🚀 How to level up in the AI era

Recommend starting from basic roles in 'data analysis + process optimization', then quickly advance to 'AI transformation consultant' or 'digital strategist' by mastering AI-enhanced decision analysis tools. Medium-term, move towards 'data-driven change manager', combining AI insights with organizational behavior. Long-term, become 'Chief AI Officer' or 'organizational change partner', focusing on human-machine collaboration design and high-level strategy.
