no longer meant financial survival. For the first time in detail, he explains the HMRC debt that followed the closure of his restaurants, how his wages became reframed as loans, and what it actually means to “go bankrupt” in modern hospitality. It's a rare, unfiltered look behind the headlines.Beyond the business, Michael unpacks his philosophy on food and creativity. He rails against homogenisation in restaurants, arguing that haute cuisine has slipped into fast-fashion thinking, where identity is lost and trends are copied plate for plate. He challenges ideas around seasonality, menu poetry and performative complexity, and tells the stories behind some of his most infamous dishes, from raw prawns and potato custard to why a “tikka prawn” can be more honest than something that looks clever on paper.The conversation moves effortlessly between the serious and the absurd: chaotic kitchen stories, onion-ring addictions, shower cups of tea, the strangest customers he's ever faced, and why he believes restaurants should feel more like homes than institutions. We also hear about his new chapter, a radically intimate restaurant built around balance, control and cooking purely for joy. Funny, fierce and deeply human, this is Michael O'Hare as you've never heard him before.Pre Order Ben's Incredible Book - All You Can Eat - By Clicking Here - https://www.amazon.co.uk/All-You-Can-Eat-British/dp/1805221523 Hosted on Acast.

Le discours sur impact de l’intelligence artificielle (IA) et emploi a atteint son paroxysme. Les gros titres hurlent aux licenciements massifs, les communiqués de presse vantent l’IA comme la solution miracle pour réduire les coûts salariaux. Pourtant, derrière cette cacophonie d’alertes et de battage médiatique se cache une réalité bien plus nuancée. J.P. Gownder, vice-président et analyste principal au sein de l’équipe Future of Work de Forrester, analyse depuis des décennies la transformation du monde du travail par la technologie. Son dernier rapport, The Forrester AI Job Impact Forecast for the US 2025-2030, tranche dans le vif avec une rigueur empirique. Le verdict ? L’apocalypse de l’emploi n’est pas pour demain, mais un ajustement mesuré se profile à l’horizon. IA et emploi aux USA : l’apocalypse attendra encore un peu JP Gownder est catégorique sur le sujet de l’emploi et de l’IA : l’apocalypse peut attendre. Au moins jusqu’en 2030. Ouf ! Toutes les images de cet article ont été réalisées avec une combinaison de Midjourney, Gemini Nano Banana pro et Adobe Photoshop Le fossé entre les annonces et la réalité Lorsque Klarna a annoncé qu’elle cessait de recruter des humains, le monde de la tech a pris note. La fintech suédoise est devenue l’emblème de la réduction des effectifs pilotée par l’IA. Pourtant, un examen plus attentif révèle un schéma que Gownder a observé au fil de centaines d’échanges avec des entreprises : le décalage entre les déclarations des dirigeants et la réalité opérationnelle. Neuf entreprises sur dix qui annoncent des licenciements liés à l’IA ne disposent pas encore de solutions d’IA matures. La plupart des suppressions de postes sont donc motivées par des raisons financières, et l’IA n’est qu’un bouc émissaire, du moins pour l’instant — J.P. Gownder, Forrester Ce phénomène rappelle ce qui s’est passé après la victoire d’IBM Watson à Jeopardy en 2011, quand la panique autour des suppressions d’emplois imminentes s’est révélée prématurée d’une bonne demi-décennie. Les rouages de ce décalage sont simples à comprendre. Un PDG annonce une réduction d’effectifs de 20 %, l’IA devant reprendre le travail. Mais mettre en place une solution d’IA capable d’accomplir réellement ces tâches demande 18 à 24 mois, « à condition que ça fonctionne ». Entre-temps, le travail doit bien être fait. Gownder a vu des entreprises licencier des salariés en invoquant les capacités de l’IA, puis recruter discrètement des équipes dans des pays à bas coûts quelques semaines plus tard. « Ils licencient des gens à cause de l’IA, observe-t-il, et trois semaines après, ils embauchent une équipe en Inde parce que la main-d’œuvre y est tellement moins chère ». Le discours sur l’IA sert souvent de paravent commode à un bon vieil arbitrage sur les coûts. La trajectoire de Klarna illustre parfaitement ce schéma. Après avoir réduit agressivement ses effectifs de 40 % et vanté un chatbot IA capable de faire le travail de 700 agents du service client, l’entreprise a fait marche arrière. Son PDG Sebastian Siemiatkowski a reconnu que cette automatisation à outrance avait engendré un service « de moindre qualité ». L’entreprise recrute désormais des agents humains selon un modèle « à la Uber ». Comprendre la prévision de 6 % de pertes d’emplois Les prévisions de Forrester tablent sur une perte nette de 6 % des emplois d’ici 2030, soit environ 10,4 millions de postes dans l’économie américaine. La moitié de cet impact provient de l’IA générative ; le reste de