Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Jobs — SSB Lecturette Speech Outline
Tools, not Terminator — and who gets left behind. Use this outline under a 3-minute prep clock, then speak without reading.
Opening hook (~40 seconds)
AI will not take every job — but a person who uses AI will take the job of a person who refuses to learn.
Body — three points (~90 seconds)
- Routine writing, coding and customer support will shrink. Care, leadership, field craft and complex repair will not vanish.
- Schools must teach thinking and tools, not only rote answers — the same warning as graduate unemployment.
- Defence will use AI for maps, maintenance and cyber. Humans still own the ethical trigger.
Closing line (~50 seconds)
Treat AI as a junior clerk: useful, fast, never in command of your values.
What to avoid
Avoid science-fiction doom and avoid “AI will solve everything”.
