Something Big Is Happening: AI, Burnout, and the Future of Work
Published:
AI is transforming work in profound ways, but not in a single, linear direction. On one side, reports like the World Economic Forum’s “Four Futures for Jobs in the New Economy” and McKinsey’s estimates of up to 15–30% of hours that could be automated by 2030 show that displacement and job churn are likely, even if new roles are created in parallel [3][4]. At the same time, early labour‑market data from the Yale Budget Lab suggests that, so far, the overall impact on employment levels is still relatively modest and more evolutionary than catastrophic, which reminds us that a lot depends on how quickly workers and institutions adapt [5].

What is your motivation to do research?
Published:
I have asked myself this question many times, and it often arises when things become difficult. Especially when dealing with the less pleasant aspects of academia, such as hierarchies, informal power structures, politics, and the notion that status and influence sometimes take precedence over the quality or purpose of the work. I understand why this system exists and how it historically helped to assign credit and recognise contributions, but I do not fully identify with many of the practices that have become normalised. I am also not motivated by research whose primary goal is simply to be published. What really matters to me is the purpose of science, how research is conducted, and what each study is ultimately meant to contribute.
