Jamie Lynn Cooke: AI Firing Freeze, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

AI Firing Freeze: Why fully-staffed organizations thrive in an AI-driven economy challenges one of the biggest assumptions in modern business; that artificial intelligence capabilities should automatically lead to workforce reduction.

As organizations race to implement AI chatbots, AI agents and agentic AI solutions, many are planning layoffs and hiring freezes in pursuit of short-term cost savings. But what if that strategy is fundamentally flawed?

Drawing on proven patterns of technological transformation, innovation, market expansion and real-world operational risks, AI Firing Freeze argues that the organizations most likely to thrive in an AI-driven economy will not be those that aggressively reduce headcount, but those that retain, repurpose and upskill their teams to work alongside AI for exponential results.

AI Firing Freeze shows you how to combine the strengths of AI with the human insight, critical thinking, experience, curation and governance your organization needs for success.

This book gives you clear guidance for maximizing the value - and minimizing the risk - of your AI solutions. It shows you how to leverage high-powered hybrid human and AI teams to run your operations; how to identify the AI initiatives that deliver the greatest ROI; how to inventory, monitor and manage all of your AI initiatives; how to secure your investments with AI governance; and how to ensure that every AI solution has the right level of supervision and human intervention to protect your organization.

Inside, readers will discover: Why human vision, creativity, judgement, quality control and expertise are critical differentiators in an AI-driven economy The hidden operational, financial, reputational and liability exposures of overreliance on AI with insufficient human involvement What is causing the "AI boomerang effect" and how to avoid that trap A step-by-step process for building your AI-empowered organization Role-specific guidance on leveraging your current teams Tools for realistic resource planning with hybrid human and AI teams How to establish an AI governance framework that helps your organization scale safely and sustainably.

AI Firing Freeze inspires your organization to see beyond the initial allure of using AI capabilities for quick overhead reductions. It shows you how to combine AI and human strengths to superpower your teams, unlock innovation, expand your markets, increase resilience and create sustainable long-term growth.
