Council Post: AI Is Making People Smarter -- That Creates A New Problem For The Workforce

Igor Trunov, fundador de Ventora, says AI is changing how experience-based advantage works in knowledge jobs. He outlines three stages: first, AI helps people by giving less experienced workers access to capabilities that previously required deep expertise. He cites data showing widespread adoption—Microsoft and LinkedIn’s “2024 Work Trend Index Annual Report” found 75% of knowledge workers already use AI at work, while the World Economic Forum’s “Future of Jobs Report 2025” says 86% of employers expect AI and information-processing technologies to drive transformation by 2030. The second stage is an uncomfortable side effect: AI reduces differentiation by making people more similar. He points to hiring shifts where 66% of leaders prefer candidates with AI skills.
