Tim Davies argues AI will reshape knowledge work. Authors can use AI for editing and ideation to save time. Over 40% of code on GitHub now comes from AI tools like Copilot.
Over 40% (as stated in the chunk).
Anything that requires a brain and sat at a computer. Those sort of knowledge worker jobs there is going to be a huge impact over the next couple of years and we're just seeing it left right and center and obviously the blogs was the start but books now if you're writing a book and you're not using an AI assistant to help you edit and come up with ideas for that content and rework it and tie it back to the structure and summary of the book, then you're taking time that you don't need to take that you could be spending on something else. You could be out walking with the dog rather than sitting there editing your own work. And if you apply that to any number of different job types it's huge. When we look at code now over 40% of the code that's submitted to GitHub is AI produced through Copilot and that capability is now being replicated in a variety of different tech companies, software stacks.