l’automatisation, de la robotique et des applications d’IA non générative. Ce chiffre peut sembler modeste au regard des prédictions apocalyptiques qui circulent dans les médias, mais il faut le remettre en contexte. Durant la Grande Récession de 2008-2009, les États-Unis ont perdu 8,7 millions d’emplois. Ces pertes étaient toutefois temporaires, liées à une conjoncture macroéconomique qui a fini par se retourner. Les emplois que Forrester prévoit de voir disparaître sont « structurellement remplacés par le travail des machines » et pourraient ne jamais revenir. Impact de l’IA sur l’emploi : Je m’attends à voir beaucoup plus de travail en freelance et de missions de conseil, mais cela ne veut pas dire qu’il n’y aura plus de parcours professionnels classiques. JP Gownder La méthodologie derrière ce chiffre s’appuie sur la base de données O-Net du Bureau of Labor Statistics. Celui-ci recense plus de 800 catégories d’emplois avec des informations détaillées sur les compétences et les tâches requises. En croisant ces données avec les capacités actuelles et prévisionnelles de l’IA, Gownder et Michael O’Grady ont identifié les métiers les plus exposés à l’automatisation. « Pour les emplois qui impliquent des compétences et des tâches fortement impactées par l’IA et l’automatisation, nous prévoyons davantage de suppressions de postes, explique Gownder. Dans les catégories moins touchées, nous en prévoyons évidemment moins ». Le paradoxe de Solow et la productivité de l’IA La célèbre observation de Robert Solow selon laquelle « on voit des ordinateurs partout, sauf dans les statistiques de productivité » trouve un nouvel écho à l’ère de l’IA. Le parallèle est instructif. Il a fallu près de trois décennies pour que l’impact du web sur la productivité se concrétise. Le commerce en ligne ne bouleverse véritablement le commerce traditionnel que maintenant, comme en témoigne la fermeture des commerces indépendants de New York à Paris. La fenêtre de cinq ans retenue par Forrester serait-elle trop étroite ? Gownder reconnaît les limites inhérentes à l’exercice de prévision. « Toute projection au-delà de cinq ans relève davantage de l’impression que de l’analyse ». Pourtant, le rythme d’adoption des technologies s’est considérablement accéléré. Le téléphone a mis 75 ans pour atteindre 100 millions d’utilisateurs après son invention en 1878. L’ordinateur personnel y est parvenu en 16 ans. Le téléphone mobile en sept ans. ChatGPT ? Deux mois. Cette compression suggère que si le paradoxe de Solow reste d’actualité, son horizon temporel pourrait être nettement plus court. « S’il y a une apocalypse de l’emploi, on aura moins de gens qui travaillent, c’est le principe même d’une apocalypse. Ces gens-là devraient donc produire davantage. On ne peut pas avoir d’apocalypse de l’emploi sans voir la productivité globale augmenter ». — J.P. Gownder, Forrester Les données de productivité racontent une histoire qui donne à réfléchir. De 1947 à 1973, la productivité du travail aux États-Unis progressait de 2,7 % par an. Le cycle économique actuel affiche 1,8 %. Même en isolant les trimestres écoulés depuis le lancement de ChatGPT, on n’obtient que 2,2 %. Les chiffres ne mentent pas, et ils ne montrent pas encore les gains révolutionnaires promis par les apôtres de l’IA. IA et emploi : où se situent les points de tension L’impact de l’IA sur l’emploi aux États-Unis ne sera pas uniforme. Les agents des centres d’appels subissent une pression continue, amorcée avec les serveurs vocaux interactifs et désormais amplifiée par des solutions bien plus sophistiquées. Rédacteurs techniques et créateurs de contenus web se trouvent en terrain miné. Les souscripteurs en assurance voient les algorithmes empiéter sur leur territoire : la vision par ordinateur peut désormais évaluer les dégâts d’un accident de voiture à partir de simples photos. Les postes de débutants impliquant la création de tableurs ou de présentations sont sous pression croissante. Un cas plus nuancé Le développement logiciel présente un cas plus nuancé. « Si vous êtes développeur débutant, souligne Gownder, on sait que Claude fait un excellent travail pour générer du code basique ». Mais les développeurs seniors, dotés d’une vision architecturale et d’une compréhension systémique, restent indispensables. Un schéma se répète dans l’ensemble du travail intellectuel : l’IA augmente plus qu’elle ne remplace, transformant les fiches de poste plutôt qu’elle n’élimine les postes eux-mêmes. « Ce n’est pas qu’il n’y aura pas d’emplois qui disparaîtront, précise-t-il, mais ils sont bien plus spécifiques et limités, et il faut concevoir la bonne technologie pour remplacer tel ou tel poste. Ce n’est pas tout le monde qui disparaît ». IA et emploi: les titres de journaux sont clairs, c’est l’apocalypse. La réalité est plus nuancée. Le travail manuel présente sa propre dynamique. La robotique jouera un rôle dans certains secteurs : le tri et