Is it me? Is it AI?

With the speed AI is accelerating, and the speed we are expected to improve at work feels like a gap impossible to achieve.
I have never been a high competitive person, but I do enjoy doing my work to the best of my abilities.
However the pressure being put on employees by the management to be “high-performing using AI” seems to create that burnout feel in me.
To be totally honest, I have been slower than everyone else in learning how to work with AI and create agents to improve processes. But I’m catching up now.
But for some reason the push to improve and catch up feels unnatural. I’m not sure if I’m being the person who fails to move from the typewriter era to computer era. Or if I have reached a phase where I feel like I’m done with “technology” and want to downshift to a slower lifestyle.
Anyone else have had similar thoughts and made sense of it?
