Wharton Professor Ethan Mollick cited his team's study at Procter and Gamble (P&G), noting that the introduction of AI is blurring traditional job boundaries and making organizational walls "porous."
He emphasized that companies must rethink their division of labor amidst this chaotic but potential-rich shift. If implemented properly, AI can provide a massive boost to both firm performance and individual employee satisfaction. A recent report from OpenAI echoes these findings.