la préparation de commandes en entrepôt ont progressé grâce à la vision par ordinateur, et le BTP a vu des expérimentations avec des robots poseurs de briques ou couleurs de béton. Mais les robots humanoïdes qui font la une des médias ont peu de chances d’être déployés massivement dans les entreprises d’ici la fin de la période couverte par les prévisions. Le monde physique, avec ses variations infinies et ses imprévus constants, résiste obstinément à l’automatisation. Cols blancs : fausses pistes et vrais défis Les cols blancs représentent désormais environ 60 % de la population active aux États-Unis comme en Europe, un basculement spectaculaire par rapport aux générations précédentes. Ces « analystes symboliques », selon l’expression de Charles Handy, ne produisent pas de biens physiques, ce qui a conduit certains à supposer que leur travail serait facilement transférable à des systèmes d’IA. Gownder réfute cette idée. « La plupart des emplois de bureau sont en réalité assez productifs, parce qu’il y a quelque chose à l’autre bout pour lequel quelqu’un est prêt à payer ». Les ingénieurs logiciels créent des applications qui permettent d’autres activités. Par ailleurs, les médecins produisent des résultats de santé. Quant à eux, les analystes aident les organisations à prendre de meilleures décisions. Des difficultés pratiques Les difficultés pratiques du déploiement de l’IA dans les environnements de bureau corroborent ces objections théoriques. Ensuite, les hallucinations restent un problème récurrent, introduisant des marges d’erreur que les travailleurs intellectuels doivent repérer et corriger. Les salariés manquent souvent des compétences et de la compréhension nécessaires pour utiliser efficacement les outils d’IA. Les organisations surestiment ce que l’IA peut accomplir. « Quand ça échoue, c’est spectaculaire », observe Gownder. Les incidents Deloitte en Australie et au Canada, où des contenus générés par IA truffés d’hallucinations flagrantes ont été livrés à des clients gouvernementaux, illustrent les risques réputationnels d’une automatisation prématurée. Le rapport destiné au gouvernement australien contenait des citations académiques inventées et même une fausse citation d’un jugement de la Cour fédérale. Les deux gouvernements ont exigé des remboursements. « Vous n’avez pas intérêt à produire de la bouillie générée par l’IA et à la présenter comme votre travail sans relecture, sans recul. C’est la garantie de l’échec ». — J.P. Gownder, Forrester Une étude de la Harvard Business Review confirme ces inquiétudes. Les chercheurs ont constaté que les dirigeants qui utilisaient ChatGPT pour faire des prévisions devenaient nettement plus optimistes, plus confiants, et produisaient des prévisions moins bonnes que ceux qui consultaient leurs pairs. Le ton péremptoire de l’IA génère un fort sentiment d’assurance, sans le garde-fou de la régulation sociale et du scepticisme salutaire qu’apporte la consultation entre humains. L’impact sur les marketeurs et les professionnels du digital Pour les étudiants qui se destinent au marketing digital et aux métiers connexes, le tableau est complexe mais pas nécessairement sombre. « Les marketeurs sont en première ligne de la transformation des métiers, pas de leur remplacement », note Gownder. La nuance est de taille. Transformation implique évolution des rôles plutôt qu’élimination. « Je travaille avec beaucoup de marketeurs qui me disent : « Je me suis engagé pour devenir un excellent marketeur, pas un expert en IA. Pourquoi est-ce que j’apprends tous ces outils ? » Mais inévitablement, ils ne peuvent plus faire leur travail sans utiliser une forme ou une autre d’outil d’IA ». La prescription pour les jeunes professionnels est claire : combiner une formation classique avec une véritable compréhension des capacités et des limites de l’IA. Ceux qui maîtriseront les deux domaines seront recherchés. Ceux qui résisteront à la technologie ou n’en comprendront pas les limites auront du mal à s’en sortir. L’essentiel est d’aborder l’IA comme un outil d’augmentation plutôt que de remplacement — utiliser ces outils pour enrichir son expertise existante tout en restant conscient de leurs limites. Le jugement, l’éthique et la connaissance institutionnelle qu’apportent les professionnels expérimentés ne peuvent pas être facilement répliqués par des algorithmes. Les freelances face à l’IA Si l’IA augmente plutôt qu’elle ne remplace les salariés classiques, la question se pose : les freelances et les travailleurs de la gig economy vont-ils absorber les déplacements d’emploi ? L’économie des cols blancs connaît une transition plus large vers davantage de travail indépendant et de missions à tous les niveaux. « D’une certaine manière, observe Gownder, cela peut donner aux gens une certaine liberté, parce qu’ils peuvent travailler avec des clients variés, fixer leurs propres horaires, travailler où ils veulent ». La flexibilité