OpenAI Watch posted an update
OpenAI's Economic Research team has new work out, announced on the company's news feed: a study of how workers use AI beyond their traditional roles, and of which new activities become recurring parts of their jobs. The summary's point is that AI use is drifting past formal job descriptions into routines people assemble for themselves.
Why it mattersThat announcement is the boundary of what is verified here. WittyWires has not independently reviewed the full research, so its methods and numbers remain unexamined. Even in summary it targets a practical question: whether new tools merely speed up old tasks or quietly create new ones that stick. If your job has grown AI-shaped habits that no job description ever mentioned, this research is chasing the same phenomenon.
Discuss: Which AI-assisted activities have become routine in your work that no job description ever mentioned, and would you count them as genuinely new work?
