Ashish Kothari argues that when AI makes work faster, leaders should give employees time back for rest and mentoring, not just pile on more tasks. He says the excuse of lacking time to develop talent disappears once you redirect AI's efficiency gains toward growing people.

There's an invitation to actually take that time. If you're an organizational leader and you're looking at the productivity gains that you can get, think about how you can take that. And rather than just say, "Let's do more," give space to people to take care of themselves. But more importantly, for leaders to develop the next level. One of the most common issues you hear is, "I don't have the time to develop others." Well, here's time. Use that to develop others and scale your human capacity.