qui définit le travail à la tâche s’accorde bien avec la nature par projets des flux de travail augmentés par l’IA. Pourtant, le tableau n’est pas uniformément positif. Aux États-Unis, où l’accès aux soins dépend de l’emploi, le travail indépendant peut s’avérer précaire. La gig economy compte désormais plus de 64 millions de travailleurs américains et contribue à hauteur de près de 1 270 milliards de dollars à l’économie. L’IA remodèle ce paysage de façon contradictoire : les plateformes utilisent des algorithmes pour mettre en relation travailleurs et clients plus efficacement, mais la même technologie permet aux clients de gérer eux-mêmes des tâches qu’ils sous-traitaient auparavant. Les freelances qui tireront le mieux leur épingle du jeu seront ceux qui combineront culture technologique et compétences distinctement humaines — esprit critique, créativité et confiance du client. Je m’attends à voir beaucoup plus de travail en freelance et de missions de conseil, mais cela ne veut pas dire qu’il n’y aura plus de parcours professionnels classiques — J.P. Gownder, Forrester De nouvelles niches émergent tandis que d’autres se contractent. L’ingénierie de prompts, le conseil en éthique de l’IA et les métiers liés à l’entraînement des modèles représentent des domaines de croissance qui n’existaient pas avant la vague actuelle d’IA générative. Cette bifurcation pourrait s’avérer l’un des effets les plus significatifs de l’IA sur le marché du travail : certains travailleurs gagnent en flexibilité et en autonomie, d’autres perdent en stabilité et en avantages sociaux. Naviguer dans la transformation des emplois par l’IA Pour les travailleurs en début ou en fin de carrière, la transition vers l’IA présente des défis distincts. Les jeunes professionnels font face au paradoxe d’entrer sur un marché du travail qui peut valoriser leur aisance numérique tout en menaçant les postes de débutants qui servaient traditionnellement de terrain d’apprentissage. Le conseil de Gownder est direct : combiner une formation classique avec une véritable compréhension des capacités et des limites de l’IA. Les travailleurs plus âgés, souvent caricaturés comme réfractaires à la technologie, ont leur propre voie à tracer. « L’un des préjugés associés aux travailleurs seniors, c’est qu’ils seraient incapables d’adopter la technologie, observe Gownder. C’est quelque chose sur quoi on peut travailler ». L’essentiel est d’aborder l’IA comme un outil d’augmentation plutôt que de remplacement, en utilisant ces outils pour enrichir son expertise existante tout en restant conscient de leurs limites. Le jugement, l’éthique et la connaissance institutionnelle qu’apportent les travailleurs expérimentés ne peuvent pas être facilement répliqués par des algorithmes. Pour les dirigeants d’entreprise, la prescription est presque contre-intuitive. « L’ironie de l’IA, c’est que la façon de réussir aujourd’hui passe par l’investissement dans vos collaborateurs humains ». La technologie peut augmenter la productivité, mais seulement lorsque les salariés possèdent les compétences, la motivation et le cadre éthique pour la déployer efficacement. L’élément humain, loin d’être rendu obsolète, devient plus crucial que jamais. La vision à long terme sur l’IA et l’emploi américain L’impact de l’IA sur l’emploi aux États-Unis se déploiera sur des années, pas des mois. La prévision de 6 % de Forrester représente une transformation significative affectant des millions de travailleurs, mais il s’agit d’un glissement mesuré, pas d’un effondrement soudain. Les organisations qui tireront leur épingle du jeu seront celles qui résisteront à la tentation de confondre annonces sur l’IA et capacités réelles de l’IA, qui investiront dans leur main-d’œuvre au lieu de supposer que la technologie la rendra obsolète, et qui aborderont l’automatisation avec la même rigueur qu’elles apporteraient à tout investissement majeur. L’ironie de l’IA, c’est que la façon de réussir aujourd’hui passe par l’investissement dans vos collaborateurs humains. Investissez dans vos équipes, aussi contre-intuitif que cela puisse paraître — J.P. Gownder, Forrester Le travail de Gownder chez Forrester fournit une grille de lecture pour naviguer dans cette transformation : empirique plutôt qu’hystérique, spécifique plutôt que généralisatrice, attentive tant aux capacités réelles de l’IA qu’à ses limites persistantes. L’apocalypse de l’emploi fait de bons gros titres, mais les faits pointent vers quelque chose de plus complexe et, en fin de compte, de plus gérable. Pour ceux qui accepteront de s’adapter, d’investir dans leurs compétences et de garder la tête froide, l’avenir du travail reste une histoire humaine, augmentée mais non remplacée par l’intelligence artificielle.

Award-winning chairmaker, Michael O’Donoghue of Michael G Woodwork, who won the most prestigious prize at Ireland’s international creative expo, Showcase 2026, spoke to Jerry.

