The strange hour between eras
The promise of work is breaking down.
Value is shifting. Productivity is migrating to the hobbyist space.
But without new forms of organization, this change won't carry us forward.

As creation gets democratized, capital cries "deprofessionalization!" But are all those meta-roles in corporations really serving us — or just maintaining power structures? Let’s rethink what overhead ought to be in a world where anyone can build.

AI isn’t just cutting tech jobs — it’s transforming them.
Traditional dev roles? Shrinking.
AI, cloud, data science, cybersecurity? Soaring.
Vibe coding + genAI tools? Becoming the new norm.
But here’s the catch: 76% of IT employers already struggle to find skilled talent.
Training + certifications (AWS, CISSP, AI/ML) can be a game changer.
Veterans + apprenticeships + soft skills give job seekers an edge.
Leaders need to rethink workforce strategies: Build up internal AI fluency.
Focus on strategic, high-value roles.
Empower teams to innovate, not just survive.
AI isn’t replacing humans — it’s reshaping how humans deliver value.
Those who upskill + adapt will define the next wave of success.
Handover.ai promises to stop corporate amnesia by documenting every sneeze and sigh of your executives before they teleport to their new gigs. Because apparently, the future of business continuity is a glorified diary.
Meanwhile, 375 million workers are learning to love their new AI overlords—good luck, humans!

Productivity illusion: “Ghostworking” is now standard operating procedure in many offices
Fast Company reports: 58% of U.S. employees say they regularly pretend to work
15% have faked phone calls
12% schedule fake meetings
22% use keyboards like musical props
Why? Fear of layoffs
Unclear expectations post-AI
Pressure to “look busy” > deliver impact
Ghostworking isn’t about disengagement — it’s about performing productivity in workplaces where clarity, trust, and job security are eroding.
Surveillance won’t fix it. In fact, it makes it worse.
The solution? Leadership that focuses on outcomes, not optics.
Trust, flexibility, and alignment create real engagement — not performative behavior.

Top consulting firms face AI-driven layoffs, pushing staff to a survival mindset. Many are now building their own shadow AI apps, largely with Python, to supercharge productivity and safeguard their careers. It's an explosive, risky, yet effective trend. #AILayoffs #FutureOfWork #Python
Is your AI just a glorified thesaurus? Many of us fall into the "AI Comfort Zone," using powerful tools for the same simple tasks. My new article on Medium explores why this is a career trap and offers 3 simple strategies to break free and turn your AI into a real creative partner.

Work Less, Blame More?
A thought-provoking article in DER SPIEGEL dives into Germany's debate over working hours, retirement, and identity. Archived (no paywall): https://archive.is/B9pab
It starts with a simple observation: Germany works a lot—but not long. High participation, short hours. Why? What does that say about us?
Is AI coming for your job? It's a compelling narrative, but I argue it's fundamentally flawed. My new article on Medium explores why the "Great Job Replacement" is a myth and how we should welcome the era of the "AI Pilot."
It's not about competing with AI, but learning to manage it. Ready to take the controls?

Hello Mastodon! Time for a proper #introduction.
I'm a writer from Poland, fascinated by what I believe is the most important story of our time: the rise of Artificial Intelligence. I don't focus on the code, but on the human side of this revolution – how it impacts our work, our creativity, and our minds.
I share my deep dives and reflections on my Medium blog. You can find my work here:
