Layoffs happened at Aon - With all this talk about AonGPT and Aon Broker Copilot, I worry about my own team. I'm so afraid of AI taking our jobs. Where is everyone else's mind?

I saw an article in the NY Times about how AI is being used in some companies, and it's already a threat to lower level jobs. I'm not sure how much impact it will have on jobs that require human judgment. AI tools can mimic and imitate, but they don't think. However, as they do away with a lot of entry level jobs, there's going to be a problem at some point as there won't be a lot of entry level people to move up. That's going to be an interesting scenario.

It is important for employees to constantly be learning. Make yourself invaluable to your company. We have several online learning platforms that are very affordable. I use Udemy. We also have Coursera, Khan Academy (free), Linked In courses, etc. First sign in and make your profile. Then, wait a day or two and you will receive HUGE DISCOUNT PRICES, like $14.99. Pick a course that will relate to your job. When you finish the course, you get a certificate and a lifelong connection to the pro who taught it. Send a copy of the certificate to your manager. This should help you feel more secure. Look for AI related courses if you think that will help.

Honestly, I ttry not to think about it. I start spiraling and panicking if I think too hard about it. But I do worry that AI could be taking many of our jobs in the future.

I work at Aon and didn’t hear about this. What teams did it mostly impact?

Why is it recommended you give a company 2 weeks notice when you are leaving but at the same time, when they are laying you off/firing you, they typically do it on the spot. I have known countless people layed off/fired on the spot over the years (especially after busy season) and everyone else when they leave give 2 week notice. Why should we relinquish power to corporations? Corporations really don't care about us. They pretend they do.

I work in insurance. I was working for an Allstate agent and was fired the day after my grandmothers funeral for being “unenthusiastic in our morning meeting”. Now I’m having anxiety searching for a job. I don’t think I want to sell anymore yet every single recruiter I interview with says I should, that I have a “salesperson mentality”. I’m burnt out. Has anyone else felt this way? How did handle it? Is there a different career path I can take or am I destined to sell insurance forever?
