"The Adaptation Advantage: Let Go, Learn Fast, and Thrive in the Future of Work" by Heather E. McGowan and Chris Shipley (2020) (http://bit.ly/3r8npRo)

"We are so focused on developing machine capabilities to perform cognitive work that we nearly fail to develop our uniquely human skills, and paradoxically we have trained humans to act more like machines. We are conditioned, for example, to respond to the stimulus of a smartphone alert and have trained ourselves to structure data in ways computers can understand. We test people on tasks that machines can do (retrieve information), rather than asking people to act more like humans (creating and collaborating). We ponder just how powerful silicon computing can become and yet we don't even know what humans are capable of doing" (p. 122).
