The AI energy boom is real. But between Green Horror and growth religion lies a third path: local models, edge AI, and public AI workshops.
With Viktor Frankl, this article asks what remains of work when AI takes over mere busyness and returns us to the question of meaning.
New Work is not an optimized job system, but a new work system built around reduced working time, high-tech self-provisioning, and calling.
New Work is more than a mainstream label: it is Bergmann’s critique of the job system and a proposal for a new work culture.
Calling is the work we really, really want: free work that helps people overcome poverty of desire and self-ignorance and become more alive.
Changing work can be approached quite pragmatically. It does not have to be an entirely new job; it does not have to be a leap into cold water, although for some people that might do them good after years of routine.
Frithjof Bergmann calls the job itself a “mild illness”: it does not kill us, but it constantly troubles us, makes us dissatisfied, drains us, takes our strength, exhausts and depresses us. In the long run, the job deforms and cripples us, so that not much of us as human beings remains when we retire.
