Where technology intersects with the Future of Work

Colin Fraser, Co founder and Partner at Nevis Capital and Stephanie explore the opportunities and challenges caused by generative AI technology, particularly in fields traditionally considered outside the realm of automation, such as creative professions and consulting.  
The conversation touches on the potential resistance to adopting AI tools in conservative professions like finance, insurance, and banking due to concerns about bias and regulation. Importantly the intentional management of biases in AI systems and the potential for AI to help make better decisions by removing bias and promoting better thinking.
The future of work is discussed in the context of social and cultural norms, technological advancements, and the environment. These three core components play a significant role in shaping the future of work.
They address the challenges faced by leaders of SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) in determining work arrangements, productivity, and performance in the office and remote settings. They emphasize the importance of teamwork, common goals, and avoiding a perception of privilege or punishment based on work location.
The conversation highlights the need for individualized approaches to work arrangements, recognizing that different individuals thrive in different environments. It's important to consider the unique circumstances and find ways to get the best out of each person.
