Good discussion indeed. Erosion of entry level jobs, and changing the nature of work as we know it now are very very real. How far and in what directions Pakistan will pulsate with the change is yet to see, but unlike the "digital" revolution, AI is far more influential and consequential. As a CEO, I do not need many people any longer!

Pakistan has a #ChatGPT generation that can prompt and polish in seconds. What it still lacks is an AI generation that builds, deploys, and owns the systems underneath. Most universities keep producing consumers while the real leverage sits with creators. Watched Dure Akram’s conversation with @NaveedIftikhar of @atomcamp. Sharp, no-nonsense, and exactly the kind of clear-eyed discussion this gap needs. Well crafted podcast.

Lahore’s CBD (Central Business District) is setting a new benchmark for urban development in Pakistan, bringing together skyscrapers, corporate headquarters, government offices, residential and mixed-use districts, healthcare, education and hospitality within a modern metropolitan vision. It is time for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to pursue a similar vision. A CBD in Peshawar could attract international investment, generate employment for educated youth and skilled labour, and unlock the province’s economic potential. Development must rise above political cycles. Pakistan needs continuity of vision, modern infrastructure and bold execution. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa must look beyond outdated development models and take the decisive steps needed to build a city that can compete on the international stage. @fkkundi @CSKPOfficial