The discourse around the job impact of artificial intelligence (AI) has reached fever pitch. Headlines scream about mass layoffs, and corporate press releases tout AI as the solution to workforce costs. Yet beneath this cacophony of alarm and hype lies a more nuanced reality. J.P. Gownder, Vice President and Principal Analyst on Forrester’s Future of Work team, has spent decades analysing how technology transforms the workplace. His latest report, The Forrester AI Job Impact Forecast for the US 2025-2030, cuts through the noise with empirical rigour. The verdict? The job apocalypse is not upon us, but a measured reckoning is coming. AI Job Impact in the US: Why the Apocalypse Can Wait JP Gownder is adamant: the AI job. apocalypse can wait. At least until 2030. Phew! All images in this post made with a combination of Midjourney, Gemini Nano Banana pro and Adobe Photoshop The Gap Between AI Job Impact Announcements and Reality When Klarna declared it would stop hiring humans, the tech world took notice. The Swedish fintech became a poster child for AI-driven workforce reduction. Yet a closer examination reveals a pattern Gownder has observed across hundreds of enterprise conversations: the disconnect between C-suite proclamations and operational reality. Nine out of ten companies announcing AI layoffs don’t actually have mature AI solutions ready. So most of the layoffs are financially driven and AI is just the scapegoat, at least today — J.P. Gownder, Forrester The phenomenon echoes what happened after IBM Watson’s Jeopardy victory in 2011, when panic about imminent job losses proved premature by half a decade. The mechanics of this gap are straightforward. A CEO announces a 20% workforce reduction with AI backfilling the work. But standing up an AI solution that actually performs those tasks requires 18 to 24 months, “if it works at all.” Meanwhile, the work still needs doing. Gownder has witnessed organisations that fired employees citing AI capabilities, only to quietly hire teams in lower-cost markets weeks later. “They’re firing people because of AI,” he observes, “and then three weeks later they hire a team in India because the labour is so much cheaper.” The AI narrative, in many cases, serves as convenient cover for old-fashioned cost arbitrage. Klarna’s trajectory illustrates this pattern. After aggressively cutting its workforce by 40% and touting an AI chatbot capable of doing the work of 700 customer service agents, the company reversed course. CEO Sebastian Siemiatkowski acknowledged that the aggressive automation had resulted in “lower quality” service. The company is now recruiting human customer service agents in an “Uber-type setup.” Understanding the 6% AI Job Impact Forecast Forrester’s forecast projects a 6% net job loss by 2030, roughly 10.4 million positions in the US economy. Half of this impact stems from generative AI; the remainder from automation, physical robotics, and non-generative AI applications. The number may seem modest compared to the apocalyptic predictions circulating in media, but context matters. During the Great Recession of 2008-2009, the United States lost 8.7 million jobs. Those losses, however, were temporary, tied to macroeconomic conditions that eventually reversed. The jobs Forrester forecasts losing are “structurally replaced by machine labour” and may not return. AI impact on Jobs: I would expect to see a lot more freelance and consulting work to be happening, but it doesn’t mean that there won’t be a traditional job track somewhere as well. JP Gownder The methodology behind this figure draws on the O-Net dataset maintained by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which catalogues over 800 job categories with detailed information about required skills and tasks. By mapping these against AI’s current and projected capabilities, Gownder and his colleague Michael O’Grady can identify which roles face the highest automation potential. “For jobs that involve skills and tasks that are heavily impacted by AI and automation, we predict more job loss,” Gownder explains. “In job categories that are less impacted, obviously, we would predict less.” Forrester analysed 800 different job types. It seems that Art therapy is the right way to go. The Solow Paradox and AI Productivity Robert Solow’s famous observation that “we see computers everywhere except in the productivity statistics” finds a new iteration in the AI era. The parallel is instructive. It took nearly three decades for the internet’s productivity impact to materialise. E-commerce is only now truly disrupting traditional retail, as evidenced by the shuttering of independent shops from New York to Paris. Could Forrester’s five-year window be too narrow? Gownder acknowledges the limitation inherent in forecasting: “Anything that you forecast beyond five years is effectively an impression.” Yet the pace of technology adoption has accelerated dramatically. The telephone required 75 years to reach 100 million users from its 1878 introduction. The personal computer achieved the same milestone in 16 years. Mobile phones took seven years. ChatGPT? Two months. This compression suggests that while the Solow paradox may still apply, its timeline could be considerably shorter. “If there’s a job apocalypse, you’re going to have fewer people working because that’s what the apocalypse means. Those people would have to be producing more output. You cannot see a job apocalypse without aggregate productivity going up.” — J.P. Gownder, Forrester The productivity data tells a sobering story. From 1947 to 1973, US labour productivity grew at 2.7% annually. The current business cycle shows 1.8%. Even isolating the quarters since ChatGPT’s release yields only 2.2%. The numbers don’t lie, and they’re not yet showing the revolutionary gains AI proponents promise. Where the AI Job Impact Pressure Points Lie The AI job impact in the US will not be evenly distributed. Contact centre workers face continued pressure from automation that began with interactive voice response systems and now benefits from far more sophisticated solutions. Technical writers and web content creators occupy vulnerable ground. Insurance underwriters are seeing algorithmic encroachment; computer vision can now assess car accident damage from uploaded