This is the best summary I could come up with:


Our abilities to effectively communicate, develop empathy and think critically have allowed humans to collaborate, innovate and adapt for millenniums.

Workers who didn’t go to college and those who needed additional skills and wanted to take advantage of a lucrative job boom flocked to dozens of coding boot camps and online technical programs.

If we answer that question from a place of fear about what’s left for people in the age of A.I., we can end up conceding a diminished view of human capability.

When you do that, you find yourself focusing quickly on people skills that allow us to collaborate and innovate in ways technology can amplify but never replace.

Those not pursuing a four-year degree should look for those training providers that have long emphasized people skills and are invested in social capital development.

Along the way, we could meaningfully increase equity in our economy, in part by addressing the persistent gender gap that exists when we undervalue skills that women bring to work at a higher percentage than men.
