1 周Christopher, every tech revolution in history has created more net new jobs than it’s ever eliminated—and AI is no exception. The real shift isn’t about job loss, but about who gets the opportunities. Mastercard’s skills-first, AI-driven approach is a great example of using technology to widen the talent pool and future-proof the workforce. Companies that adapt fast will thrive—those that don’t will fall behind. Thanks for sharing this!
