Your focus on cross-disciplinary learning strikes a chord. I sometimes wonder if AI will break down this intense focus on specialization that has become so predominant. There seems to be a growing need for the ability to zoom out and see holistically. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
Great post, very insightful. Our curiosity, imagination, and creativity are our main differentiators from AI and automation. Regardless of your role, trade, craft, or using your creative imagination can contribute to outcomes that structured, mundane, unitasking would never have been able to, well, imagine.

Perhaps this book is for you: “Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World” by David Epstein.
Thanks for the recommendation!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Kevin.
Man, this is so dead on. Curiosity and creativity certainly seem to be in short supply now, when they are needed most. Well said!
