#4 The Fourth Age by Byron Reese

No Title

No Description

The premise of the book is that there have been four ages of innovation since the dawn of man. In this order, they are:

  • Fire
  • Agricultural
  • The wheel
  • And now, AI

We are now entering the fourth age and it will impact mankind as much or similarly as the first three. It's a pretty big claim, but Reese is also a proponent (it seems to me) that machines will not take over jobs, just create new ones - as was the case in the first three ages. As it relates to the business I am in, I believe AI is empowering and elevating roles, like those held by recruiters for instance, and allowing people to do more impactful work that they enjoy.
