Technology is a catalyst that is reconfiguring every profession, from finance to medicine to media. Old verities about "useful" skills are disappearing into the cloud. Many students give the existential question "What do I want to be?" a simple response: "Employed." It is not obvious what skills that will require in a world in which algorithms rule. The most helpful way forward is to ask, "What skills and abilities are machines unlikely to learn in the foreseeable future?" These will be the skills and abilities that help us outsmart artificial intelligence (AI) and maintain our place in the professional world, and that students should therefore acquire if they hope to adapt to a technologically complex economy. In other words, are there skills and abilities that are likely to be beyond the scope of machine intelligence--at least for many years to come--and will lie only within the grasp of human minds? This article discusses how to preserve our human place in the professional world through education in the twenty-first century that focuses on developing skills and abilities that involve appreciating the effects of context, particularly as it bears on human emotion, motivation, and experience. Jobs that do not require these skills and abilities are most likely to fall prey to machines sooner rather than later.
