A macroeconomic feature on task reallocation, Hulten's Theorem, and why the WEF projects a net gain of 78 million jobs worldwide by 2030.

What does the new hiring landscape actually look like?

A feature on the infrastructure layer, the inference economy, and who captures the gains as AI scales.

This feature traces that transformation through candid interviews with practitioners across five industries.

It has also, in practice, become one of the most systematically abused. An argument for distinguishing genuine transparency from its performance.

Three organisations share what they have learned. Case Study Torres, A. https://a2ip.unb.college/publications/magazine/articles/the-caio-playbook-what-every-chief-ai-officer-learned-in-year-one.html https://a2ip.unb.college/publications/magazine/articles/the-caio-playbook-what-every-chief-ai-officer-learned-in-year-one.html Wed, 22 Apr 2026 09:00:00 GMT The Chief AI Officer is one of the fastest-growing executive titles in the world. The first cohort of people who held it have now completed at least a year in the role. What have they actually learned — and what would they tell their successors?

The implications for research integrity, reproducibility, and trust in published science are only beginning to be reckoned with.