photos. Junior-level roles involving spreadsheet or presentation creation face mounting pressure. Software development presents a nuanced case. “If you are a junior level software developer,” Gownder notes, “we know that Claude does a great job of creating basic code.” Yet senior developers with architectural judgement and system-level understanding remain essential. The pattern repeats across knowledge work: AI augments more than it replaces, transforming job descriptions rather than eliminating positions entirely. “It’s not that there aren’t jobs that will go away,” he clarifies, “but they are much more specific and limited, and they need to be architected with the right technology to replace that job. It’s not everybody goes away.” Blue-collar work presents its own dynamics. Physical robotics will play a role in certain sectors: warehouse sorting and picking have improved through computer vision, and construction has seen experiments with brick-laying and cement-pouring robots. But the humanoid robots capturing media attention are unlikely to achieve significant workplace deployment within the forecast period. The physical world, with its infinite variations and unexpected challenges, remains stubbornly resistant to automation. The White-Collar AI Job Impact Misconception White-collar workers now constitute roughly 60% of the workforce in both the US and Europe, a dramatic shift from previous generations. These “symbolic analysts,” as Charles Handy termed them, don’t produce physical goods, which has led some to assume their work is easily transferable to AI systems. Gownder pushes back against this notion. “Most white-collar work is, in fact, fairly productive because there is something on the other end that someone is willing to pay for.” Software engineers create applications that enable other work. Physicians produce healthcare outcomes. Analysts help organisations make better decisions. The practical challenges of AI deployment in white-collar settings corroborate these theoretical objections. Hallucinations remain a persistent problem, introducing error margins that knowledge workers must catch and correct. Employees often lack the skills and understanding to use AI tools effectively. Organisations overextend their expectations of what AI can accomplish. “When it fails, it’s dramatic,” Gownder observes. The Deloitte incidents in Australia and Canada, where AI-generated content with obvious hallucinations reached government clients, illustrate the reputational risks of premature automation. The Australian government report contained fabricated academic citations and even a made-up quote from a federal court judgement. Both governments required refunds. “You don’t want to produce AI work slop and present it as your work without editing, without perspective. That is a losing proposition.” — J.P. Gownder, Forrester A Harvard Business Review study reinforces these concerns. Researchers found that executives who used ChatGPT to make predictions became significantly more optimistic, confident, and produced worse forecasts than those who consulted with peers. The authoritative voice of AI produces a strong sense of assurance, unchecked by the social regulation and useful scepticism that human consultation provides. AI Job Impact on Marketers and Digital Professionals For students entering digital marketing and related fields, the picture is complex but not necessarily bleak. “Marketers are actually on the front lines of job transformation, not job replacement,” Gownder notes. The distinction matters. Transformation implies evolution of roles rather than elimination. “I work with a lot of marketers and they say, ‘I signed up to be a great marketer. I didn’t sign up to be an AI expert. Why am I learning all of these tools?’ But inevitably, they now can’t do their job without using some kind of AI tool.” The prescription for emerging professionals is clear: combine classical education with a genuine understanding of AI capabilities and limitations. Those who master both domains will find themselves in demand. Those who resist the technology or fail to understand its boundaries will struggle. The key lies in approaching AI as augmentation rather than replacement—using tools to enhance existing expertise while maintaining awareness of their limitations. The judgement, ethics, and institutional knowledge that experienced professionals bring cannot be easily replicated by algorithms. Freelancers and AI If AI augments rather than replaces traditional employees, the question arises: will freelancers and gig economy workers absorb the displacement? The white-collar economy is experiencing a broader transition towards more freelance and contract arrangements at all levels. “On some level,” Gownder observes, “this can give people a certain freedom, because they can work with lots of different clients and they can make their own hours. They can work wherever they want to.” The flexibility that defines gig work aligns well with the project-based nature of AI-augmented workflows. Yet the picture is not uniformly positive. In the United States, where people depend upon employment for health care, freelance arrangements can be precarious. The gig economy now encompasses over 64 million American workers, contributing nearly $1.27 trillion to the economy. AI is reshaping this landscape in contradictory ways: platforms use algorithms to match workers with clients more efficiently, but the same technology enables clients to handle tasks they previously outsourced. The freelancers most likely to thrive will be those who combine technical literacy with uniquely human skills—critical thinking, creativity, and client trust. I would expect to see a lot more freelance and consulting work to be happening, but it doesn’t mean that there won’t be a traditional job track somewhere as well — J.P. Gownder, Forrester New niches are emerging even as others contract. Prompt engineering, AI ethics consulting, and AI training roles represent growth areas that didn’t exist before the current wave of generative AI. The bifurcation may prove to be one of AI’s most significant labour market effects: some workers gaining flexibility and autonomy, others losing stability and benefits. Navigating the AI Job Transformation For workers at either end of their