AI is making talent invisible – that is a problem for organisations
The link between a polished piece of work and the effort and judgment behind it is weakening
A FEW weeks ago, a friend sent me a message about a post I had written on LinkedIn. In it, I described an academic who had criticised writing with the assistance of artificial intelligence – but was later accused of relying on it himself.
My friend ignored the professor and went straight for me. “Your post itself shows obvious signs of AI writing,” he said. “Do you see the irony?”
I have been turning that question over ever since, not because he had called me out, but because the exchange gestured at something larger than AI. It pointed to the processes we use to judge one another.
