CFA UK communities coffee chat: Will AI take my job?

Tuesday 08 December 2026 | 13:00 - 14:00 | Webinar

AI is changing the way we research, analyse, invest and make decisions. But what does this really mean for our jobs, skills and future careers? 

Will AI make investment professionals more productive or replace parts of their roles? Will we need stronger technical skills, or will human judgement, creativity and critical thinking become even more valuable? And how can we make sure we’re using AI to strengthen our capabilities rather than gradually surrendering them? 

Join CFA UK’s Technology & Innovation, Sustainability and Private Markets Communities for an informal, interactive coffee chat exploring the future of investment careers in the age of AI. 

We’ll kick off with a series of short, thought-provoking contributions from investment professionals, followed by small-group conversations in the moderated breakout rooms where you can exchange experiences, challenge assumptions and explore practical ways to prepare for the future. 

This isn’t a traditional webinar. It’s an opportunity to speak openly with peers, hear different perspectives and leave with fresh ideas and at least one practical action to help future-proof your career. 

What you’ll take away 

• Fresh perspectives on how AI is changing investment roles and professional skills.
• Ideas for maintaining critical thinking and independent investment judgement.
• Insights from peers across investment disciplines and career stages.
• Practical steps to strengthen your skills, confidence and career resilience.

Bring your coffee, your questions and your opinions. You don’t need to be an AI expert,  just curious about what comes next
