This drawing contrasts doing tasks with owning outcomes, showing how routine work is easily absorbed by automation while responsibility remains exposed. Value concentrates with those who apply judgment, provide context, and are accountable for results.
This contrasts the employee model, where output stops when effort stops, with the operator model, where systems continue to produce value. Building repeatable processes reduces risk by allowing effort to outlive time and energy
The drawing shows how skills based on rules, repetition and predictable output are easier to automate and therefore decline in value. Skills that involve judgment, accountability and trade-offs under uncertainty become more valuable because they are harder to replace.