careers, the AI transition presents distinct challenges. Early-career professionals face the paradox of entering a workforce that may value their digital nativity while threatening the entry-level positions that traditionally served as training grounds. Gownder’s advice is direct: combine classical education with a genuine understanding of AI capabilities and limitations. Older workers, often stereotyped as technologically resistant, have their own path forward. “One of the negatives that people associate with older workers is that they are incapable of embracing technology,” Gownder observes. “That is something one can work on.” The key lies in approaching AI as augmentation rather than replacement, using tools to enhance existing expertise while maintaining awareness of their limitations. The judgement, ethics, and institutional knowledge that experienced workers bring cannot be easily replicated by algorithms. For business leaders, the prescription is almost counterintuitive. “The irony of AI is that the way that you succeed today is by investing in your human employees.” The technology can augment productivity, but only when workers possess the skills, motivation, and ethical framework to deploy it effectively. The human element, far from being made obsolete, becomes more critical than ever. The Long View on AI and US Jobs The AI job impact in the US will unfold over years, not months. Forrester’s 6% forecast represents a significant transformation affecting millions of workers, but it is a measured shift, not a sudden collapse. The organisations that thrive will be those that resist the temptation to conflate AI announcements with AI capabilities, that invest in their workforce rather than assuming technology will render it obsolete, and that approach automation with the same rigour they would bring to any major capital investment. The irony of AI is that the way that you succeed today is by investing in your human employees. Invest in your people, counterintuitively — J.P. Gownder, Forrester Gownder’s work at Forrester provides a framework for this navigation: empirical rather than hysterical, specific rather than sweeping, attentive to both the genuine capabilities of AI and its persistent limitations. The job apocalypse makes for compelling headlines, but the evidence points to something more complex and ultimately more manageable. For those willing to adapt, invest in skills, and maintain perspective, the future of work remains a human story, augmented but not replaced by artificial intelligence. J.P. Gownder is Vice President and Principal Analyst on Forrester’s Future of Work team. A Harvard graduate, he covers the impacts that technology and human factors jointly have on the future of work, helping clients design strategies that drive productivity, collaboration, and effective hybrid work.

Michael O’Leary, presidente executivo da Ryanair, entrou numa troca pública de críticas com Elon Musk. O confronto começou nas redes sociais e rapidamente ganhou projeção internacional. Mas quanto valeu esta polémica à companhia aérea irlandesa?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On the Morning News Express, Bob Miller checked in for his monthly visit with City of Frederick Mayor Michael O’Connor to review how the city handled the recent major snowstorm—from plowing efforts to snow removal across neighborhoods and downtown streets. The Mayor also shared an important update for drivers: starting February 9, 2026, all on-street parking meters in downtown Frederick will be removed, with the city moving exclusively to ParkMobile for digital parking payments. It was a practical, timely conversation covering both winter operations and a big change coming for downtown visitors.

Ryanair shares may have jumped 3% on Thursday alone and there was a mini spike in ticket sales after the online spat between Michael O'Leary and Elon Musk. But investors will be far more interested in what the airline is earning per passenger these days and what's happening with a €256 million fine from the Italian Competition Regulator. And now we know that the average fare in the 3rd quarter was up 1 cent per passenger to €44. But post tax profits were down 22% at €115m A lot to chat about with Ryanair Chief Executive Michael O'Leary.

At 8.30am on July 8, 1985, a 15-seater aircraft with a full complement of passengers took off from Waterford airport to London Gatwick on the inaugural flight of a new Irish airline called Ryanair. Air travel, and in some ways Ireland itself, would never be the same again. Fast forward four decades and you'd be hard-pressed to find someone who hasn't travelled with Ryanair and, let's be honest, complained about them. But, despite the extra charges, minimal leg room and marketing stunts, we just keep coming back for more.

Last year, Pope Leo XIV published an apostolic letter called “Drawing New Maps of Hope.” (This is not to be confused with his apostolic exhortation on poverty called “Dilexi te.” There are lots of types of papal writings and it's tough to keep them all straight.) Anyway, “Drawing New Maps of Hope” was all about Catholic education, and the letter itself was released to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Vatican II declaration on education called “Gravissimum educationis.” It seemed like a good time to talk to an expert on primary and secondary Catholic education and find out how things are going in today's environment. How do Catholic schools stand out in a crowded marketplace? How do we keep energy going even when some Catholic schools especially in the northeast and the Midwest have been forced to merge or close? So host Mike Jordan Laskey got his old college friend Dr. Michael O'Connor on the line, who serves as Program Director of Outreach and Professional Development at Boston College's Roche Center for Catholic Education. That essentially means Michael spends most of his time working with faculty and administration at partner Catholic schools and dioceses around the country, helping them live their mission even more deeply. Anyone interested in the present and future of Catholic education in the U.S. will enjoy hearing Michael's reaction to the new letter from Pope Leo and how Catholic schools are responding to our challenging times with creativity and boldness.

