More about The Skill Code: How to Save Human Ability in an Age of Intelligent Machines by Matt Beane
From one of the world’s top researchers on work and technology comes an insightful and surprising guide to protecting your skill in a world filling with AI and robots.

Think of your most valuable skill, the thing you can reliably do under pressure to deliver results. How did you learn it?

Whatever your job – plumber, attorney, teacher, surgeon – decades of research show that you achieved mastery by working with someone who knew more than you did. Formal learning—school and books—gave you conceptual knowledge, but you developed your skill by working with an expert.

House Rules       

·        Mute your audio when you are not speaking.

·        Once the book club discussion begins, any attendee will be welcome to ask questions and discuss the subject matter.

·        If for some reason you are not able to speak early enough to be heard, you can also use the chat function. Simply type into the chat that you have a comment. If you don't feel comfortable speaking, you can type your entire comment or question and the moderator will read it to the whole group.

·        Feel free to dress comfortably; we won't judge! We also won't judge if you choose to dress creatively.

·        Let's try to stay focused on the book or topic and avoid political views as much as possible. If the conversation steers too far from the topic at hand, the moderator will gently nudge everyone back.

Have your cocktail or mocktail of choice ready!
