$1.5 million per day.

$1.5 million per day.

That's what Mercor's CEO announced they're paying humans to train AI on replacing those same humans.

The irony isn't lost on anyone.

Recently, I was having dinner in Lausanne after a long day of conference on the future of work. 

Brilliant coaches and thinkers around the table talking about artificial general intelligence arriving within three years. 

(That's the one with human-level intelligence, no training needed.)

We painted some doom scenarios. Massive job losses. Social unrest. The Matrix.

But then i started asking different questions. 

While we talked about dystopian futures, I also thought of some of the people I coached:

→ The executive who finally learned to have tough conversations

→ The team leader who found her real voice  

→ The manager who completely changed how he gives feedback

None of these changes came from getting information.

They came from something very human: sitting with discomfort, seeing patterns others miss, creating space for real change.

Yes, AI is getting smarter. Yes, it's learning from us faster than ever.

But there's something it can't learn in those training sessions.

That moment when someone finally gets not just what to do, but why it matters to them personally.

I believe there are deeply human things—empathy, meaning, connection—that can be copied but not truly replaced.

Our world is about to change. Big.

What's your take?
