Tim Denning argues that in the era of AI automation, productivity will no longer matter – creativity will become the essential skill. He proposes embracing 'unproductive' habits like walking in nature, daydreaming, writing freely, listening to evocative music, reading voraciously, and seeking solitude. These activities spark imagination, unlock deeper thinking, and fuel the kind of groundbreaking ideas humans will need to thrive alongside AI. The piece challenges the hustle culture of the past, inviting us to slow down and nurture our innate creativity.
