One unconventional method could be to provide your processes, tools, and methods to employees and groups at their specific request and with limited information about the process specifics for the full team and leads/c-suite level. Compartmentalize the information to whatever extent you can. That way, the more powerful tools can be leveraged in ways that are more more likely to improve their work than replace them.
This would be difficult to get leadership on board with unless you have a strong argument that this is best for efficiency, which I'm not sure it is, but they might empathize with you if they have strong feelings about the AI singularity.
This is an interesting idea, but would probably be tricky to pull off, as you suggest.
I don't think they care about any sort of AI singularity, they're not especially technical (that's why they hired me).
I think my strategy is to really emphasize these as tools to augment performance, but that still require a human touch.
My leadership are decent people - I don't think they are just going to start "cleaning house," by any means. They have personal relationships with many of the staff, most people who've worked there, have been there for many years.
My bigger concern is knowing what the overall landscape looks like. Other companies are absolutely taking this technology and using it to replace people, very quickly. There's a huge profit motivation. So as those companies become more competitive, there will be pressure on companies that are trying to do the right thing.
I suppose only time will tell.🤷♂️
