The NYT got together a panel of experts to explain how jobseekers should prepare for the future of work. It’s a fascinating discussion, and the panelists aren't homogeneous in their opinions on the subject. They sometimes contradict each other. It sheds light on how little even those regarded as experts know about how things will turn out.

The lack of consensus is troubling, but more so is the attitude of some of those consulted about efforts to ensure humans thrive in the new landscape.
