I’ve spent the past two months vibe-coding an amazing project—honestly, it's something I’ve wanted to build for 30 years. And today, I'm finally sharing the beta here https://pcdnaiimpact.netlify.app/

Quick heads up before we get into it: please don't share this with anyone else just yet. We’re only sending to people in our community and some peers for now to get lots of feedback and input.

Welcome to AI and Impact Careers. It’s a one-stop shop to help impact professionals prepare for the future of work today.

We completely ditched the hype and the doom. Instead, we built something evidence-based that looks at how the nature of careers is actually changing.

Since it's a beta, it still needs some features, but right now we’ve got real news, deep dives on upskilling, a salary negotiator, a brilliant career coach and some actual humor. There’s even a safe space to ask all those AI questions you’re afraid to ask.

Right now, I just want you to test it. Break it. Help us understand what works.

Because it is a beta, not everything is perfect yet. The specific job listings aren’t fully live, for example, but there is an amazing job board in there right now to explore.

So, go check it out this week. Let us know if you feel inspired, terrified, or if it makes you want to quit your job and open a bookstore. All of that is valid.

To help us out, just click on "Beta Feedback" at the top of the site and tell us what breaks, what’s missing, and what makes you roll your eyes.

Anyone who leaves feedback and enters their emails gets entered to win one of five six-month Career Digest subscriptions.

Thanks for taking a look and helping us build this. Really.

🤖 Your Daily AI Impact Joke

Why did the responsible AI researcher bring a ladder to work?
Because the field keeps saying it wants higher standards.

China blocks Meta from acquiring AI startup Manus — A reminder that AI competition is no longer just about model releases and startup valuations; geopolitics is increasingly steering who can buy what, and where frontier capacity can consolidate.

OpenAI is under scrutiny after two mass shooters used ChatGPT to plan attacks — One of the clearest signals this week that AI safety is shifting from abstract debate to public accountability, especially around platform design, crisis escalation, and preventable harms.

The challenge of civic trust as AI plays a bigger role in public management — As governments automate more public-facing functions, the real issue is not just efficiency but whether people trust the systems making decisions that affect their lives.

Meta to start capturing employee mouse movements, keystrokes for AI training — This is a labor and governance story as much as an AI story, because it pushes surveillance deeper into the workplace under the banner of model improvement.

AI-designed drugs by a DeepMind spinoff are headed to human trials — A more hopeful signal this week: AI’s most meaningful near-term breakthroughs may come less from chatbots and more from high-stakes domains like medicine where better tools can materially improve lives.
