AI Replacement Trap

Believing AI's primary purpose is to replace human workers rather than enhance their capabilities

โš ๏ธ The Trap

The replacement trap is the loudest drum beating right nowโ€”'your job will be replaced by AI.' What started as sensible automation has evolved into the assumption that AI's primary purpose is replacing human work. When AI fights augmentation instead of enabling it, both humans and organizations lose the breakthrough possibilities that genuine collaboration creates.

Key Symptoms

  • โš ๏ธ AI projects framed around "headcount reduction"
  • โš ๏ธ Employee resistance and fear rather than excitement
  • โš ๏ธ Automation of dysfunction rather than enhancement of capability
  • โš ๏ธ Focus on "time savings" rather than "value creation"
  • โš ๏ธ AI bolted onto broken foundations
