Everyone's panicking about AI replacing jobs. But a top economist just said the opposite is likely true.
You've probably felt it — the pressure to "do something with AI" before your competitors do. And if you've already bought a tool your team never opened, you know how fast that pressure turns into quiet regret.
You're not behind because you're slow. You're behind because the signal-to-noise ratio on AI is brutal right now.
Here's the actual insight worth paying attention to: Apollo's chief economist points to something called Jevons Paradox. When a new technology makes work cheaper and faster, businesses don't just do the same work for less. They do more. They expand. They hire. AI isn't shrinking the pie — it's likely growing it for business owners who learn to use it well.
That changes the question entirely. It's not "will AI hurt my business?" It's "which one repetitive task can I hand off to AI this month to free my team for higher-value work?"
Pick one task. One. Measure the time saved. That's your first win.
No ripping apart systems. No retraining everyone. Just one small proof point that builds your confidence and your case.
What's one task in your business you'd love to stop doing manually?
