This seems to be the case today, with the infamous analysis from Frey and Osborne also suggesting that professions like nurses would be little impacted by the wave of automation that was set to wash over us. The researchers also found that technology wasn’t negative in a uniform manner.

In articles in both the New York Times and The New Yorker earlier this year, the concept of brainstorming as introduced in the 1940's by Alex Osborn has been attacked as ineffective and linked to the concept of " Groupthink.". Collaborative innovation involves the genius of the "and" versus the tyranny of the "or."

Since Frey and Osborne’s hugely popular paper in 2014, the traditional narrative surrounding automation at work has been that millions of jobs will be lost to the march of technologies such as robotics and artificial intelligence.
