    The Great Unbundling: How Artificial Intelligence is Redefining the Value of a Human Being

    View the full transcript and accompanying visualizations at ceoslibrary.com. Amazon Book: https://www.amazon.com/Great-Unbundling-Artificial-Intelligence-Redefining-ebook/dp/B0FGNR1YPK The single most important transformation of our time isn't a new app or a faster chip. It's a seismic shift that is actively rendering the skills you've spent a lifetime building obsolete. 💥 What if the very concept of a "job" is a relic of a bygone era? What if AI isn't just a new tool, but a "universal solvent" dissolving the very essence of human value? This isn't scaremongering; it's the stark, central argument of a groundbreaking new book that's being quietly read in the world's most influential boardrooms and strategy sessions. In "The Great Unbundling", futurist J Y Sterling reveals how the integrated "human package" that made our species dominant is being systematically deconstructed, function by function, by the relentless engine of AI. In this 30-minute deep dive, you'll discover: 1. **The "Inevitability Engine"** ⚙️: The three unstoppable forces (Capitalism, Geopolitics, and Governance) driving AI's exponential advance, and why you can't afford to ignore them. 2. **Why AI is NOT the next printing press**: Understand the critical difference between a technology that empowers humans and one that replaces human functions. 3. **The "Zero-Value Human" paradox**: What happens to society when the market price for human cognition, creativity, and labor trends toward zero? 4. **The critical choice between two futures**: Will you be a passive "ghost in the machine" or an active "New Artisan" in the unbundled world? 🧠 This episode is a must-listen for any leader, executive, or entrepreneur who wants to understand the foundational forces reshaping our economy and society. Don't just prepare for the future—understand the architecture it's being built on. Join the leaders and innovators who are preparing for the unbundled world. 📈
