LinkedIn has taken a lot of criticism lately. But if you don't have a profile there, with a professional picture and at least 500 connections, you are drastically reducing your chances of receiving a call from a recruiter.

Kind of concerning to think about.
It’s almost incomprehensible how wide the distance is between someone who’s working at the frontier with AI and basically everyone else right now.
The crazy thing is these lines are not converging, but only growing farther apart. If the curve of AI progress had leveled off, it would certainly have given most people and companies time to catch up or implement their workflows in a standardized way. The technology would have neutralized competitive advantage because everyone would be using it the same way.
But what’s happened is the opposite. The curve of AI progress is basically going vertical right now, which means if you had codified your processes 3-6 months ago you’re likely already behind again. Now imagine most companies that kicked into gear a year ago and thought that they were done. Even further behind now.
I’ve never seen a technology in my life and career that improves at this rate, which consequently means you need to upgrade your expectations at a similar rate. Our brains weren’t wired for this, and our organizational change management processes certainly weren’t either.
With any form of recursive self improvement, things just get wilder. It’s a time when you will need to be constantly reevaluating the things that didn’t work just a couple months ago to see if they now can be solved. AI native companies certainly have a strong advantage due to this right now, so now it comes down to can the bigger companies keep up. Wild times.

Nobody has ever Trusted HR
Nobody Trusts HR, but Executives Swing the Ax
Leapsome data shows 81% of Human Resources (HR) leaders believe they champion employees in business decisions, but only 54% of individual contributors fully trust that pitch.
The rot comes from an impossible job description: protect the workers, then deliver layoffs drawn up in the corner office. Author Mark C. Crowley wants someone at the top owning employee well-being and every manager’s boss answering for it, so HR can quit playing referee.
