1Thanks for coming, you two; today let's discuss your first essay drafts on automation and employment.
2Mina, your central argument is certainly strong, but much of the evidence you cite is rather dated.
3I relied mainly on the Frey and Osborne paper because absolutely everyone seemed to reference it.
4That's understandable, though later economists sharply questioned its core assumption that occupations consist of fixed tasks.
5So should I replace it entirely, or keep it and add the more recent critiques?
6Keep it as a genuine landmark study, but frame it explicitly against the more recent task based models.
7Tom, your section on reskilling reads very well; the conclusion, however, simply repeats your introduction.
8I noticed that myself; would adding a policy recommendation about lifelong learning strengthen the ending?
9Possibly, but you must ensure the recommendation follows logically from your analysis, not from mere optimism.
10Both of you should submit revisions by Friday; the library workshop is optional after all.
11Actually, it's the referencing session that's compulsory, not the writing one, so please do attend.