Saving American Liberty, Session 8 In this session, Michael O'Fallon argues that contemporary post-liberal and integralist movements, while often presented as moral correctives to modern liberalism, pose significant challenges to pluralism, constitutional governance, and individual liberty. O'Fallon examines how concepts such as distributism and subsidiarity can shift authority away from individuals toward centralized structures claiming to serve the “common good,” and how modern forms of integralism blur the distinction between spiritual and temporal power, raising concerns about dissent and conscience in diverse societies. O'Fallon situates these developments within broader dynamics of social destabilization and reform, noting how periods of cultural conflict and institutional distrust create openings for sweeping structural change. He further explores the evolving role of religious institutions, cautioning that partnerships with political and economic elites risk instrumentalizing faith in support of technocratic agendas. O'Fallon concludes that the convergence of political theory, religion, and technology signals a transition toward more integrated forms of authority that require careful, historically informed scrutiny to ensure they remain compatible with freedom, accountability, and human dignity.

Today, Ben is joined by Michael O'Rourke—Apex-based financial advisor, RICP®, and former environmental engineer—for a rich and human-centered conversation about what it really takes to transition from earning a paycheck to generating reliable retirement income. Drawing on years of advising and his work with the Retirement Income Style Awareness (RISA) framework, Michael shares how differences in temperament, risk tolerance, and even marital dynamics shape the way people experience retirement. Their discussion moves beyond spreadsheets into the deeper architecture of a good retirement: understanding longevity risk, discerning lifestyle desires, preparing for late-life care, and shaping a plan that honors each person's unique “money language.” Together, they explore the surprising reality that adding more guaranteed income can actually expand long-term growth potential, why stability in retirement is more about peace of mind than products, and how thoughtful planning becomes a form of stewardship—one that frees people to enjoy their later years without fear of running out. Grounded in both practical experience and a respect for the human person, the conversation offers a vision of retirement where income supports vocation, strengthens marriages, and gives families the confidence to live generously in the years ahead.Key Takeaways:• The “Four L's” of retirement—longevity, lifestyle, legacy, and liquidity—provide a helpful framework for evaluating retirement readiness.• The Retirement Income Certified Professional (RICP®) designation equips advisors to plan across the full arc of retirement, not just investments.• Risk capacity changes over time, and retirees may become either more risk-averse or more flexible depending on health, lifestyle, and family dynamics.• Advisors serve as guides, not dictators, helping clients navigate decisions while honoring their personal values and preferences.• Compatibility between client and advisor matters; shared values, communication style, and trust can make or break the relationship.• Ultimately, good retirement planning is a stewardship exercise, giving retirees a sense of peace, purpose, and permission to enjoy the years ahead without fear of running out of money.Key Timestamps:(03:39) – Transitioning into Retirement Income(07:15) – The Four Ls of Retirement Planning(20:09) – Balancing Safety and Flexibility in Retirement(27:59) – The Role of Annuities in Retirement Planning(29:09) – Adapting Investment Strategies to Client Needs(35:37) – Finding the Right Financial AdvisorKey Topics Discussed:Catholic Money Mastermind, Catholic financial planning, Catholic financial planners, Catholic financial advisors, Ben Martinek, faith and financesMentions:Website: https://www.hsiadvisors.net/ Mentions: Are You a Stock or a Bond?: Identify Your Own Human Capital for a Secure Financial Future by Moshe A.

Saving American Liberty, Session 6 At the Saving American Liberty learning seminar hosted by New Discourses in Dallas, Texas, on August 22-23, 2025, New Discourses founder James Lindsay and Sovereign Nations founder Michael O'Fallon sat down in front of the audience for a live, unscripted, and raw discussion about the circumstances and challenges Lindsay has faced for standing up to the "New Right" (or, if you want, "Dissident Right," "Postliberal Right," or "Woke Right"). The audience was shocked to hear what Lindsay revealed. Their conversation wasn't limited only to this issue, however. It also tied Lindsay's personal experience into the broader context of the radical movements we're facing from both Left and Right at the same time, helping people to make sense of the bigger play that's taking place that is neither Left nor Right but using radical elements within both to cut our society apart like a pair of scissors.

Saving American Liberty, Session 5 In this session from the New Discourses event 'Saving American Liberty,' Michael O'Fallon argues that global political, corporate, and religious institutions are jointly reshaping Western society through “degrowth” policies, sustainability mandates, and ideological frameworks like ESG and the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, which he sees as mechanisms for centralizing control and limiting individual freedom. He contrasts the West's self-imposed economic contraction with China's expansion through the Belt and Road Initiative, claiming this shift empowers China while weakening America's global position. O'Fallon warns that identity-based conflicts, migration pressures, and urban destabilization are fragmenting Western societies into competing tribal enclaves, leaving them vulnerable to foreign influence. He concludes that COVID-era restrictions, digital surveillance, and AI-driven governance signal a broader transition from a merit-based, liberty-oriented system to one that demands ideological compliance from both citizens and institutions.
