VC Fusheng: white-collar skills are devaluing, your new job is auditing and training AI agents
FuSheng_0306 · x · 2026-11-06
The author argues that white-collar skills requiring years of training—coding, design, reporting—are rapidly being mastered by AI, forcing a redefinition of many office roles.
He proposes two core human roles going forward:
- AI auditor: AI does the work first, humans verify the results
- AI trainer: feed AI the real-world context and experience it lacks, improving it iteratively
His conclusion: the future belongs to those who can manage more agents and leverage stronger AI productivity—judgment and direction outweigh hands-on execution skills.
